DPReview TV: Sigma 70mm F2.8 DG Macro Art lens review

Anonymous:Thought you might enjoy seeing this – a short film that I made for the RCMP and Canadian Forces, filming their “Toys for the North” cause with a Panasonic G9, 12-60mm f3.5-5.6 lens, on a PilotFly H2 for creating super smooth video! The G9’s Dual IS outperforms the GH5, so it’s one of the most stable filming platforms out there. Filming the day was like filming a wedding, but with much higher stakes and waaaaaay more intensity… but I had a blast! (4K): https://youtu.be/w67ar2W0M1Y Merry Christmas & Happy New Year! Cheers, Chris :)
