Suzi of masterful analysis! Loving yours & Martin’s channel. And dad and Julian have nice cameo! Thanks for this video. 🙏🏽

[@TRtheLoanGuy]

Love this lens. Great video. Just a heads up, you mentioned you cannot use clear image zoom in video mode. That’s incorrect. I have the A7C2 and have a custom bottom set and use it all the time with my Sony 20mm G.

Tamron 20-40 will be better for casuals and beginners. Cheaper, smaller & wider.

[@alvinbartolome1239]

Which one would you chose between this lens over the recently released Sony 20-70/4 as an EDC lens, on a similar note, I have the following lenses:
Samyang 24/1.8
Sigma 35/1.4 DG DN
Sony Zeiss 55/1.8
Sigma 85/1.4 DG DN
I am looking for a versatile zoom in the hope to replace my 24 and 55mm lenses for EDC, travel and family/personal shoots.
Thank you Suzi for this great video.

[@Gemini_Connect]

That’s a tough call. I personally would go with the 24-50 because if the faster aperture. You can also use Aps-c mode and Clear Image Zoom to make up for the shorter focal length (more info on those here - czcams.com/video/3y1xSEF0_so/video.htmlsi=7C6YtFvFolGd6-e3)

[@alvinbartolome1239]

@@Gemini_Connect Thank you. Oh before I forgot, I am also looking at the Sony 20-70/4 as an EDC lens but yeah, you also covered by making a great comparison with it here as well.

[@Weedeogram]

I'm gonna traded in my 20-70mm GM ii for this, going lighter. and I'm interested on the lens holder that you hang your telelens...any link for purchase?

[@Gemini_Connect]

It’s the Peak Design lens kit. Works really well IMO - amzn.to/4b7ujNf
