    Which lens would you choose? If you're wondering, I cut out a 5 minute portion of me rambling about the differences between 24 and 28mm. If you're interested in that difference, check out my Tamron 28-75mm vs Sony 24-70 GM II video around 4 minutes in: czcams.com/video/RfqEz3GqfAY/video.html

      Hey there, havent done any side by side comparisons, but I feel like the II is smaller, lighter and sharper - would you be interested in a more in-depth review? I can try to get a GM I to compare

    I have both lenses and never use the 28-70 despite it being so small and light. The 24-70 GMii is just so dang good in every situation with no compromises. The only lens that comes close is the new 20-70 but it’s a full stop slower at f4 which is less than ideal on a high MP body like A7RV in low light.

    It's all about the 20-70mm though :) - kidding aside, great comparison. These days 28mm does feel a bit tight though as even phone cameras give you a 24mm equivalent and content creators really popularised the 20mm focal length which the Pocket 3 uses for that reason. It seems these kinds of mid range 28-70 zooms are falling out of fashion to some extent? - One exception is maybe the 28-60mm just because of how insanely small it is.

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  Před 4 měsíci

      Just depends on what you'll be shooting! I love the 24-70 and 70-200 range 24mm is about as wide as I like to shoot unless it's for a certain stylized shot (or skateboarding!) so I'm there with you on the 24 vs the 28

    I won’t lie. That 24-70 kit lens is decent enough for video if you are just getting into videography in a Sony full frame. It’s junk for photos obviously for a kit lens.

    This is hardly an apples to apples comparison. The kit lens is awful and Sony should be embarrassed to include it with any camera. Maybe you should compare it to the Sigma version for a apples to apples test.

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  Před 4 měsíci +2

      Definitely not a direct comparison, but you'd be surprised at how many people ask this question because they're new and see 28-70 and 24-70 and wonder what the difference is. I have a video going over the Tamrom 28-75 thats a bit more of a competition than the 28-70

    Put Pro's and geeks aside.
    the GM II (or any equivalent maker) is a major waste of your money.

    • @keith-knittel
      @keith-knittel  Před 4 měsíci

      All depends on what you're shooting. Where I like the GM II is where I'll need a sharp zoom that can hold eye autofocus in video in low light (weddings, events, moody talking heads even). Pretty weird edge case that not everyone will run into, but it's served me pretty well. If you don't need the features the GM II has, Tamron or Sigma offer great midrange zooms too
