Reader Comment: Zeiss Batis or Sigma Art FE?
Get Sony A7R III and Zeiss Batis and Sigma DG HSM Art at B&H Photo and see my Sony mirrorless wish list.

For travel portraits would you recommend the Zeiss Batis or Sigma Art E-mount version on the Sony A7R111, any clear advantage in one line over the other?
DIGLLOYD: that’s an easy one. For travel, no way would I want to carry the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art—it is very large and heavy by comparison, awkwardly so on the too-small Sony A7R III (speaking in terms of my likes and dislikes). The fact that the Sigma 85/1.4A takes 86mm filters versus the 67mm filters of the 475-gram Zeiss Batis 85mm f/1.4 Sonnar should give some hint.
