    Dude, this review was the most helpful out of 10+ reviews I’ve watched so far comparing these two lenses! I’ve been leaning toward getting the 24mm f1.4, but so many reviews felt like they were pushing me to save $500 because the difference is almost nothing..... but you showed me that the difference is huge on the 1.4 vs 1.8! I’m done deciding now. Getting the 24mm thanks to you!

    It's good to *finally* see someone do real-world side-by-side comparisons of the field-of-view look (especially like at 04:24) to illustrate the differences between these two lenses. Thanks for the great content! One tip: with AF tests, moving side-to-side is just testing the AF tracking, not the focus motor. Try running at the camera or away from it to really see if the motors can keep up! :-)

    Thanks. Surprisingly there's not much videps comparing the vlogging look the way you did that. Personally I'm going for the 24mm as well. The wider focal length doesn't seem to make too much of a difference, but the better bokeh is definitely noticable. And the extra stops I'll get in low light makes it a winner

    Great video and comparison. I don't shoot video and prefer that crazy wide, almost awkward visual that 20mm brings to landscape or city photography. It uplifts a photograph into artwork. That's why I chose the 20mm.

    Thanks for this video. I'm just thinking about to buys one of these lenses (mainly for landscapes and traveling). I think the 20mm is not bad, a good working tool, but in my eyes it doesn't have this magical look of the 24mm 1.4. Greetings from your new channel memeber from Germany :)

    @wvansluisveld3011 Před 3 lety +1

    Having seen this video saves me a grand+ as I have the best of both focal lengths with the Tamron 17-28 f2.8. Although I'd love to have either one I don't see a significant improvement that justifies an upgrade. Although probably great for photo, the building in the background showed a lot of focus breathing on the 24.

    Shout-out from Macedonia, OH - These two are my favorites (with the 30mm f/1.8 completing the trinity), but the 24GM is my all-time - just finished my first documentary almost entirely on the 24GM - f/1.4 makes it so versatile.
