Thats where im at with it all the time man, couldn't have said it better myself. Im just starting my youtube channel and im not in love with the image im getting from my 24-70 gmaster and been entertaining getting a 24mm 1.4 because i really want a sharp wide prime. I even tested out the 12-24 the other day in the store with my camera and the test footage is effin bananas!! Like i was mind blown. Anyways the struggle continues lol
I think the only logical sense from this trade is, you've got a much more expensive lens for a lot less. Other than that ...the rest of ur reasons don't make sense cos a prime has its place and a zoom lens has its place too. When shooting with a prime...ur mind shouldn't be even considering shots at other focal lengths. Also the decision to put on a prime lens on ur body in the first place is based on what you are about to shoot. If u r gonna be shooting a scene where u are the only photographer and the client is expecting a variety of photos, then u either have 2 bodies with primes on them or a single body with a zoom that covers the focal ranges of both the primes or have 2 photographers. So yea ...I think you need both..the prime and the zoom and use them as per requirement of the job. I think u know this and that the only real reason you went ahead with the deal is cos u were getting the better end of itl. With the money saved from the exchange, you are going to buy the 24mm 1.4 back in some time. Haha..only time will tell!

Question man.. you said you were able to get apsc lense on the a7s3, cropped in post and still got 4k.. how? When i read online, the a7s3 with a 1 to 1 pixel readout will do only full hd when apsc crop mode. I know you said you cropped in post but crop is crop.. I just really want to know if i can turn a 35mm into a 50mm with apsc and still get 4k
To me, 24mm has never been wide enough and 70mm never long enough. 24-70 is no doubt a range that I can do without. 16-35, 70-200 coupled with some primes was the way to go for me. Surely, this has been the case for me and my style of photography and might not be the best for many people out there.
Hi men... great stuff, can you do a compare from the sigma 16mm to the sony 20mm when you have the chance, I wander if the stabilising crops just enough to avoid the vignetting. peace.
The thing i love about this is that you identified what your use case is and picked the right tools for that job. I've got the 24 GM with the tamron 28-75, and couldn't be happier with the pair. You've gotta have a normal range zoom in your kit!
When I first started doing weddings years ago, I used a 24-70 because that's what was taught to do. Years later when I switched to Sony, I traded my zooms for f/1.4 primes and two dual cameras. That kinda worked for a while, but then I got the Sigma 24-70 and used that for my weddings, and it's been such a relief! I forgot that I could cover 80% of the wedding day with just one camera and lens, and just switch to a 14-24 or 70-200 for the little bit of time that I would need them. The other advantage was that with that particular lens, the minimum autofocus distance is INSANELY close..like to the tip of the lens hood close, which makes it perfect for detail and pseudo-macro shots! Some say that primes are sharper than zooms, but that's relative. Some say that the bokeh is better on primes, but that's also relative, and dependent on personal preference. Sure, you'll get 2-stops of light difference for less noise, but the Sony files give lots of room for adjusting and noise reduction in editing. Regardless, it is always good to use the gear that works for YOU!
Thank you for this comment. I currently own 2 prime lenses from the sigma trio for my APS-C and I will upgrade to a full frame in the future. I shoot families on occasion but I mainly use my camera for making contents, as that’s how I am learning. Even in a controlled environment like mine, I already find changing lenses to be a hassle especially when I use a gimbal. I can imagine that being more so for you on your wedding shoots. I am definitely considering the 24-70. Cheers.
Very nice video too!! I would love to see a bit more footage since at the end of the day for me that is the main reason unless of course you say we are going to talk lots about a lens. You information is great. I am going to wait however for an update of 24-70 since it has not been updated for a very long time and pair it with A1. Since 135 - 1.8 is a much newer lens I am curious to see what happens. Have you tried to the 135 1.8 GM? If not when will you? That should be cool I would think. Keep crushing it!
I'd suggest check the tamron out. IQ is incredible for the size and price. I would either pick the tamron on a budget or the gm for the absolute best. I've seen quite a few reviews comparing the tamron to the gm and I really couldn't tell a difference. I've had the tamron for more than a year now and it's my favourite
@Whatever Keeps You Calm true it also depends on what you do. I tend to shoot on gimbal and 28-70 is my most used. My arms are probably weak to constantly handle the sigma on a gimbal
Thats why I like the combo of 24, 55 & 24-105 - can break out the zoom if you get sick of changing lenses. But if I was doing paid work I’d go for two bodies - stick the 24 on one and a 55 or 85 on the other. That’s a no compromise setup that’s easier to use.
Both are great choices. The a7iii is really good in low light also. The siii obviously has the advantage tho. But it’s also almost double the price. I refuse to sell either. I still love my a7iii
is the 2.8 a big deal for your talkin head set up? i know you are a sony shooter but im lookin at some lens for my fuji. just gathering some knowledge. great video!
Totally second your decision as a zoom lens dude myself! Having shot weddings for 6 years now I can't tell you enough how zoom lenses have saved my life in those moments when you have a split second to capture the shot. I would like to get the 24-70GM but it's too $ so currently stuck with the Tamron 28-75 f2.8.
Stumbled across your video by accident. Dope video, entertaining, and you in the gym. Had to sub. I'll check out more of your videos this week. PEACE from ATL ✊🏾📸
Yea I picked up 16-35 G Master and it doesn’t leave my camera ever. On the A7iii plus crop mode, plus clear image zoom, I can’t miss. The 24-70 I think was a smart move for all the reasons you mentioned.
@@Altai22 how and why would a "pro" need to carry 6 or 7 cameras with mounted lenses on? As if more is better and someone likes to carry like 20 kg of gear.2-3 lenses for event photography maybe if you need the low-light capability of a 1.4 prime or something.New modern zoom lenses are incredibly sharp and i´d say if you compare a excellent zoom with a mediocre prime with high aperture - i´d take the zoom. It all depends on ur needs and what genre you are specialised in. Landscape photographs mostly carry 2-3 lenses i´d say because if you travel and hike around areas - every pound you can save starts to count and you have the time to change lenses and arent in need of multiple bodies.
Yeah I’m thinking of adding the 24-70 Sigma to my kit! I’m in love with my 35mm 1.4 right now!The advantages of the versatility vs the 1.4 is really something I’ve been trying to figure out. That 82mm filter scares me though! Gonna cost me some cash when I get filters.
I agree. I have a few primes, but I use the 24-70 for almost everything. The image is sick and the the 2.8 is still amazing for most situations. It just makes run and gun so much easier
Ok so I have the 24mm and a few months ago bought a 24-70 and had the exact same issue as you. My workflow isn’t compatible with constantly changing lenses. I’ve got a buyer lined up for my 24 for this weekend and now I’m watching videos of 24s bc I’m on the fence lmao. Thanks for continuing to convince me
The other option would have been to have kept the 24/1.4 & I think you mentioned in a prior video that you had a 85GM already, so just to have bought a second body. This way, you’d have instant access to both 24 & 85 and both at 1.4, and if you are doing paid work, it also gives you the safety net of a back up body should something go wrong.
Hell of a deal. I have the 24-105 for now but I’m eyeing that one for the future. I thought you were going to say the 20mm from the beginning. I’m loving mine so far.
TerryWarfield ah thanks for the reply. I bought your luts and have been using your settings. My IG is rednyc_ I would love your feed back on some of my recent videos. I love the look you pull out of the A7iii
Great video! I’m on Canon and I loooooove the 24 1.4 but the versatility of 24-70 2.8 is huge and I’m not made of money so can’t really do both and I love a simple kit. Gonna make the switch. 🥂
Thank You For The Video I Have The Sigma 24-70mm Lens And Was Thinking About Getting The 24mm GM For Video And Your Video Help A lot With My Decision .
What the heck man, you only have 18k subscribers? This video was clutch, I think you talked me into getting the 24mm and probably putting the 24-70mm on my list.
Hi! Great video! Glad you mentioned the Sigma 16mm dc I'm thinking of Samyang 18mm 2.8 or the Sigma 16mm 1.4 for real estate. Any suggestions? Btw I subscribed can't wait to see more videos love your personality and flow
For real estate you will typically want to be find a lens that’s between 12-16mm. The sigma 16mm f1.4 is a crop lens, so no matter the camera you put it on, the effective field of view you will get with it is about 24mm. I would look at a full frame wide lens for real estate. Having a 24mm focal length for small rooms like bathrooms can be VERY challenging to work with
@@TerryWarfield thanks for replying greatly appreciate it! I need a budget lens starting out and it's going to more than likely have to be a prime. I'll keep looking for a used one. Thanks so much!
That's why I use 2 bodies with 2 primes. But still sometimes I feel like a 24-70 could be much better. However if I have the time or want to get creative, primes are a joy to use.
You’re not crazy. I bought a Sigma 24-70 when I bought my A7C and it’s literally the only lens I own and I use it for everything! However now that I have the A7IV I wish I had Sony G master so I could have better active stabilization on top of that new focus breathing compensation feature that added
Yo Terry create video as always like to hear the opinion pieces and the perspective. But I definitely do see with the A7S3 that the shadows are opening up nicely what Kodak you using definitely more forgiving in the shadow area there like that. Peace
My wife and I just went the opposite direction. A big reason we can do that is that we have 2 camera bodies. So we will be using the 24mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.4. We shoot a lot of low light type of situations and having the extra stop was important to us. That being said the 24-70mm is an amazing lens and it makes perfect sense for the trade.
I remember when you got that and I remember a *very* hyped man. You must mean what you say about that 24-70. I own the Canon L (their high end line, red ring around the front) versions of both their 24mm f1.4 and 24-70 f/2.8 and have experienced the same results. Sharp af and versatile. These days I only use the prime in the club. I do lots of party/crowd/on the dance floor shoots for a DJ company and it reigns supreme in that setting, but for everything else it’s the 24-70 or my 70-200L big grey lady. Zoom FTW if we’re talking high end copies like the G-Master and the L Series. Man your videos are getting better each time you release. Production on point. (One critique: Yo. Got to your fonts folder on your computer and delete the following fonts: Arial, Comic Sans, and Papyrus. You’ll thank me later. They’re a punchline in the design world for a reason. Overuse, and by all the wrong people. I caught a whiff of Papyrus at the beginning. Said this out of love. Get a second opinion, ask any designer friend about those three fonts)
Subbed and loved, Terry, You should check out the mtf charts and see why the gmaster zooms are so good, also, check out the 135mm gm prime, its one of the sharpest lenses possibly ever made, of any brand.. Absolute beastmode of a lens.. Love the channel man!
I am also for the zooms just that they are expensive especially hm. And then maybe buy primes for favorite or rare focal lengths - for studio stuff. Outside run n gun situstion its annoying to change lenses yes. Though you can do so much iwth 20mm or 24mm
Saw the 16-35GM at Best Buy and it’s not as big as I expected. Loved the compactness of that zoom. But then again I have the 24-70GM so anything is going to be small for me lol.
oh same, I was about to say cause I own the 24-70 GM and it’s a work out but you get used to it 😅 it’s heavier than the 16-35 GM so now I’m Like oh that’s LIGHT work 🤣
Gangsta mode haha. I have the tamron 28-70 for my A7iii and the 17-28 for a7siii (in route). Hoping to be a good combo..perhaps sell the 17-28 for the Sony 20 at some point...but liking it so far, and the fact to really be able to ‘match’ cameras when i shoot events etc (since both will be Sony/Tamron). Now..will I be able to match the old a7iii colors with the new a7siii glory. Time will tell..haha. Good problems to have.
Having the same predicament, although don’t want sell my 24mm gm - unsure to either go for the 24-70gm or the Sigma 24-70! Only thing pointing me to the gm is that I saw a comment on Facebook that the sigma is prone to dust, not sure how true this is thou! Good review by the way I’m new to your channel!
I heard this too. Sand gets in and you can’t get it out. The gm is better weather proofed. I’m torn between the gm or the sigma, £500 difference where I am.. which to go for!!!
Hey Terry, you make that 24-70 GM look good! I am weakling so I have the 24f1.4GM plus the Tamron 28-75. I am very happy with this combo but since I purchased those lenses the 20 f1.8G lens and now the new Sigma 24-70 have come out and that is a tempting combo. Don't overlook the Tamron 17-28 lens - super sharp but I wish it went to 35mm for versatility. You made a great trade!
I've been primarily using the 28-75 Tamron for all my freelance work (A mixture of theatre/corporate/b-roll segments for small businesses) and I'm looking to either get a 24mm or a 85mm... Not sure which one will help to add more versatility to my filming. I 95% of the time do video and feel that the 24mm (Thinking samyang or viltrox 1.8 oppose to the 1.4 purely cause of the price tag) may add that versatility of getting some wide shots + I could use it for my talking head videos I do on youtube. Do you have any advice for me? The 85mm 1.8 looks so tempting as well, but that would be more for my enjoyment in photography and not directly for my videography. Thanks in advanced!
@@ridhish.visuals The 24 f1.4 GM is a lovely lens and would probably give you much more versatility . Save up for it! 85f1.8 is nice but I rarely reach for it since I own zoom telephoto lenses that work just as well for portrait work and don't forget that you can always crop in with the Tamron - hope that helps!
@@chryseass.5143 :') I've heard beautiful things about the 1.4 24mm... Looks like it'll be the one I reach for then! Thanks a bunch! (Do you have a portfolio of your work, i'd be interested to see some of your work)
My first lense was a sony 16-35 GM. Wish I would have went with the 24-70 GM. Much more versatile. I almost never shoot at 16mm. Mostly, 24-85mm. I did just pick up the 24mm GM. Havent got a chance to use it much. Hoping to over winter break. Thanks for the video. Watch out for those Zoom haters...!
U saved my money right now cuz i was looking into the 24mm & I already had the 24-70 GM...and you’ve reminded me that I NEED TO USE IT MORE OFTEN lol Thanks man!
Never sacrifice the Toneh.

To me, 24mm has never been wide enough and 70mm never long enough. 24-70 is no doubt a range that I can do without. 16-35, 70-200 coupled with some primes was the way to go for me. Surely, this has been the case for me and my style of photography and might not be the best for many people out there.

It’s honestly more than good enough. Only us snobs love shooting at 1.4 lol
You got a sweet deal! Now tell me the 16mm sigma, how much vignetting are you getting and how much cropping do you have to do?
Actually making an entire video on this. But had to crop in about 15-20% to get rid of the vignette and back to a 24mm equivalent FOV
Totally second your decision as a zoom lens dude myself! Having shot weddings for 6 years now I can't tell you enough how zoom lenses have saved my life in those moments when you have a split second to capture the shot.
I would like to get the 24-70GM but it's too $ so currently stuck with the Tamron 28-75 f2.8.
Yeah this zoom is clutch. And why not shoot for the sigma 24-70? It’s literally just as good as the Gm for a thousand bucks cheaper

Get yourself a second body and rock two prime lenses. Ideal set up with no compromise on image quality.
That’s exactly my thoughts as soon as I heard his complaints.
Agreed.
Pretty sure most pros carry at least 6 or maybe 7 cameras with different lenses on their bodies at all times.

I think that sigma 24-70 is the wave! If i had to BUY one I for sure would have gotten the sigma
Great energy. Wish you all the best!
Subbed mate. I brought and sold the 24 twice now, settled on the 20 and hopefully pick up the rumoured 16mm GM next year.
That's a nice come up! I use the 24-70 Sigma myself.
Smooth deal to me. I'd do like you said tho and resale for the sigma or tamron 24-70 and the 24 1.4
I agree. I have a few primes, but I use the 24-70 for almost everything. The image is sick and the the 2.8 is still amazing for most situations. It just makes run and gun so much easier
Bro you came up. Great video, im impressed.
Ok so I have the 24mm and a few months ago bought a 24-70 and had the exact same issue as you. My workflow isn’t compatible with constantly changing lenses. I’ve got a buyer lined up for my 24 for this weekend and now I’m watching videos of 24s bc I’m on the fence lmao. Thanks for continuing to convince me
The other option would have been to have kept the 24/1.4 & I think you mentioned in a prior video that you had a 85GM already, so just to have bought a second body. This way, you’d have instant access to both 24 & 85 and both at 1.4, and if you are doing paid work, it also gives you the safety net of a back up body should something go wrong.
Felt like I was in math class at the end of the video lol Dope vid bruh
😂😂😂
Does anyone has an issue with this lens 24-70 gm II to rattle what you move it without the camera on?
Hell of a deal. I have the 24-105 for now but I’m eyeing that one for the future. I thought you were going to say the 20mm from the beginning. I’m loving mine so far.
Haha. I love the 20mm too. I’m going to end up buying one or either another 24mm once I have some more money saved up
hey are you still using HLG3??
I bounce back and forth between HLG3 and Slog3 on the a7siii. On the A7iii I still use HLG3
TerryWarfield ah thanks for the reply. I bought your luts and have been using your settings. My IG is rednyc_ I would love your feed back on some of my recent videos. I love the look you pull out of the A7iii
Great video! I’m on Canon and I loooooove the 24 1.4 but the versatility of 24-70 2.8 is huge and I’m not made of money so can’t really do both and I love a simple kit. Gonna make the switch. 🥂
Great video! Still debating on Sony vs Sigma
Thank You For The Video I Have The Sigma 24-70mm Lens And Was Thinking About Getting The 24mm GM For Video And Your Video Help A lot With My Decision .
What the heck man, you only have 18k subscribers? This video was clutch, I think you talked me into getting the 24mm and probably putting the 24-70mm on my list.
Great deal for that 24-70. Also what is that cage you have? Small rig?
Yep! Link is in the description
Hi! Great video! Glad you mentioned the Sigma 16mm dc I'm thinking of Samyang 18mm 2.8 or the Sigma 16mm 1.4 for real estate. Any suggestions? Btw I subscribed can't wait to see more videos love your personality and flow
For real estate you will typically want to be find a lens that’s between 12-16mm. The sigma 16mm f1.4 is a crop lens, so no matter the camera you put it on, the effective field of view you will get with it is about 24mm. I would look at a full frame wide lens for real estate. Having a 24mm focal length for small rooms like bathrooms can be VERY challenging to work with
@@TerryWarfield thanks for replying greatly appreciate it! I need a budget lens starting out and it's going to more than likely have to be a prime. I'll keep looking for a used one. Thanks so much!
Sounds like a heck of a trade! I would have done the same thing man! I've been looking at that Sigma 24-70 for the Sony A7C.
Cool video and comparison!
Thanks man!
The video looked great! The crop lens doesn't look bad at all!
Thanks you! For sure it works!
I did the same exact thing with the 24-70 GM but I had a 40mm batis and 24-70 f4. It's a great lens!
That's why I use 2 bodies with 2 primes. But still sometimes I feel like a 24-70 could be much better. However if I have the time or want to get creative, primes are a joy to use.
4:38 Probably you need a second camera, one with a specialized lens?
what a deal! The 24-70/2.8 used is just about the same price of a 24mm so I'm not too surprised he did a straight trade.
Yeah I found that out today lol
😆
But the 24mm was also used.
You’re not crazy. I bought a Sigma 24-70 when I bought my A7C and it’s literally the only lens I own and I use it for everything! However now that I have the A7IV I wish I had Sony G master so I could have better active stabilization on top of that new focus breathing compensation feature that added
Nice to see you hear bro!
Yo Terry create video as always like to hear the opinion pieces and the perspective. But I definitely do see with the A7S3 that the shadows are opening up nicely what Kodak you using definitely more forgiving in the shadow area there like that. Peace
My wife and I just went the opposite direction. A big reason we can do that is that we have 2 camera bodies. So we will be using the 24mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.4. We shoot a lot of low light type of situations and having the extra stop was important to us. That being said the 24-70mm is an amazing lens and it makes perfect sense for the trade.
I have the tamron 28-75 2.8 it’s a hell of a lens
Bro, your videos are a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of CZcams photographers out there. Keep it up - love your stuff! - J
My only opinion is would it not be easier to have a second body. Be it something like a7iii etc.
That’s a major trade-up man. Cheers. Just ordered the 24-70 Sigma myself!
I got the 24-70 2.8 tamron G2. Super versatile for just about any situation.
Great thoughts. Just gotta say, the Sigma 24-70 is amazing BUT the dust accumulation inside is so bad 😭 I’m selling and getting the 24 1.4
I remember when you got that and I remember a *very* hyped man. You must mean what you say about that 24-70. I own the Canon L (their high end line, red ring around the front) versions of both their 24mm f1.4 and 24-70 f/2.8 and have experienced the same results. Sharp af and versatile. These days I only use the prime in the club. I do lots of party/crowd/on the dance floor shoots for a DJ company and it reigns supreme in that setting, but for everything else it’s the 24-70 or my 70-200L big grey lady. Zoom FTW if we’re talking high end copies like the G-Master and the L Series. Man your videos are getting better each time you release. Production on point.
(One critique: Yo. Got to your fonts folder on your computer and delete the following fonts: Arial, Comic Sans, and Papyrus. You’ll thank me later. They’re a punchline in the design world for a reason. Overuse, and by all the wrong people. I caught a whiff of Papyrus at the beginning. Said this out of love. Get a second opinion, ask any designer friend about those three fonts)
Subbed and loved, Terry, You should check out the mtf charts and see why the gmaster zooms are so good, also, check out the 135mm gm prime, its one of the sharpest lenses possibly ever made, of any brand.. Absolute beastmode of a lens.. Love the channel man!
16-35mm f2.8 GM
70-200 f2.8 GM
50MM f1.4 Zeiss
85mm f1.8 Zeiss
35mm F2.8 Zeiss
I have primes in between 24-70 that i don't know if i still need one. 😪
Had my sub at “gangsta mode” 😂
Haha my guy
I was ready to flame you for the trade until you said you swapped straight up, no cash on top. You hit a lick with this one. No brainer
😂😂😂😂
I am also for the zooms just that they are expensive especially hm. And then maybe buy primes for favorite or rare focal lengths - for studio stuff. Outside run n gun situstion its annoying to change lenses yes. Though you can do so much iwth 20mm or 24mm
Saw the 16-35GM at Best Buy and it’s not as big as I expected. Loved the compactness of that zoom. But then again I have the 24-70GM so anything is going to be small for me lol.
Man this bad boy is MASSIVE lol
oh same, I was about to say cause I own the 24-70 GM and it’s a work out but you get used to it 😅 it’s heavier than the 16-35 GM so now I’m
Like oh that’s LIGHT work 🤣
Gangsta mode haha. I have the tamron 28-70 for my A7iii and the 17-28 for a7siii (in route). Hoping to be a good combo..perhaps sell the 17-28 for the Sony 20 at some point...but liking it so far, and the fact to really be able to ‘match’ cameras when i shoot events etc (since both will be Sony/Tamron). Now..will I be able to match the old a7iii colors with the new a7siii glory. Time will tell..haha. Good problems to have.
What a nice deal man . Nice trade . Keep creating the best that you already do . Nice video terry 👍
Thanks bro! I really appreciate that!
Having the same predicament, although don’t want sell my 24mm gm - unsure to either go for the 24-70gm or the Sigma 24-70! Only thing pointing me to the gm is that I saw a comment on Facebook that the sigma is prone to dust, not sure how true this is thou! Good review by the way I’m new to your channel!
I heard this too. Sand gets in and you can’t get it out. The gm is better weather proofed. I’m torn between the gm or the sigma, £500 difference where I am.. which to go for!!!
Hey Terry, you make that 24-70 GM look good! I am weakling so I have the 24f1.4GM plus the Tamron 28-75. I am very happy with this combo but since I purchased those lenses the 20 f1.8G lens and now the new Sigma 24-70 have come out and that is a tempting combo. Don't overlook the Tamron 17-28 lens - super sharp but I wish it went to 35mm for versatility. You made a great trade!
I've been primarily using the 28-75 Tamron for all my freelance work (A mixture of theatre/corporate/b-roll segments for small businesses) and I'm looking to either get a 24mm or a 85mm... Not sure which one will help to add more versatility to my filming. I 95% of the time do video and feel that the 24mm (Thinking samyang or viltrox 1.8 oppose to the 1.4 purely cause of the price tag) may add that versatility of getting some wide shots + I could use it for my talking head videos I do on youtube. Do you have any advice for me? The 85mm 1.8 looks so tempting as well, but that would be more for my enjoyment in photography and not directly for my videography. Thanks in advanced!
@@ridhish.visuals The 24 f1.4 GM is a lovely lens and would probably give you much more versatility . Save up for it! 85f1.8 is nice but I rarely reach for it since I own zoom telephoto lenses that work just as well for portrait work and don't forget that you can always crop in with the Tamron - hope that helps!
@@chryseass.5143 :') I've heard beautiful things about the 1.4 24mm... Looks like it'll be the one I reach for then! Thanks a bunch! (Do you have a portfolio of your work, i'd be interested to see some of your work)
I totally get it. I have an 85mm GM and hated swopping out lenses all the time. So got the Sigma 24 to 70mm and never looked back
Great vid!
My first lense was a sony 16-35 GM. Wish I would have went with the 24-70 GM. Much more versatile. I almost never shoot at 16mm. Mostly, 24-85mm. I did just pick up the 24mm GM. Havent got a chance to use it much. Hoping to over winter break. Thanks for the video. Watch out for those Zoom haters...!
Same. I really wanted the 16-35 at first but now that I have the 24-70, I think it’s a much better fit for my usage
U saved my money right now cuz i was looking into the 24mm & I already had the 24-70 GM...and you’ve reminded me that I NEED TO USE IT MORE OFTEN lol Thanks man!
Nice 👍 I also sold my 24mm 1.4gm after one year..it's a great lens but too wide. I think 35mm 1.4 GM will be soon announced.
THANKS FOR SHARING! NEW FANS HERE
Wow! What a lucky trade! Great lens!
