  • In this video I'm comparing the long awaited Samyang 24mm f1.8 AF lens with the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM lens. The GM has the reputation of its night performance and perfect optical design.
    Samyang claims that this 24mm lens has outstanding optical performance.
    As a landscape and astrophotographer I was more than curious to test if their claim is real. Let see and find out together ;)
    If you're interested in having any of these lenses I would highly recommend to watch the video.

    I have the Sony 24mm GM and was considering selling it for buying the Samyang, mainly because it would fit better on my A7CII, and the minor weight. But I love the rendering of the Sony since the first picture I took. Fortunately you compare the bokeh at different appertures between this two lenses, and as I see, Sony is more pleasant. Thank you for the comparison beyond the pixel-peeping, which I'm not very interested in. I guess I'll keep the GM! Congratulations for the comparison.

      Another new A7C owner here! Looking for a quality 24mm lens without breaking the bank. This looks great! I’m in between this one and the Sigma 24mm f1.4. Also very nice, but more expensive, around $900 and quite larger/heavier. 🤯 Decisions....

      I also tried the sigma, optically not bad at all, however AF suffers shooting against the sun and also has much weaker performance in the corners for astro. Not talking about size and weight... The sigma is heavy duty... would be way front heavy with the 7C.

    Amazing comparison! I've been struggling to choose between getting this new Samyang 24 or the 24 gm to pair with my 35 gm.
    And since there were no direct comparison videos between them, I've instead waited since I felt that the Samyang might deliver on their promises of its astro capabilities. And just 'wow'! Considering how cheap it is, it's almost a crime not to at least consider buying it. Thanks a lot for producing such a great comparison video. I will order the Samyang tomorrow and I doubt that I will be disappointed.

    the star trail at the corner of the frame of Samyang, imo It is an affect of the distortion of the lens. the star is streched by that affect.

      @laszlobella-lighthunters  3 роки тому +1

    • @laszlobella-lighthunters
      @laszlobella-lighthunters  2 роки тому +1

      Indeed, by default my copy was not perfect for infinity focus. The calibration is easy simply adjust the correct focus then press and hold the button for 3 seconds and this will become your new infinity focus. In the description there is also a video on the custom button

  • @astrodysseus
    @astrodysseus 3 роки тому +1

    very interesting comparison. At f1.8 and f2, which lens has an advantage in vignetting ? and any idea how much ? I have owned the 24GM and loved it for its rendering. Tried on stars, good result even wide open, but some CA. I now have the Sony 20mm f1.8, basically no Ca, sharper.. but I kind of miss the 24mm focal length and the GM has better vignetting (which means less need to correct / increase the noise in the corners).

    • @laszlobella-lighthunters
      @laszlobella-lighthunters  3 роки тому +1

      Thank you, appreciate your feedback.
      The samyang only has the advantage in vignetting wide open. Once you stop down the GM, it has the advantage. I agree that there is some CA on the GM, however I can live with that due to the aperture advantage. I also the had the 20 1.8... Sold it after 2 weeks... For me the GM was the clear winner. On top of that I could not live with the moving/wobbling part in the 20 1.8, annoyed me every time I touched it... But that's my bad 😅

    I'm so confused. I own a Canon R6 and also Sony A74 and I need a 24mm lens for either body. Do I get the Canon RF 24mm F1.8 STM or do I get the newly released Sigma 24mm F1.4 Art for the Sony - and now the Samyung 24mm or look for a used Sony native 24mm f1.4 GM or even the Sony 20mm F1.8 G. So many choices - Thanks Steve ( Istvan ) from Canada. Mostly needed for family outings and family vlogs.

      Hi Steve, I understand you're confused, considering you need to think about two different bodies. Unfortunately I have never owner Canon mirrorless body, don't count on me with that :)
      For the Sony body I would go for a second hand 24gm as it's also good for investment. It's an outstanding all around lens. If you're on a budget, go for the Samyang 24mm. An extra advice: I probably would not have the same focal length for both bodies ;)

    @y.h.4221 2 роки тому +1

    Interesting review, thank you for doing this. We can see that from 1.4 the sony has a little more contrast. But thing is, when you do astro and show us the pictures, the GM is at 1250 is and samyang at 2000 iso. So, from your opinion, 1.8 aperture is enough compared to 1.4 to get the most of the stars? No risks to push the ISO and have some noise?

    • @laszlobella-lighthunters
      @laszlobella-lighthunters  2 роки тому +2

      Thanks for the feedback. True story ISO counts a lot when it comes to noise and "number" of stars. Depends on your camera body. With the 7iii you can easily go up to 5-6000 without serious image degradation. IMHO this difference is manageable, if it's a 1.4 vs 2.8 battle.... Different story ;-)

  • @inkpapers-1
    @inkpapers-1 2 роки тому +2

    The differences are so small, I'd really like to see the same sort of comparison with other copies of these lenses. I'm so particular I might crop out the corners on either lens. Price wise the Samyang is great. The GM lens, I like the slight difference in color cast better, if I'm seeing it correctly, a little more modern less vintage. And considered for more than just astro, I'd like it better too. It gives me a slightly superior overall impression, with the advantages of being a Sony lens on a Sony camera, but is it worth that price difference?

    • @laszlobella-lighthunters
      @laszlobella-lighthunters  2 роки тому +1

      Very good question. I believe every person has a different answer for that. True that other aspects matter as well than astro. My opinion is that the Samyang is not 3 times worse that the Sony. If I had the GM I wouldn't downgrade. If I wouldn't have any of them, I would pick the Samyang

    Szia! Egy ilyennel szemezek egy ideje, amit egy 1.8/45-el társítanék. Már van egy 2.8/100-as macro samyangom, ami az egyik kedvencem, így szívesen vennék a gyártótól mást, de nem láttam még az AF-es samyangok anyagminőségét élőben. Minden teszt azt mondja, hogy elég "plasztik" mindegyik. Mit gondolsz ezekről az obikról? Minden cuccomra vigyázok általában, lelkes amatőr vagyok csak. Valószínűleg nem az őserdőbe vinném őket, inkább kirándulni, nyaralni meg a tavaszi/őszi fotós sétáimhoz. Szerinted megéri beruházni ezekre ha hosszú évekre szeretném megvenni? Illetve itthon mennyi garanciát adnak rájuk? (sehol nem írják)

      Szerintem ár érték minőség arányban egy kiváló optika. Ha vigyázol rá akkor főleg időtálló darab lesz.

    Forgive the stupid question I'm about to ask but since I've never done astrophotography yet I'm trying to figure it out. Is the orange at the bottom of the photo the sun coming up just before dawn or is it just after sunset? I live in Arizona and I'm thinking of getting this lens to try to get into astrophotography. Lot's of extremely dark places in the desert out here with little to no light pollution. Great video by the way!

      This orange colour is light pollution. If you're shooting astro landscape, it's not enough to go to a dark spot. You'll need to consider cities, villages in your shooting direction. I would recommend this lens to start with, good bang for buck. Watch some astro videos to understand the basics (even better if you can join some workshops) then use every clear night to go out and practice ;)

      I wouldn't say negligible, but manageable. If you have the money every stop brings value. The question is always how much more you're willing to pay for the extra light. There isn't a full stop difference, ISO 1600 vs 2500.

    If you test the lenses on winter landscapes where there is a lot of snow, then the GM 24mm 1.4 has quite serious chromatic aberrations. But Samyangs, according to numerous reviews, having an ideal optical component, are very weak in terms of design, they often break down, just crumble into pieces in hands.

    • @laszlobella-lighthunters
      @laszlobella-lighthunters  9 місяців тому

      Probably because he mostly tested infinity focus where the Samyang is optimised for. Astro, landscape. The GM works equally well up close, the Samyang really loses the race there. Also: colors, contrast. The latter was mentioned in the video though. Samyang does have much less focus breathing, but alas also much lower light transmission.

It comes as two parts...One that slides onto the cameras hot shoe and the other is a bluetooth clip on mic. They can be used separately, or both together, and you can plug a Lavalier mic into the blutooth mic to eliminate more background audio. Sony do an optional stereo Lavalier mic specially for this purpose.
      The unit on the camera transfers the audio to the camera through the hotshoe, so it is completely wireless/cordless mic option.
