Video Description

Thanks to Westcott, PetaPixel's preferred lighting partner! In this episode, we used the Westcott FJ400 Strobe: https://www.fjwestcott.com/products/fj400-strobe-400ws-with-ac-dc-battery?sca_ref=4142132.p5qzF50h12 And Beauty Dish Switch by Manny Ortiz: https://www.fjwestcott.com/products/beauty-dish-switch-by-manny-ortiz-36?sca_ref=4142132.p5qzF50h12 — Correction: The Sigma 200mm f/2 does not accept teleconverters in either E-Mount OR L-Mount. The Sigma 200mm f/2 DG Sport brings a classic sports photography lens to modern mirrorless cameras (the first lens maker to do so). Chris Niccolls went to an Okotoks Dawgs baseball game to put this lens to the test for its intended purpose, shooting action in low light. How did it perform as the light went down? Watch and learn!
