Thanks for the video great comparison. I personally tried both lenses on my A7III and I can say Batis all the way, sharper then GM, also better in terms of colours and contrast. The GM has manual controls on the lens this could be a plus but in therms of glass and autofocus I personally find the Batis is much better.
Any wide angle lens comparaisin should include a ‘sweet spot of the lens’ aperture comparaison, maybe f4 or f8. Cause people who buy wide angle lenses often want a large depth of field in their photo, and not so much blurry backgrounds and or foregrounds. I am sure the Batis being smaller, lighter, warmer in tones (thanx to your video) might have also proven to be at par with GE lenses in terms of sharpness at those aperture, and won me over. Not everyone is a vlogger :) we buy wide angle lenses for get the wise angle in focus (often) Great video.
The Sigma might win me over, but not for the reason you expect. Availability. I have had the GM on backorder for about a month here in the states. I have events coming up in early February, and I could really use a wide angle prime.
You may wanna send your Batis in as the chroma is absolutely not common in this lens. I also have it and my copy has literally none. I also have the 24mm sigma (old canon times) and I have to say that the two are very much close to each other on performance. For some reason Zeiss despite a smaller aperture can capture almost the same perf as sigma (1.4 vs 2.0) Check it out, you'll be amazed
Great review, thank you! Normally, I don't put much weight on corner sharpness, especially not wide open. Having rented the 24mm GM for a week, though, it really sets the lens apart. I love being able to frame environmental portraits or even more intimate portraits and be certain that no matter where your subject is, they'll be pin sharp. The lens resolves so cleanly, that I felt comfortable cropping into pictures much more than with other similar lenses. For me, it's worth the extra in this case!
Hi! Great comparison! Just a small detail when comparing Sigma and GM lenses wide open. The Sigma has a busier bokeh. This is not however due to the aperture blades (9 vs. 11) because wide open it's completely round anyway. The differences in the background blur has to do with the lens elements and how they are made. The Sigma is made using "traditional" grinding process for the elements while the GM is produced using a special patented molding process, at least for some of the elements. That explains both the reduction of "busyness" and "onion rings".
Maybe since wide angles are usually used for landscapes where eye auto focus and bokeh dont matter you could test sharpness where people shoot wide angles around f8. You didn't even test the samyang and it and the 28 f2 are the most likely to be used by a hiker that wants to travel light. Maybe another review of testing what the majority of wide angle lenses are used for? Would love to see how sharp they are if they are good enough for landscapes. Great idea though testing out all the wide options.
Chromatic aberrations are easily corrected in post - so not much of a concern. Due to my preferences in color and contrast, there is no reason to upgrade from the batis to GM - the sharpness isn’t significant enough to justify the move.
Sigma's bokeh is STUNNING! Sony 24mm's bokeh is just like image been blurred in photoshop. I see the Art of Sigma here!) Thank you for this great comparison!
Cris, thanks for that comprehensive comparison! It will be so great if you share RAW-shots of a girl to give other photographers an opportunity to compare side by side these lenses in LR and C1 with or without distortion correction, CA correction and sharpness ;-)
If one is going to spring for a GM lens for FX or DX the 24mm is it. The Batis is optically close with superb contrast and that Zeiss 3D pop but functionally, AF and bokeh it lags the Sony.
Hi Chris! Great video! I have a question, i bought the Sony A7 iii and i cant decide which lenses to buy, what do you recomend: to buy only the 24 1.4 gm or two lenses the 28 mm f2 AND 55mm 1.8 Zeiss?
Another good one is Loxia 21mm. Id love to see a comparison btween those two.

To be honest the Sigma is the best lens. If you had to compare the GM and Sigma without the labels, you wouldn't know which one is which. The extra money you pay for the GM is just not worth if you can buy the Sigma.
Almost. The GM is definitely better in the edges and the focusing is MUCH better so it really depends what you want. If it’s just optical quality. Maybe for landscape or whatever then totally. The GM is also way lighter
man, Sigma 24 is way too big and heavy, i think the size and weight of 24GM is perfect, HOWEVER, i bought neither, because i do not like the focal length of 24...
Great video as usual, thank you. Does Sony GM lens has focus pulsing when you move to subject or from subject when shooting video at f1.4? Where You loose focus for a bit and then acquire it again? So it's a bit difficult to do push in or pull out video moves. Or you not supposed to shoot video at f1.4 do to thin dof?
Hai Chris, great video. I am really curious to compare the 24 MM GM with the 1635 GM. I usually use the 1635 GM for wide shot and also the 35 at 2.8 for the portrait shot. Do you think that the 24 mm GM can replace the 16 to 35 GM range? I you sure shot for travelling photography. So light weight is a great option
One is f1.4 and the other is f2.8. Aperture is always the priority no matter what. 24mm gm is wide enough yet beautiful enough for wide portraits with its f1.4. Night/Astro photography is king on the 24mm.
Love the Gmaster but that thing hasn't been available for months here in the states ... meanwhile the Batis and the sigma has been on sale for much less than the $1524(after taxes) the GM is going for...
Hello Chris. Do your recommend the GM 24mm 1.4 over the Sony Zeiss 35mm 1.4, for group portraits, in weddings? I have the Sony Zeiss 35mm, but feel that the GM24mm would be much better, especially in terms of sharpness and wider angle. Have you used the 24mm GM in such settings, often? Thinking of selling the 35mm for the 24mm.
@@mattadden597 It seems that he replied to this question about 3 months ago, to one individual. I just read it in the comments below. He said that he uses "24, but it can be hard to deal with if your not used to it. 35 is much easier to start off with " So, the 24mm GM seems to be better, if you know how to shoot with such wide angle. I used a 28mm FE lens, and it didn't seem that difficult, as you get used to it. One has to be aware of the wider angle, for sure, and where the subjects will be in the frame.
The 9 blade design has NOTHING to do with the structure you are seeing, man. Please dont guess if you dont know because you just confuse people looking for advice.
Great video Chris!! Would you mind posting the camera settings you used for this video? I'm interested in which picture profile you used (if any). Thanks!!
Hello.. Question I'm trying to get the sony 24mm gm but is sold out if I go with the sigma 24mm would I be satisfied? I'm going to be using it for music videos interviews ect.. Mainly videos.
I think because you need to be aware of distortion etc, it’s a unique view and you also have to be comfortable with getting closer to people than you do with a 35
Hey Chris, please help me, i own sony a7iii, and sony 70-200 f4 lens, now im thinking about my next lens, for travel, landscape etc. Im torn between batis 25 and tamron 28-75 f2.8. i would like to have them both but at the moment i budget for one, in the future i will get and third, but which one you can recommend me to get as next one?
I mean it depends what you want I guess, the Tamron is a great lens so is the Batis. I’d probably only get the batis if you really want f2 and a slightly shallower depth of field. If your not going to shoot at f2 a lot I’d go for the Tamron
Thanks Chris- I just subscribed after watching this video! I am pleased that you threw in the 28 mm f.2 as I already own that lens! I thought you were very fair in your assessments of the lenses.
Cris, amazing. I've been offered to buy Batis, second hand, for US $760, but i am having sigma canon mount 24 1.4 with mc11 on my a7R3. Wedding guy here. What would you do?
Maybe I watched a different video, but it seems the sigma is value for a consumer. Pros don't care about the price difference, but for us, the IQ and AF difference is negligible.
They are fine really. My opinions come from someone who’s a full time wedding photographer. For personal work I wouldn’t be as worried about focus issues and such
Thanks for this review. I stay with my 28 for the moment because the Gmaster is so expensive. As I use also the A6300 I would really love to see a comparison between the 24 GM and the Sigma 16 1.4. This would be a great alternative if Sony comes out with a new APSC pro Body :)
Yoooooo you are the f#@$%^& man thanks! This is unbelievable! Great video! SAVING for the G master man thanks! Great great review appreciate you helping your fans everyone hit that follow right now!
Chris Turner I see! I know the Sigma art lenses have nice manual focusing, being smooth with the right amount of resistance. Were you able try rack focusing on the Sony? Like let’s say on an objective right in front you to an object across the room. I wonder how it is for focusing pulling
The bokeh at 1.4 is influenced by the aperture design ?! It is of course a non sens . I see that you are used to review lenses . I can only recommend you to read the H Nasse's ( former Zeiss technical head) article about depth of field and bokeh.
Cinematographic Quests Just google : depth of field and bokeh H Nasse . You shall find a long article (pdf) . The second part is about bokeh. The shape of the iris has an influence only on the shape of the highlights and of course not when wide open. The most important factors influencing the quality of the bokeh which come from the lens, are optical (aberrations ) or mechanical ( vigneting) . Note that the mechanical vigneting ( cat’s eye) can increase the DoF where it appears but also create the famous swirly bokeh.
The legend for first comparison at f2.8 for the tree photos are different from what you are saying. You said sony x batis but those were not at the legends
Chris Turner interesting. From what I’ve heard, that’s definitely the best 24mm in the Canon lineup and those who’ve compared it to other 24s that were out before the Sony 24 GM said that the Canon Lii 24 was the best performing 24mm. However, no one on UA-cam has done a great comparison between these 2 lenses. That’s why I asked. Thanks for responding
As far as I know it’s the only 24mm prime for full frame that canon make haha I have directly compared it to the sigma and the sigma was better on the same camera. But honestly at the end of the day they are all pretty close.
Chris Turner thanks for sharing that. Congrats on your channels growth. I’ve been watching quiet a few of your videos this last week. Great content. Keep it coming. If you could make one on the focus mode demonstration of a bride going down the isles but eye focus is not catching her eye. I’m assuming you use flexible Spot L for this but how do you pull it off at F1.4
Oh it's a great lens. Don't take it like it's not, really the only thing is the video focus is good but not fantastic. I have the Sigma 35 and 50 and they are both great.
Yes, maybe Sigma is cheapper, but the sigma 24 has loud autofocus on continous mode. At least on the Nikon it is. Is it different for Sony? Sony 24 has a silent AF so this is an undoubted advantage.
You talk a lot man and need way more cutaway shots. You described the quality and weight of each lens yet didn't at all once cut to videos of the lenses.
These Camera and lens manufacturers must think we are idiots...Only interested in knobs and buttons..A 24mm 1.4 lens for £1450 in the U.K. and €1600 in Europe should be perfect as near as possible and should totally stand out from a lens costing 15% of the price ...These tests completely put me of buying a new lens as I realise they are not any different from the one I already own.and if so? very minimal ..I look at my photos from years ago and the quality looks no different...Yet I love technology but only when there is a drastic change such as SD -HD. Or HD-UHD nowadays most enervation is pure gimmick like animal Eye Autofocus...If the Autofocus is so good then you should be able to focus easily on the face of a pet.Now face detection is no good you must have eye detection...What happened to Sony’s lock on Autofocus..You just need to focus on the face ..IPhones and pocket cameras can record video in 60p yet Sony might announce a new Sony A7 S 3 which records in 60p and everyone will run out and buy it for €4000.
Thanks for this! Was looking for pretty much this exact thing. Cheers!

A big thanks for your efforts. I bought the 24mm G-Master and am loving it. Cheers
my 28mm Sony F2 lens works perfectly with eye AF etc.... i think you have a bad copy
Yeah I agree. This one was just on loan but the one I owned a while ago was fine
exactly what i was searching for, the best review for wide lenses on sony! Thank you Chris!
Seems like if weight isn't an issue, the Sigma is a great value for performance. Great video!
One of the best lens comparison video! Thank you so much!
I'm thinking on getting the entire set of Batis. Would you recommend them against the GM?

Chromatic aberration is corrected automatically in Sony lenses.
Not in raw files
TLDR,
budget end, skip the Samyang take the Sony,
high end, give the Batis a hard pass, only f2 and poor background, GM vs Sigma art, GM wins.

Great video Chris!! Would you mind posting the camera settings you used for this video? I'm interested in which picture profile you used (if any). Thanks!!
Hey I use SLOG2 most of the time with the colour mode on cinema or pro so it’s not so flat
Sony users are blesses with so many wide angle options, premium or affordable, large or small.
24mm GM wins! and also buying GM lenses is a good investment.. They hold their value very good if you keep them in good condition.
I have 24gm and batis25. I use 24 for stills and 25batis for videos. Batis has way better focus tracking in my experience.
I didn’t notice that at all between those 2

I wouldn’t buy the 24-70 in the first place but yeah. I’d much rather have the 24
What photo style setting do you use on your camera? Because you said the photos you compared were RAW, but the colour looked different.

Would you recommend a 24 or 35 1.4 for portraits/weddings?
Well I use 24, but it can be hard to deal with if your not used to it. 35 is much easier to start off with

Chris Turner yep, totally agree & thanks for responding. Loving your content bro, been watching consistently for a while now! Keep it up 😊
If I buy 24 mm , I will get the GM 1.4 . No other lens. That's it
What if you buy a 25mm?
Is there more of a pancake size? I have the gmaster 24 1.4 and its great i just want something similar but smaller
24mm 1.4 GM vs 18 mm zeiss f2.8 for landscape shots?
Is nothing wrong with that 28mm, mine is doing the same thing...is making me crazy....
Chris thank you! What's your opinion on the GM for vlogging and walk around hand held on a gymbal?
Yeah it's really good eh. I you go back in my recent videos the Jeep walk around last week was with the GM
thank you so much for your reply Chris! I have been using my 16-35 2.8 gm, would you say it's worth exchanging for a 24mm gm?

If you could make one on the focus mode demonstration of a bride going down the isles but eye focus is not catching her eye. I’m assuming you use flexible Spot L for this but how do you pull it off at F1.4
can live with the sigma 24mm coz of it’s price.
Oh it's a great lens. Don't take it like it's not, really the only thing is the video focus is good but not fantastic. I have the Sigma 35 and 50 and they are both great.
GM is easily the best . Shell out the money and get that lens. You will keep it for life.
thanks man
When are you going to do a video instead of pictures
Dxomark says the zeis scores well on CA... weird!!
Yes, maybe Sigma is cheapper, but the sigma 24 has loud autofocus on continous mode. At least on the Nikon it is. Is it different for Sony? Sony 24 has a silent AF so this is an undoubted advantage.
I didn't know Sigma has 24mm f1.4, would had got that. I just got a 24mm GM. I guess for the extra money, you get the best of the best...
Bro...sony 24mm f.4gm...bro you recommend to buy this lens?any autofocus noise(sound) issue for this lens?
I returned my GM and for the same money bought the sigma 24 and 35 1.4 it’s a no brainier
Too much lenses to compare. You can reduce the list to 2 or 3 lenses before you make the video.
Sony 24mm 1.4 GM is really GREAT
why is Gerard Butler doing lenses review ?
Araiso Marketing hahaha. You win my favourite subscriber award 🥇
Was thinking the same thing! Hahaha
You talk a lot man and need way more cutaway shots. You described the quality and weight of each lens yet didn't at all once cut to videos of the lenses.
I’m sure you know what the lens looks like, if not Google has a ton of images.
I'll think the Sigma 24 is for me..
It's a great lens for sure
I just wonder why and how different lenses give you different colors. The sensor is what makes the color.
Nope. Quality of glass changes colour dramatically. Try some old film lenses.
is it just me or is sigma skin rendering is better?
The sigma is just warmer
These Camera and lens manufacturers must think we are idiots...Only interested in knobs and buttons..A 24mm 1.4 lens for £1450 in the U.K. and €1600 in Europe should be perfect as near as possible and should totally stand out from a lens costing 15% of the price ...These tests completely put me of buying a new lens as I realise they are not any different from the one I already own.and if so? very minimal ..I look at my photos from years ago and the quality looks no different...Yet I love technology but only when there is a drastic change such as SD -HD. Or HD-UHD nowadays most enervation is pure gimmick like animal Eye Autofocus...If the Autofocus is so good then you should be able to focus easily on the face of a pet.Now face detection is no good you must have eye detection...What happened to Sony’s lock on Autofocus..You just need to focus on the face ..IPhones and pocket cameras can record video in 60p yet Sony might announce a new Sony A7 S 3 which records in 60p and everyone will run out and buy it for €4000.
I don’t know if I’d go that far. But I think none of this gear makes us better photographers. However it does make our jobs easier.
Weather that’s a good thing or not I’m unsure
