24mm is one of my favorite lenses right after the 85mm! It's incredibly easy to get a lot of pictures with this lens but to take some incredible ones require a little thinking! Here are my TOP 8 reasons why & how you would use this lens! Whether you're shooting on Sony, Canon, Nikon, Fuji, etc. all of these tips can apply to your next photography session! Landscape, Street, Fashion, Lifestyle, Portraits, Weddings, Videos, VLOGs, the 24mm can cover a lot of genre!
Thinking I'm gonna talk about the 50mm next, what you guys think? 😃
😂😂😂😂😂 why & How nxt video
How about primes vs zoom quality comparison?
yes do the 50mm, something to watch while impatiently waiting for that 1.2 GM to ship!!! 😬
yes!
No thank you I do not like 50mm lenses, 45mm and shorter are ok, 55mm and longer are ok. Back in the 70´80´and 90´a 50mm was only a cheap kit lens that was parked back down in a dark corner and never used, I do not see all the modern fuss about the 50mm lens, stop it. But if you can get your hand on a Voigtländer Macro Apo-Lanthar 65mm 2.0 it will be very awsome :D
The 24 G Master is my favorite lens so far. Perfect for video and great for dynamic portraits.
I want to get one
The comparison between the 24, 35 and 50 was exactly what I needed to see!
I swear Jason whenever I watch your 24mm videos it makes me fall in love with my f1.4 gm again!
I bought the Sony A7III in 2019 with the 24-105 G F/4.0 lens. After a year of using that I was really noticing that most of my shots where at 24 mm or 105mm. I sold the lens and bought the 24 mm Gmaster F/1.4 and the 85mm F/1.8 from Sony. Best decision ever but to be honest, I hardly put the 85mm on. Once you get used to the 24mm on a Full Frame camera it becomes a second nature to take a closer step for portraits. Foodshots with the creamy Bokeh are amazing aswell :D. Ooh and BTW, your videos are amzing, keep them up! You are my GO to channel why I decided to go with Sony.
Good one! When I first tried a 24mm my reaction was, whoa, everything is so far away. But it only took a minute, and it has become my favorite lens for everything. With that one and a 50mm or slightly longer, I'm all set!
You always provide such a high quality content! Showing that many pictures is so helpful, thanks!
I always have a tough time explaining things so having ample amount of photos to supplement my talking points really helps! Glad you think so too! 😁
Had 7 lenses and when I fell in love with 24mm, I got the collection down to 3. 24mm 1.4 GM, Sigma 24-70 art, Somy 85mm 1.8. Less choices has given me so much more freedom
Amen to that!
Exact same setup
@@22s22a so happy I made that decision, hope it is working well for you too
DUDE I HAVE THE EXACT SAME SETUP!
I love choices. The trick is though to bring only 3 lenses with you
Great stuff as always Jason. I love the 24mm look as well.
You can tell Jason used his quarantine time really well. Thoroughly enjoyed this!!
Agree with you and 24GM is my most favorite lens so far.
Got my 24mm 1.4 GM and 85mm 1.8 and I'm so happy with this combo. Having sooo much fun!
Hey buying both today, what ND filter do you use to shoot 1.4 and 1.8 during bright days?
The 24mm GM did pair up very nicely with my both 50mm f1.4/55mm f1.8 for cosplay events. As the 24mm did allow some nice wide shoots and the 55mm did a solid job for portraits. I also paired those 2 for Italy. 24mm handled food. 50mm did a fair number of photos and portraits there also.
I'm so excited! I'm just getting into photography when my sister gave me her old camera. I just purchased a 24mm lense and I'm so keen to try it out
Love this video. Killer travel shots too. I’m getting the a7c and have been debating what lens to get. I usually shoot wide or tight, very rare I’m in between. So I think this vid just helped me decide what first lens to get. I’d love to see a similar video on longer focal lengths.
I really like your content bro, keep up the great job!
Just got a 16 for my apsc Fuji, thanks for so many great examples!
I really like these focal length comparisons, for myself a beginner Thank you!
This really helped me consider how the subject is in the environment!
Super helpful. Thanks for this!!
This is the video I needed to remind me why I got the 24mm GM.
Such a great video. This is exactly why I subscribed such a long time ago. Love your videos on the 85mm just like this one on the 24mm. Hope there will be other focal lengths as well. Keep it up, Jason!
Don't know how much more of these i can make! Otherwise every lens is a lens i can HIGHLY recommend 😂 But i will dive deeper in a series on how to utilize each focal length
@@JasonVong Sounds good! Really excited for the upcoming videos. The quality of your videos increases like mad. Has to be a lot of work.
It’s something about taking an interest in photography that makes watching videos like these a lot more entertaining and relaxing at the same time :))
You inspired me to buy a 24/1.4G and yep, it's a great lens. I really like its versatility and uniqueness. We all fed up with standart portraits on 85-135 mm lenses with completely blurred backgrounds. 24 mill gives a bit different portraits - shallow DOF and wide angle in one frame look different and eyes-capturing, we aren't used to this frames coz it's not standart. The background is blurred but due to a wide angle and bigger DOF (in contrast with 50, 85 and so on) you can show there's the subject at the moment and simultaneously isolate it from background. Oh, i really found my all-time-favored lens now!
excellent video, thanks!
Living the dream! Great content
And this is why the Sigma 16mm is so awesome for APS-C. Great video as always.
You are really convincing me to get the 24 mm prime. I have a 35 mm f2.8 so I'm still a bit on the fence, but I definitely can't vlog with it and I would like something versatile for when I finally get to travel again! :) Thanks for sharing your opinion- it means a lot to us!
“SLURPIN ON SOME GOOD NOODS!” If this isn’t on a shirt soon I riot!
😂😂😂
I just ordered a 24mm f/1.4 GM yesterday because of your video about it! Should be coming in tomorrow!
Enjoy it!!
Very good video. Im totally hesitating between the 24 1.4, a 35mm or a 24-70 (already have a 20mm 1.8) tell me what to buy !!😂
I use my 24mm GM for so much of my work. I love that lens!
Had mine for over a year now and it's still my favorite.
Thank you for this... i believe now you cant go wrong with vong...
I would love to see a comparison between the 24mm and the 20mm 🙏🙏
I was just thinking the same thing
Got the 24 f1.4....soooo nice,great close focus.A review on 50mm would be helpful.😃👍🏻
I've got 24mm samyang and that's superrb, silent , great focus , light, and love it so far.
I love shooting at 24mm on my 16-36GM, I can't justify the price of a prime right now, but definitely something I'll be thinking about down the road. Have a few other things I want yet, and some more saving to do again.
Like the guitar on the stand behind you.very cool studio uve got there man
Loving your Videos. It's always a nice flow and vide. Hey Jason, is it possible to make a review about the new Samyang 24mm f1.8? Would love to hear ur opinions on that lense.
this is why i love me a 24 and 85 lens combi.
Thanks for keeping your vids do entertaining.
My favourite combo there: the 24mm GM & 85mm Batis!
I love the SAS in this video! Awesome jokes and really informative. The 24 is on my list of buys for sure.
That bookstore is amazing!!
Love the 24mm Gmaster,use it more than any of my other lenses.
The 24mm GM is always faithful ;)
Love your colors! Which preset do you use for editing photos?
Just picked up a sony 24mm 1.4 GM i love it ill never get rid of it’
Would you recommend the sigma 24-70mm as a starter lense for an a7riv or get the this 24mm and later the 80mm?
Great content! If you could only have one or two primes, which ones 24mm, 35mm, 50mm or 85mm? For travel or street or night time?
Wow, nice video! Thanks for sharing 😁
Hi Jason, such a great video. So helpful in our quest to find the perfect vlogging camera. What size lens would you suggest is best for vlogging? We know you said here 24mm isn't too bad. We are looking for the best for wide angle. I may have to save up more money between the camera itself and a lens $$$$$....LOL. But seeing your videos and picture taking, I know we want to go with a Sony this time. I think we also need a gimble for stability when vlogging. Our channel is little subscriber wise, but I still want our videos to be great quality, and right now our Canon just isnt cutting it wide angle wise and it's pretty poor quality in the dark on rides. I aspire to be the pro that you are.....hee hee. Of course my mom thinks I do pretty good.......but she has to say that!
Is it good for close up product shots for video?
@jasonVong the GM or the Zeiss 25mm f/2.0 Batis ?? Mahalo For any advice
Love your videos brother, your being yourselfness! 😊
Hello.. Thanks for this great video! I'm new to the camera world. I just bought a Sony A7III & now it's time to get a Gmaster lens. Question: I would like to film myself up close playing the electric guitar in low light. Would the 24mm GMaster F1.4 be better so that I can get the whole guitar in the shot? Thank you so much!
Jason Vong what lens would you recommend next I have the A6100 and it came with 16-50mm and E 55-210mm I’m new to photography but want another option for a lens?
I been thinking about this lens for automotive photography. What do u think about it in that field?? From stills to rollers. I been using sigma 35 1.4 with my Sony a7iii. And also have the nifty fifty
Is there any noticeable difference between the 24mm 2.8 prime vs the 24-70mm 2.8 zoom? Given they both open up at 2.8?
Quick question.. I've just got into videography, and going to upgrade my camera to a A7c inc a tamron 28-75mm but which other lens (budget) would you recommend for night street photography?? Grtz Tony
When you take a big landscape pic like the ones in Japan and the one at the boardwalk in LA what focus area do you use? Wide? To get everything in focus like that
You have such FANTASTIC videos. You make me want to escape my desk, grab my Nikon, and GET OUT THERE! Thanks for fanning our flames for the love of photography.
Awesome! I’m happy to hear that! Get out there and create something you love! 😎
I got a Zeiss 24mm/1.8 for $400 and loving it as my first lens ☺️
Would you have the same feelings about the 20mm f/1.8 it is that too wide?
Awesome video! I have a full frame camera that allows me to set it to APS-C crop mode. With a 24 mm lens I could potentially cover around a 35 mm viewpoint in crop mode as well - does anyone do this and if so, is it a bad idea? Thanks!
I want to know is this lent is useful to Sony A7iii my friend
Hey man. Great video. So I already own all of the other primes in this line up. But I haven’t bought this one yet, as I normally shoot video at 50fps. I obviously get an aps-c crop on that, so is it still worth buying with that in mind? Would be interested in your thoughts
What camera are you using
What is the best for vlogging ? 16? For Full frame camera
I went with a wider combo: 20mm1.8 & 55mm1.8
Jason, if you get a chance to see this question, what lens would you recommend for someone who wants to get into video on a A7Rlll or FX3?
Great video! But I have a question.....when will we see the review of the 50 f/1.2?
Jason thanks for the content, I just got a a7siii and I bought an 85 1.8 and was wondering what I could pair with it. I’m going for the 1.4 XD.
24+85 you know how much i love that combo!
Wow! Amazing portrait with the 25mm at 1:29.
What’s better for portraits, a7c with 85mm or 24 mm
Or a6600 with an overall best lens ?
Still deciding between a 20mm and the 24mm, is the focal length difference negligible enough?
I like GM 24mm f1.4. It’s wide, good in Low light, sharp and crispy
How about the 20mm vs 24? Say for travel landscape and architecture. Thanks
jason, your opinion on the zeiss batis 25mm and gmaster 24mm. i had the 85mm batis. i currently have the 135 batis and 24 gmaster
What camera you're using mate?
Annnnd now I own a 24mm prime. Photography as a hobby is expensive......but so with it. Keep these awesome videos coming.
I got 24 mm Gmaster lens a couple of weeks ago... LOVE IT.. until i got the highly talked about 85 mm Sigma DG DN this week... wow... i think 85mm is my new fave. Havent tried a 50mm yet tho... 100-400 zoom next on my list
thank you so much! this helped me understand LIFE 🤣😅
Hey Jason, been following your channel for a wild and learning from you.
I just got my first good camera fresh from the store lol, and with the camera I got 3 prime lenses, 18mm f1.8, 35mm f1.8, 85mm f1.8, the idea was 18 for landscape, 35 for everyday shooting and 85mm for landscape and portrait.
The problem is that I am feeling like it is missing something on my line up, something that I can take with me for some wildlife photography and everything else lol.
Like a really good zoom lens that can cover a good amount of focal length.
Wold love to have some input from you, keep up the amazing work brother
I recently got my first ff mirrorless camera. I want this specific lens for spontaneous family outings where I don't want to carry around a huge lens but want to get great pictures, especially when comparing them to my mobile phone. I want the wider focal length and faster aperture for tight dark environments like at a booth in a restaurant (insert Jason Vong joke 😂)
24 GM always my favourites lens ！
Curious what the little wire on the lens at 0:09 is. Also love your videos man, keep up the great work!
Great video! You forgot to mention 24 can be used as 35mm in super 35 mode when filming with Sony cameras (except A7S series)
Sigma 16mm and 56mm for my a6600. Perfect.
The 24mm GM is the only lens I have for the FX3.
🔥🔥🔥
Does the 20MM G also work
I use budget version of this samyang 24mm lol. It is really great lens. I was amazed what nice things I could do with it - 28 and 35 couldn't do that. And I agree 24 and then something dramatic as of 70 or 85 gives profesional look. I just made my video with 24 doing so macro shots and it became so much more profesionally looking. And yes tight spaces oh yeah XD my room is so compact and it deals with it superb. Also i think 24mm gives kinda closer perspective as our eyes - not exact but it gives those feels already: we usually see details as of 24mm: we come closer and the object becomes big and perspectived
Oh haha you exactly showed my lens at the ending XD
I was just looking for a video on how to use a 24mm lens and this one popped up at the perfect timing lol
😎
Hi Jason. Do you sell your Presets on your photos for lightroom?
My list of gear to buy in order: a7SIII, 24mm GM, DJI RS2, and then 85mm GM.
You’ll be better off getting 85mm 1.8. Better value compared to 1.4
So what other benefits besides a lower aperture is there to a single zoom lens like FE 24mm F1.4 GM and FE 35 mm F1.4 GM vs the FE 16-35mm F2.8 GM? This one lens, I guess in theory, can do both in one lens, right? Clearly I am missing something and I am just really curious. I love the video, I have really learned a lot thanks to you and all your videos! Keep up the great work!
Great video. So I look at it like this at weddings.... If the venue is amazing I use 35mm or 55mm a lot. If it’s ok I use 55mm mostly, if its a poor venue I use the 85mm mostly. Horses for courses. I have more recently stopped discounting zoom lenses. They are amazing as well. :-)
I love to use my 24mm f/2 in a 24/50/105mm three-lens combo.
However, my personal favorite three-lens combo is a 21/35/90mm combo.
I shoot with the Lumix s5 and I have the sigma 85 1.4 and I love it, I'm hoping there's a Lmount 24mm coming out soon
