Lmao, I see I spoke you up in this video! Great to see you in here. Keep up the dope content bro! 💪🏽
haha this comment made my day...
"GM : Gangsta Mode." Now im subscribing yo.
I subscribed right when he said that lol
me 2 xD
The image of a prime vs the convenience of a zoom is a constant struggle. I think you made a good trade though!
Right! I think I came out on the better end of this one tho. Thanks for watching!
Thats where im at with it all the time man, couldn't have said it better myself. Im just starting my youtube channel and im not in love with the image im getting from my 24-70 gmaster and been entertaining getting a 24mm 1.4 because i really want a sharp wide prime. I even tested out the 12-24 the other day in the store with my camera and the test footage is effin bananas!! Like i was mind blown. Anyways the struggle continues lol
I think the only logical sense from this trade is, you've got a much more expensive lens for a lot less. Other than that ...the rest of ur reasons don't make sense cos a prime has its place and a zoom lens has its place too. When shooting with a prime...ur mind shouldn't be even considering shots at other focal lengths. Also the decision to put on a prime lens on ur body in the first place is based on what you are about to shoot. If u r gonna be shooting a scene where u are the only photographer and the client is expecting a variety of photos, then u either have 2 bodies with primes on them or a single body with a zoom that covers the focal ranges of both the primes or have 2 photographers. So yea ...I think you need both..the prime and the zoom and use them as per requirement of the job. I think u know this and that the only real reason you went ahead with the deal is cos u were getting the better end of itl. With the money saved from the exchange, you are going to buy the 24mm 1.4 back in some time. Haha..only time will tell!
The Camera Conspiracies reference, love it. Dude cracks me up...
Yeah he’s hilarious

Oh and by the way, I used the A7siii to film this video with the Sigma 16mm f1.4 crop lens, with eye and face tracking!
Sometime versatility is KING. You do you. Great job.
For sure! Thanks man!
To me, 24mm has never been wide enough and 70mm never long enough. 24-70 is no doubt a range that I can do without. 16-35, 70-200 coupled with some primes was the way to go for me. Surely, this has been the case for me and my style of photography and might not be the best for many people out there.
When I first started doing weddings years ago, I used a 24-70 because that's what was taught to do. Years later when I switched to Sony, I traded my zooms for f/1.4 primes and two dual cameras. That kinda worked for a while, but then I got the Sigma 24-70 and used that for my weddings, and it's been such a relief! I forgot that I could cover 80% of the wedding day with just one camera and lens, and just switch to a 14-24 or 70-200 for the little bit of time that I would need them. The other advantage was that with that particular lens, the minimum autofocus distance is INSANELY close..like to the tip of the lens hood close, which makes it perfect for detail and pseudo-macro shots! Some say that primes are sharper than zooms, but that's relative. Some say that the bokeh is better on primes, but that's also relative, and dependent on personal preference. Sure, you'll get 2-stops of light difference for less noise, but the Sony files give lots of room for adjusting and noise reduction in editing. Regardless, it is always good to use the gear that works for YOU!
Wow you got a great deal on it! Did you consider the Sigma 24-70 2.8? Im looking at that for next year.
@@gregorybeale Yes, I mentioned it in my post. It's a must-have lens!
Thank you for this comment. I currently own 2 prime lenses from the sigma trio for my APS-C and I will upgrade to a full frame in the future. I shoot families on occasion but I mainly use my camera for making contents, as that’s how I am learning. Even in a controlled environment like mine, I already find changing lenses to be a hassle especially when I use a gimbal. I can imagine that being more so for you on your wedding shoots. I am definitely considering the 24-70. Cheers.
Great video, Terry. Thank you! I can relate to the problem! My current combo is the 20mm f1.8 plus the 24-105mm F4.
Got me sold mate. Subscribed to this great content and just added a 24 1.4 to my shopping basket because I do talking head and I also love that look.
The thing i love about this is that you identified what your use case is and picked the right tools for that job. I've got the 24 GM with the tamron 28-75, and couldn't be happier with the pair. You've gotta have a normal range zoom in your kit!
Top Notch Content homie. I'm deciding between these 2 lenses for my a7c. Salut
So helpful!!! Thank you!!! Love your videos!!
Learning alot. Thanks for the great info pal. Appreciate the time.
Thats why I like the combo of 24, 55 & 24-105 - can break out the zoom if you get sick of changing lenses. But if I was doing paid work I’d go for two bodies - stick the 24 on one and a 55 or 85 on the other. That’s a no compromise setup that’s easier to use.
Gotta love the versatility of zooms. Great trade👏👍
For sure! Thanks for watching bro!
This video is so helpful! I just grabbed the Sigma 24-70 for my FX3 and I'm super excited to see what I can create! Glad I found you and subscribed!
I would have done the same, the versatility is unbeatable and shoot, can't beat that trade deal. That's a come up! Dope video my guy.
Thank you man!
I can’t wait for my
16-35 2.8 Gansta Mode!
I want that one too haha
Totally second your decision as a zoom lens dude myself! Having shot weddings for 6 years now I can't tell you enough how zoom lenses have saved my life in those moments when you have a split second to capture the shot.
I would like to get the 24-70GM but it's too $ so currently stuck with the Tamron 28-75 f2.8.
Yeah this zoom is clutch. And why not shoot for the sigma 24-70? It’s literally just as good as the Gm for a thousand bucks cheaper
@@TerryWarfield might look into that. Thanks!
You explain so well, congrats for your speech. I loved it!
when you say, it's a shoulder workout kind of heavy, I subscribed in a heartbeat. he ain't lyin 😅🤣
Hahaha I appreciate you
I agree. I have a few primes, but I use the 24-70 for almost everything. The image is sick and the the 2.8 is still amazing for most situations. It just makes run and gun so much easier
can you do a video on what filters you use and why? really entertaining videos man!
Thanks for the honest insight brotha! 🤜🤛
Thanks for watching!
Damn, that is a huge come up! I’ve actually been considering selling a couple of my primes to slim down my kit and getting the Sigma 24-70 2.8.
I think you would be happy with that!!
I'd suggest check the tamron out. IQ is incredible for the size and price. I would either pick the tamron on a budget or the gm for the absolute best. I've seen quite a few reviews comparing the tamron to the gm and I really couldn't tell a difference.
I've had the tamron for more than a year now and it's my favourite
@Whatever Keeps You Calm true it also depends on what you do. I tend to shoot on gimbal and 28-70 is my most used. My arms are probably weak to constantly handle the sigma on a gimbal
My wife and I just went the opposite direction. A big reason we can do that is that we have 2 camera bodies. So we will be using the 24mm f/1.4 and the 85mm f/1.4. We shoot a lot of low light type of situations and having the extra stop was important to us. That being said the 24-70mm is an amazing lens and it makes perfect sense for the trade.
Very informative video thanks 🙏
Thanks for sharing, happy to know I am not the onlyone scanning for lenses.
That's why I use 2 bodies with 2 primes. But still sometimes I feel like a 24-70 could be much better. However if I have the time or want to get creative, primes are a joy to use.
Yea I picked up 16-35 G Master and it doesn’t leave my camera ever. On the A7iii plus crop mode, plus clear image zoom, I can’t miss. The 24-70 I think was a smart move for all the reasons you mentioned.
The other option would have been to have kept the 24/1.4 & I think you mentioned in a prior video that you had a 85GM already, so just to have bought a second body. This way, you’d have instant access to both 24 & 85 and both at 1.4, and if you are doing paid work, it also gives you the safety net of a back up body should something go wrong.
Wow, good deal and points, and wish you all the best with the new zoom. Next video comparison to Sigma 24 - 70?
Very nice video too!! I would love to see a bit more footage since at the end of the day for me that is the main reason unless of course you say we are going to talk lots about a lens.
You information is great.
I am going to wait however for an update of 24-70 since it has not been updated for a very long time and pair it with A1.
Since 135 - 1.8 is a much newer lens I am curious to see what happens.
Have you tried to the 135 1.8 GM?
If not when will you?
That should be cool I would think.
Keep crushing it!
Yeah I’m thinking of adding the 24-70 Sigma to my kit! I’m in love with my 35mm 1.4 right now!The advantages of the versatility vs the 1.4 is really something I’ve been trying to figure out. That 82mm filter scares me though! Gonna cost me some cash when I get filters.
I think that sigma 24-70 is the wave! If i had to BUY one I for sure would have gotten the sigma
Great energy. Wish you all the best!
Get yourself a second body and rock two prime lenses. Ideal set up with no compromise on image quality.
That’s exactly my thoughts as soon as I heard his complaints.
Agreed.
Pretty sure most pros carry at least 6 or maybe 7 cameras with different lenses on their bodies at all times.
@@Altai22 how and why would a "pro" need to carry 6 or 7 cameras with mounted lenses on? As if more is better and someone likes to carry like 20 kg of gear.2-3 lenses for event photography maybe if you need the low-light capability of a 1.4 prime or something.New modern zoom lenses are incredibly sharp and i´d say if you compare a excellent zoom with a mediocre prime with high aperture - i´d take the zoom. It all depends on ur needs and what genre you are specialised in. Landscape photographs mostly carry 2-3 lenses i´d say because if you travel and hike around areas - every pound you can save starts to count and you have the time to change lenses and arent in need of multiple bodies.
@@Istdochallesnurgeklauteyo woosh
Great video! Keep up the great work
That's a nice come up! I use the 24-70 Sigma myself.
Great channel dude... One question at 24mm with lens is sharper?
Yo Fam, I watched a couple of your Vids before, but after this video I had to subscribe... Salute!!!
Bro you came up. Great video, im impressed.
Hell of a deal. I have the 24-105 for now but I’m eyeing that one for the future. I thought you were going to say the 20mm from the beginning. I’m loving mine so far.
Haha. I love the 20mm too. I’m going to end up buying one or either another 24mm once I have some more money saved up
Subbed mate. I brought and sold the 24 twice now, settled on the 20 and hopefully pick up the rumoured 16mm GM next year.
Ok so I have the 24mm and a few months ago bought a 24-70 and had the exact same issue as you. My workflow isn’t compatible with constantly changing lenses. I’ve got a buyer lined up for my 24 for this weekend and now I’m watching videos of 24s bc I’m on the fence lmao. Thanks for continuing to convince me
Bro, I did the same thing. I had my 24mm for like 2 weeks and then traded up for the 24-70 GM. I live in Korea where there are tons of camera shops with all the lenses you can think of, so I paid an additional 500 dollars to 'upgrade'. With the high ISO of my A7iii, A9, and even 6400, I don't miss a thing. Plus, editing photos in post provides the same quality of photos...Get the more versatile lens.
Stumbled across your video by accident. Dope video, entertaining, and you in the gym. Had to sub. I'll check out more of your videos this week. PEACE from ATL ✊🏾📸
WhAt up my guy! Thanks for joining the squad!
Nice to see you hear bro!
You got a sweet deal! Now tell me the 16mm sigma, how much vignetting are you getting and how much cropping do you have to do?
Actually making an entire video on this. But had to crop in about 15-20% to get rid of the vignette and back to a 24mm equivalent FOV
what a deal! The 24-70/2.8 used is just about the same price of a 24mm so I'm not too surprised he did a straight trade.
Yeah I found that out today lol
😆
But the 24mm was also used.
Smooth deal to me. I'd do like you said tho and resale for the sigma or tamron 24-70 and the 24 1.4
Great review! You just got a new sub! I'm on the CLE as well. I'd love to meet up sometime and compare notes or maybe do some TH-cam collabs. 🤘😎
I did the same exact thing with the 24-70 GM but I had a 40mm batis and 24-70 f4. It's a great lens!
Had my sub at “gangsta mode” 😂
Haha my guy
You’re not crazy. I bought a Sigma 24-70 when I bought my A7C and it’s literally the only lens I own and I use it for everything! However now that I have the A7IV I wish I had Sony G master so I could have better active stabilization on top of that new focus breathing compensation feature that added
Hey man what lens would be best for gimbol shots? I got the a7iii
Awesome video, love your camera charisma. (I think your audio is a little clipped though?). Subscribed
Thank you! And yes The audio was a little hot, my apologies! Working on fine tuning the audio
Bro, your videos are a breath of fresh air compared to the rest of TH-cam photographers out there. Keep it up - love your stuff! - J
I totally get it. I have an 85mm GM and hated swopping out lenses all the time. So got the Sigma 24 to 70mm and never looked back
Great video! I’m on Canon and I loooooove the 24 1.4 but the versatility of 24-70 2.8 is huge and I’m not made of money so can’t really do both and I love a simple kit. Gonna make the switch. 🥂
U saved my money right now cuz i was looking into the 24mm & I already had the 24-70 GM...and you’ve reminded me that I NEED TO USE IT MORE OFTEN lol Thanks man!
THANKS FOR SHARING! NEW FANS HERE
The video looked great! The crop lens doesn't look bad at all!
Thanks you! For sure it works!
Cool video and comparison!
Thanks man!
I got the 24-70 2.8 tamron G2. Super versatile for just about any situation.
Literally laughed out loud at "you right but shut up" (5:34). Not sure if it's the delivery or the sentiment, but it changed me.
My first lense was a sony 16-35 GM. Wish I would have went with the 24-70 GM. Much more versatile. I almost never shoot at 16mm. Mostly, 24-85mm. I did just pick up the 24mm GM. Havent got a chance to use it much. Hoping to over winter break. Thanks for the video. Watch out for those Zoom haters...!
Same. I really wanted the 16-35 at first but now that I have the 24-70, I think it’s a much better fit for my usage
great talking! What lens you have used for shooting THIS Video by the way? )
Tamron 28-75mm f2.8 8 is my go to for this. Light weight and f2.8 cost at near half price 👍🏿
Also I have the 17-28mm
Twin peaks right there 👍🏿
What the heck man, you only have 18k subscribers? This video was clutch, I think you talked me into getting the 24mm and probably putting the 24-70mm on my list.
That’s a major trade-up man. Cheers. Just ordered the 24-70 Sigma myself!
By the way, I’m buying A7siii tomorrow with the same 24-70 gm ❤️
Can’t wait
NICE!!!
Felt like I was in math class at the end of the video lol Dope vid bruh
😂😂😂
Yeah, as much as I love primes, the versatility of zooms is hard to say no to. I use the 24-70 2.8 Sigma Art on my a7RIII and it’s just an absolute beast and workhorse, built like a tank with just beautiful results.
I loved the Sigma APS-C primes on my a6300 but for travel and every day usage, it’s gotta be the 24-70
Facts. I’ll likely get another 24mm. But right now, this versatility and sharpness is a much better fit
I remember when you got that and I remember a *very* hyped man. You must mean what you say about that 24-70. I own the Canon L (their high end line, red ring around the front) versions of both their 24mm f1.4 and 24-70 f/2.8 and have experienced the same results. Sharp af and versatile. These days I only use the prime in the club. I do lots of party/crowd/on the dance floor shoots for a DJ company and it reigns supreme in that setting, but for everything else it’s the 24-70 or my 70-200L big grey lady. Zoom FTW if we’re talking high end copies like the G-Master and the L Series. Man your videos are getting better each time you release. Production on point.
(One critique: Yo. Got to your fonts folder on your computer and delete the following fonts: Arial, Comic Sans, and Papyrus. You’ll thank me later. They’re a punchline in the design world for a reason. Overuse, and by all the wrong people. I caught a whiff of Papyrus at the beginning. Said this out of love. Get a second opinion, ask any designer friend about those three fonts)
"Gangster Mode." Damn I'm loving this channel.
Question man.. you said you were able to get apsc lense on the a7s3, cropped in post and still got 4k.. how? When i read online, the a7s3 with a 1 to 1 pixel readout will do only full hd when apsc crop mode. I know you said you cropped in post but crop is crop.. I just really want to know if i can turn a 35mm into a 50mm with apsc and still get 4k
Sounds like a heck of a trade! I would have done the same thing man! I've been looking at that Sigma 24-70 for the Sony A7C.
Saw the 16-35GM at Best Buy and it’s not as big as I expected. Loved the compactness of that zoom. But then again I have the 24-70GM so anything is going to be small for me lol.
Man this bad boy is MASSIVE lol
oh same, I was about to say cause I own the 24-70 GM and it’s a work out but you get used to it 😅 it’s heavier than the 16-35 GM so now I’m
Like oh that’s LIGHT work 🤣
The swap worked in your favor. Now that you are here take my advice- (I have been doing this stuff since the early 70s) I don’t know everything but I will tell you never sell quality. Don’t be afraid to acquire quality. If you had bought into a cheaper lens you could not have made your awesome swap. You still have around $1,000 equity in your deal - save for a 70-200 or cash in for the 20mm or the 35 1.8. Great job on the piece - your killing it - keep working hard
I’m with you on this bro. So tired of swapping lenses and risking dust on the sensor etc. I just want to have one lens on my camera for 90% of what I’m shooting. I copped a brand new 28-70 kit lens from a local listing for $150 and haven’t taken it off my a7siii yet. Not the BEST lens but still usable for almost everything...for $150 im laughing
Yeah man. Convenience is king. Also, make the best out of what you have! You can make some killer stuff with that combo. Obviously your results will only get better with better glass!
For such an expensive camera you need better glass mate. Glass> camera. Always
I have the tamron 28-75 2.8 it’s a hell of a lens
Got this gm glass on my a7R2 since 3 weeks. Its an awesome Piece of Glass and Metal.
Nice 👍 I also sold my 24mm 1.4gm after one year..it's a great lens but too wide. I think 35mm 1.4 GM will be soon announced.
I just bought an A 7iii last week and need a really good lens . What should I get ?
Yo! Major congrats almost doubled your subscribers in 8 months!!!!
The primes perfect when you have time to be artistic, when I shoot for money I work with zoom only. Good choice.
Hi men... great stuff, can you do a compare from the sigma 16mm to the sony 20mm when you have the chance, I wander if the stabilising crops just enough to avoid the vignetting. peace.
Great video! Still debating on Sony vs Sigma
I compared this to the Tamron 17-70 2.8 on aps-s. The sharpness is so good on the Tamron. I can get an 18mp grab on my riii and I’m happy. I have the Sigma 24-70 and it’s stellar. For a backup, the 6400 w/Tamron is just great.
Which one is better tho? The Tamron or Sigma(outside the different focal lenght)?
@@sadeqsegaraga8766
Both are stellar.
What a nice deal man . Nice trade . Keep creating the best that you already do . Nice video terry 👍
Thanks bro! I really appreciate that!
Nice choice but i love the 28-75. 2.8 Tamron.
I was expecting something different, I actually agree.
💯💯
You made a hell of a deal!
I’d say so haha
I was ready to flame you for the trade until you said you swapped straight up, no cash on top. You hit a lick with this one. No brainer
😂😂😂😂
Thank You For The Video I Have The Sigma 24-70mm Lens And Was Thinking About Getting The 24mm GM For Video And Your Video Help A lot With My Decision .
That's a real lucky swap man, value wise. But since I ain't jacked like you, I went with the Sigma 28-70 + Sony 20 1.8. That's all my puny arms can handle! 😂
Tell you what though, that combo punches way above its weight class (and price tag).
Keep up the good work!
Great thoughts. Just gotta say, the Sigma 24-70 is amazing BUT the dust accumulation inside is so bad 😭 I’m selling and getting the 24 1.4
Hey Terry Congrats. I have them both and as long as your ok with the weight man keep that lens it's a great deal and it's a very sharp lens. Don't trade it for the Tamron I had it as well no. Not as sharp and you can see the difference. I also own the Tamron, the Tamron does have more of a warmer feeling and it's super lightweight and a little tight on the wide end being 28mm . The 24-70gm is all most to clean and the sharpness is well you said it, its like having a prime all the way though, its a great lens. The 24gm is one of the best lens because it's really a full package lightweight, sharp and fast. I wish sonys whole GM line was like that. Anyway love your content and keep up the great work you'll be at 100k soon buddy. Stay Blessed
I always use 2 cameras at a wedding, 24mm and 85mm, I can easily swap 2 cameras and it works greatly
