My absolute favorite lens is the Zeiss 55mm F1.8 :-) Love the focal lenght and the 55mm is small, price wise is acessible and super light. Also super sharp and the bokeh it's amazing!
The Shot with Liseberg in Gotenburg is awesome, i love the look of a Tele Lens in Video. And the shot with the 70-200 at 200 looks awesome too, cause of the immense compression of the background.
Personally, I love the 35mm look in both video and photo, so the 35mm 1.4 GM lives on my A7M4 while the 70-200 2.8 GM II lives on the A7R5. I may get some flack for this, but my 16-35 2.8 GM II lives on the FX30, but it still looks great with the APSC crop! I couldn't afford the FX3 but the FX30 is doing me very well! I just sold the 20mm G and Sigma 24-70 because the 50mm 1.2 GM have pretty much covers those ranges I need. I think I'll sell the 135mm 1.8 GM prime because the 70-200 GM II is just that awesome!!! In the beginning I was buying a lot of lenses but now I have a better sense of what I like and what I shoot regularly, that was a big challenge for me.
I've seen most of your gear videos, but this one is probably the most comprehensive one yet as it gives better insight in what you use it all for 🤘 The top four you chose at the end was very nice, although I wouldn't have taken the 85mm 1.8 as that look is pretty much covered by the 50mm 1.2 in crop mode. I'm purchasing the 85mm 1.4 GM II which is rumored to be released next week. I currently have the 24mm 1.4 GM and the 35mm 1.4 GM. I prefer the 24 over the 35 because of smoother rendering, and the 35 has an annoying weakness which is the focus breathing. It's not even completely eliminated with breathing compensation turned on. Hejhopp
Funny, I don’t shoot video yet I own all the Sony and Zeiss Batis lenses you own. Unfortunately I own even more since for me the fun I like in my stills shooting is the different looks I can achieve by adding in a lens like 35/1.4 GM or 40/2 for street and the 135/1.88 GM for portraits. This of course doesn’t count other lenses I own for landscape, wildlife, and birds in flight. Really enjoy your videos. Thank you and take care. Oh, started to buy smaller/lighter lenses for my compact C bodies and traveling.
Hey Peter, very solid recommendations. I just received the Samyang 10mm AF and I really love it for tight spaces. Even my 14mm GM is more like 20mm with active stabilisation. Greats from Berlin!
24mm is still my favorite, but I do feel like I can do anything with the 16-35mm GM and a 70-200mm GM II…I don’t have the 70-200mm yet, that is on my wish list. Trying to decide if I want to get an 85mm or just get 70-200mm….i feel like if I got the 70-200 I wouldn’t need the 85mm. I love your 24mm in your studio. That 200mm looks sick too lol 😂 also I like the cooler lights look.
For my UA-cam Videos my personally favorite Lens is Tamrons 20-40mm F2.8 A can do Vlogs with it, like the 40mm for Street and with the Crop Mode of my Sony A7IV i can get up to 60mm. And that all with this tiny little Lens...freaking amazing. And for tighter Shots i use the good old Sony 85mm F1.8 Love the Zeiss 85mm, but my last one was decentered :( Looking for a new one, but that is difficult. Another great Lens is the Tamron 35-150mm F2-2.8 Had a Fashion Show where i needed the Complete Range of up to 225mm (Crop Mode) And this Lens is an absolutly Workhorse :) And in the near Future i will test the new Sigma 28-45mm F1.8 I had this one in my Hands and it feels just great. :)
@@PeterLindgren1 Helt rätt 😂 På tal om GM, har du testat 400/2.8 någon gång? Det är är ju såklart ingen vlogglugg direkt men på tal om creamy bokeh är den min nummer ett i arsenalen!
Peter! To be honest... 20mm or 24mm... or 16 or... It's not as important as the 'story' or the knowledge you share. Maybe lots of people look at your videos because it's you? When I film, I also look a lot at my camera gear. It's because I want to make it good. The comments we get is never about how we film or about video quality. It's only about what we are sharing and that it's coming from our honest heart if you understand. Keep up your good work. / Matti in Jokkmokk
G master for the win! I'm on the canon side of things and I love the L series glass. That's why I only have 2. 24-70 f2.8 and 70-200 f2.8. I love them and my wife will never know what I paid for them (except the $hunnerd I paid for my plasticy 50mm f1.8) thank you for your info. Greetings from Sweet Home Alabama, Carlos
Hey Peter, Glad to see you back and love the new studio. I pretty much have the same lenses as you shared except the 70-200/2.8 v2. Waiting for it to go down or getting the f4.0. What do you use for personal travels. I find myself using 16-35/4 (since the 16-35/2.8 v2 took forever to release) for the wide end and the 24-105/4 for the tele end. The 14/1.8 wasn’t used much but lately when I use the ZVE-1 and dynamic stabilization, I get 18. So for primes, I use 14/1.8, 24/1.4, 50/1.2, and waiting on the update to the 85 and 135. Since you like the 16-35/2.8 so much, are you planning to add the v2?
Great video! My favorite lens for my work is the Sony 16-25mm 2.8 G lens. Lighter and a lot cheaper than the 16-35 GM lens. Yes, I am missing 10mm but if I need the extra reach, I use the APSC mode.
@@PaulFeinberg Great! I am mainly using the smaller Sony A7S2 and I just really appreciate the lighter and smaller 16-25mm lens. Most of my work is run and gun style. The GM lens is big and heavy plus I spent a lot less time in the gym than Peter.
What do you think about the 70 - 200 f4 G macro mk2 instead of the 90 mm f 2.8. I'd pair that with the 20 - 70 f4 g for travel and have a light and versatile kit that covers 20 - 200 range.
Great information, so thank you! I was pleased to know that of the four lenses I have now, three of them made your list: Sony 24mm f/1.4 GM; Sony 50mm f/1.2 GM, and the Zeiss 85mm f/1.8 Batis. The other lens I have is for event photography, not video, and is the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 GM... so it serves its purpose well. Currently, I'm looking for the next video lens to purchase, and figured it would be in the 35mm range (prime), but surprisingly that focal length didn't make your cut. So, I will have to explore the 35mm elsewhere, but will check on the 16-35mm... but I'm a bit worried about the 2.8 max aperture for video. Would appreciate anyone's thoughts... I mainly video interviews and people talking (not at distance so I don't need a telephoto lens as a high priority).
I do weddings and commercial videos, like interviews with b-rolls. I use the 24GM, 50GM, 70-200GM2 - Looking to get a 24-70 again, torn between saving money on the new Sigma DG DN 2 or just getting the GM2.
Sony: if you have the money and want the best Sigma: if you not want to spend Sony money but want same quality Tamron & Samyang/Rokinon: if you want budget friendly with good quality Viltrox and the rest: if you don’t want to spend lots of money and just want to have fun and good images
Are Sony GM lenses color matched. Usually photography lenses are not really color matched to give identical colors per lens, but GM lenses are kind of a hybrid between cine and photo. Would a 24mm Sony GM 1.4 give me the same colors as the 35mm Sony GM 1.4, 50mm Sony GM 1.4, 85mm Sony GM 1.4 and the 24-70mm Sony GM II lens? Same settings, same camera, same subject, same lighting conditions.
@@PeterLindgren1 It is lighter than to carry a 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm and 70-200m with and you never have to swap lenses. I think a 16-35 for vlogging (or 16-28mm or 20-40mm there are several wide angle zooms out there) and the Tamron 35-150mm f/2.0-2.8 is the way to go. I owned all those lenses you talked about, and I sold them all, because they were just resting in my bag for years. I do a lot of fashion / portrait / lifestyle. The 35-150mm is by far the most powerful Lens I ever used. And with the new Lightroom feature it is very easy to make it look like f/1.4 or f/1.2. Primes are not need anymore for photography. For video a very fast F-stop is not as much as import as for photos to get a "professional look" - I think you should give the Tamron 35-150mm a chance and make a review about it. Cheers
Nice collection! I have the 14mm, 24-70 and 12-24. I find they cover what I like to do and the 14mm I find is light enough with the ZVE1 for a very light carry when I don’t want to bring the A7SIII

24mm is the way to go keep at it, my fav is 90mm it’s crazy sharp. Question is how to get that tshirt, love it. Great content, keep it up✌️
I like the look of the 20mm over the 24mm, it gives me as a viewer more of the feeling, that we would sit at a desk and talk with each other.
