Sony flew me and a lot of other camera press out to Sanfransico for their 24mm F1.4 GM G-Master lens reveal. I spent a full day shooting 4K video with this lens and I'm very impressed. It's very sharp with minimal distortion and vignetting. The lens autofocuses slightly slower than others so I turned the focus speed up from medium to fast and that solved the issue. This lens is perfect for a gimbal. I used the Crane 2 by Zhiyun and the results speak for themselves. Check out my hands on review and why I'm buying this lens.

is it better than the 25mm Batis F2?
Max Yuryev Hello Max! Would you say it is wide enough for real estate video? Greetings
No I don't think so. I would get something in the realm of 16MM. 12-24 F4, 16-35 2.8 GM (or F4) or maybe Laowa 15mm F2 (I use this).
Max Yuryev thanks Max, appreciate it. We’ve been thinking in the Zeiss f/4 or maybe the GM f/2.8 despite his high price tag for now. Keep up the great work! Greetings from Lisbon
These shots were on an A7r3 body, right?
My testimony of how light this lens was 😂😂😂
Jason Vong which is better, 25mm batis or this new GM?
Jason Vong you can come ride my Cablecar too!
I know :) Vivian's expression was golden 😂1:13
is it better than the 25mm Batis F2?
I want it!
No selfie screen though... can you handle it? ;)
Unfortunately, what knocked me off my chair was the bad color shift when you switched to the 24mm! Please explain what we are seeing.
I love seeing all my fav youtuber photographer collab with each other in the videos!!! Support and stay together!
As always great hanging with you Max and we should collab soon!
Heck yes definitely!
Good to see you back friend!
Thanks Caleb :)
you can buy the Tamron 28/75 f2.8 and the new Sony 24 f1.4 for less money than just the 24/70 GM alone
photographerjonathan that’s basically what I’m doing lol.
Good point!- now I can totally justify wanting this new prime lens less than two weeks after buying the Tamron ( won't have that lens in my hands until next week, though!) Thanks!
The 24/70 GM stinks...mine did anyway. It has lots of distortion at the wide end and is quite soft at 2.8, especially toward the tight end of the focal range. It needs to be stopped down to F4 to be really sharp, and looks the best around 50mm. I returned it in favor of a 50mm F1.4 Sony Zeiss and couldn't be happier...saved some money too!
Yup. I love that combo
that's what i'm doing
Suddenly I see 6 new videos on the new lens in my subscription feed -- all within 10 minutes! Excited about this lens. Thanks for posting!
The way that it grabs focus pretty quick in video is definitely impressive, It's cool to see other personalities that I follow on YT 😄
Great vid Max
is it better than the 25mm Batis F2?
@@funnyworld9784 much sharper then batis 25mm , Both in the middle and edge to edge
The best video of this type (lens/camera review) I've seen in a long, looks like you put the time in when others were kicking back.
I joined the preorder this morning. I decided to return the Batis 25 in order to buy the GM. Not super excited about having to wait more than a month for it to ship but I'm sure it'll be worth it
Great lens for low light and astro photography. Love it.
Interesting review. I was taken by surprised when at 6:25 you literally say "it's a decent price - it's a bit expensive" and present a graphic of it being 2nd cheapest (though the gap is wide with the Sigma), and the same graphic showing what are probably the best specifications. It seems like the reasonable thing to say is "it's pricey, but compared to the competition for it's capability - a great value."
That’s basically what I meant to say :)
Great review which, although it is brief, captures very well your obvious enthusiasm for this lens. The people who follow you, like me, notice when you are really struck by something good. This lens is clearly outstanding. Thanks for the very helpful review.
Great video max, I’ve been thinking about moving from Olympus m4/3 to the Sony A7III and this has just made my mind up as 24mm is my preferred focal length.
(0:25) Max's face changed color dramatically, but nobody mentions it. I'm not sure if I like Sony lens' rendering.
Thanks for another great review, Max. How does the 24mm 1.4 GM compare to the 16-35 2.8 GM for video on a DJI Ronin-S?
The colour on your face when you swapped to the 24mm in the forest was horrible! Is that your grading or the lens that makes your face go a shade of yellow/green? Or is that natural and the 28mm is just oversaturating it? Either way it doesnt look like a flattering vlogging lens
Its both coloring (being quick) and that shot was recorded a little bit later (waiting for people to walk by) the lighting changing and the tough thing about so much greenery is reflections that cause color on your face.
The 28mm looked fine to me, not mentioning that the amount of blur one can achieve is not the best way to measure sharpness!
Still waiting for an 16-55 f2.8 Aps-c E-mount lens from Sony.
Sad but probably true
Max, I have preordered this lens. Many are saying it was very green compared to the Tamron. But I take your word that it is a excellent lens. Cheers and thanks
Nice review as always. I know this was just for demonstration but candidly I hope we don’t see a lot of vlogging with such a shallow DOF especially when in interesting areas. So many of these shots I was hoping to see the sights of San Francisco behind the subject.
Forget the lens, at 2:43 I saw something amazing! I want that slider, so much cheaper than edelkrone!!!!
Same! That caught my eye! What slider is that??
It's the Slider Mini by Smartta, which is currently in the 2nd round of crowdfunding :-)
www.indiegogo.com/projects/slidermini-ultra-portable-smooth-camera-slider#/
Brian Ng video is on my channel.
Just watched your video on it, sad that it didn't take the fall well.
Dave Dugdale yeah but it's a good thing it happened because they're already looking into it to make it stronger. I also suggested a way to lock it while transporting it, if it had something like that this wouldn't have happened.
I think the Tamron looked better.
I get the run and gun Vloger likes to shoot wide to fit at arms length, but it always looks better, more professional when you either have a tripod/camera man that can put the camera further back using a longer lens.
The colours of the Tamron look much better then the Gmaster lens! 0:23 / 0: 28 Also even though there is plenty of blur, the image looks rather flat to me.
and greenish
Perhaps it was the abundance of green being reflected from the green trees but with the GM Max's face looked green but not with the Tamron and the shape of his head was different from the Tamron.
I have the 85mm G-master, which is definitely greenish compared to my 50mm 1.4 Sony-Zeiss. That one leans more towards blue/violet. I think the greenish thing might just be a Gmaster prime thing. I also own the 16-35GM and it doesn't look green...go figure.
Could be that he didn't color-grade that part of footage? I see the same green cast when I shot in log b4 grading ....
Yes that Sony lens is wider and has better bokeh, but damn that Tamron looked pretty good.
Love watching videos like this and playing spot the youtubers. Great video max
Mad Max those were some amazing shots.
Not going to lie, as an astrophotographer this is quite a significant lens. It's the kind of thing that might encourage me to hop from Nikon to Sony.
Still waiting on the 35 1.4 GM now, love this lens, hope they make a 35 that is just as good, and the 50 definitely needs updating too.
I would go with the 55MM F1.8 Sony Zeiss lens.
Absolutely amazing video! 11 bladed and there is Fro in the background 👍🏼🥂👀🙏🏼 Beautiful work here Max!
Hey Max, can you compare the sony gm 24mm f1.4 with the Fuji 16mm f1.4. It will be an interesting comparison 😄I guess
Congrats to Jason Vong!!! He finally made it to a sony event!
Hi Max, great video as usual. Can you comment on why the red tones seemed to disappear when you switched from the Tamron to the Sony 24mm GM? I was planning on ordering it but this scene has given me pause.
Max Yuryev, Jared Polin, the dpreview guys, Manny Ortiz.. that was a hell of a boat ride :)
great lens! wonder why every other company keeps the 7/9 aperture blades ...
Max ! Did you sorted problems with your channel ?
:( nope..
I hope you will . I like your videos. They are very helpful. All the best to you MAX
AMAZING lenses. My favorite, by far.
Linear focus!?!?!? F..............ING FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please Sony, make ALL lenses with linear focus rings!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Can this be the only lens I buy? I plan to get a A7iii and would prefer only one lens.
So glad I just sold my 24-70 G and ordered this Lens
Great video Max!
how about zeiss 25mm f2.0 comparing to this?
Dingyi Shang that’s the review I want to see also!
it seems batis 25/2.0 no longer has a meaning to exist, unless the zeiss/tamron logo means something...
I own Batis 25mm but now i want THIS!
Great video thanks !!! Really would want to see a comparison between this one and the sigma e mount version
And is it better than the 25mm Batis F2?
Max,
I watched a lot of TH-camrs complaining about the sony a7 series flip screen and how it’s semi impassible to vlog with. Do you agree with that or in other way Do you recommend it ???!
It’s full frame sensor, some shot 4k not crop and excellent for photographers.
Its definitely not impossible. If you know how to hold the camera in front of you and preset exposure (or let the camera decide) you don't NEED to see what the framing looks like. (but it would be nice to have)
Bro great video right from the jump!
Good to see Jason and Vivian in your video.
Nice video bro, is this lens stabilized?
I'd like to see a comparison this and Sigma's 24mm f/1.4.
Im really not a huge fan of the colour rendering, the tamron seems to render colour more pleasantly. Whats your opinion on the colour rendition? Considering you have used the Tamron extensively (as do I). Ive been really keen for a new prime, not sure if this is the one...
damn i normally dont notice the RS but damn it was crazy at 2:58. good first look as always Max i hope YT stopped cheating you
Nope they haven’t.
Dang, looks great! I was hoping for a 20mm 1.4 or a 14mm-16mm 1.8 like Sigma’s offering but a G Master version. But I may just snag this one!
You never mention Batis 2/25. I was asking folks on DPReview and a whole lot of people that have Batis 2/25 are not bothering with getting this lens. If you have to have another stop perhaps but stopped down to f/2 aa you might anyway, the Zeiss has nothing to envy to GM for.
Wow looks fantastic!
What a great looking lens!
This video was so nice, great content as always. I assume you will jump on a potential new Sony APS-C camera, if and when they release it and compare it to the a6300 and a6500.
Dennis Olof Yes. Then sell my a6300 and possibly a6500.
Nice, I will be waiting for a review. Fingers crossed that there will be a new APS-C from Sony.
0:25 His lips said 1.8 but the audio said 1.4 lol Am i tripping?
i didn't notice but yep it totally looks like he has had to redo that section in post
At 4:03 "even shooting wide open at F1.8" 😅
haha yea I had to fix that.
Oh you aced that fix. I didn't even notice
Was this shot in slog or what profile did you shoot in?
I wanted to buy the sony zeiss 35mm f1.4 but I think I am going to buy the 24mm f1.4 GM instead 😃
Milan Kollar i had the 35 1.4 and will get the 24 gm 😁.... the 35 1.4 was bloody 640 g plus expensive. The Gm is also expensive but lighter, native , Gm, smaller , and most importantly my favorite focal length 24 ☝️😀
An easy-to-understand video! It will be helpful!
Just got the 24mm! By the way, do you shoot 24fps or 30fps for your vlogs?
You say the video autofocus is slow... Does that mean it is jittery (like the Sigma 24mm) when transitioning, or just slow yet smooth?
Great video, great lens. 👍
Thank you!
Impressed b this lens! Could be my next one ☝🏽
Awesome video, thanks!
I'm picking up a Sony A7iii soon, but I'm going with that Tamron 28-75mm instead ahahaha. Better bang for buck Imo since it's got a really solid zoom range and constant aperture.
Hey max, was just wondering if you ended up purchasing the lens or changed your mind last minute?
Very nice video, sorry to ask, I back-ordered the zoom 24-105mm f4 sony lens for my a7iii but watching your review , I was wondering if I should cancel my back-order and just get the 24mm 1.4 lens? I currently have the 55mm f1.8 lens which i love and the 70-200mm f4 as well, I thought the 24-105mm lens would be a good carry around lens but I was wondering if the 24mm 1.4 lens would be sufficient for indoor group photos, protrait photos where i want some more of the background showing in the photo and for landscape photos, as well as video shooting of my kid's sports, or should i stick with the 24-105mm zoom lens. I am really worried about giving up the zoom feature for the f1.4 and the light weight of the 24mm lens. I also have the a6000 with the 16-70 f4 zeiss and i find that the zoom lens is more useful for me for general photography of my kids and family photos so I thought the 24-105mm f4 for my a7iii would do the same but now i am having second thoughts because of this new 24mm f1.4 lens coming out. I really do like the prime lenses because of how much nicer looking the photos (of my family and fast moving kids...) as well as the fast auto focus so I am really on the fence on whether to keep the 24-105mm back order or take the pre order on the 24mm 1.4 lens instead. I was also worried about the weight on the 24-105mm f4 for general carry around vs the 24mm 1.4 lens. I hope you may have some expert opinion on this... sorry for the long comment.
Do you have any experience with the Batis 25 f/2? I just bought one and now I'm considering returning it to buy the GM.
I don't. It is lighter with a closer minimal focusing distance but the Sony lets in an extra stop of light. I would go with the GM.
@@MaksimYuryev yeah I sent back the Batis yesterday and got onto the preorder list. It sucks that it doesn't ship for another 5 weeks but I'm excited to get it either way
nice Max,,is that a Peak design clip,you attached the Sony to?
when I notice I know most of the guys on that boat, I realize I already fell into the deep hole of photo/videography
Looking for the backpack. Badass
Cool review!
hey Max!
How did it handle distortion?
I'm looking into real estate/architecture photography and have been deciding between a solid 24mm prime, or a wide zoom until i can afford adapting a Canon tiltshift!
What did you think of the flair? It looked pretty bad on some of the other reviews I’ve seen.
I'm tellin you now. Sony is kickin ass. Their system is getting better and better. The other biggie. Naming Canon and Nikon got their ass drilled. Mirrorless is the future. Sony, please build a tougher body then game over
Hi Max! I'm interested in the A7iii but have been hearing about mic input issues as reported by Henbu and Jason Anthony. I also heard that the data output ports are not too strong and prone to damage. Are these overblown issues or are they valid concerns?
your skin tones look really green in this video, probably because of all the ambient light from the trees
I lost a wife after investing in sony camera and lenses and I do not regret it :D
True Sony Addict!
awww
now you can pick up a model
You are better off 💋💃🏻♥️👍🏼🥂 Sony cameras (or any camera for that fact) never bitch at you, never pass judgment, don't argue... Matter of fact, they encourage you to go out and stay out late 🙏🏼🖐🏼🎤 Enjoy your new found freedom ♥️ 📷 Happiness is just around the corner 💋💃🏻
screenshot... sending comment to your wife!! 😂👍
Beautiful lens and review. My bank account loves me. Haha
Great video!
Great man, what is your TH-cam exporting setting in premiere pro?
Everyone I watch was on that boat lmao 😂🤦🏾♂️
Wow stuff!
If I purchase this lens, is an ND filter necessary to get to the most out of this lens? I’m a complete novice. Not ever sure what filters do. Thanks.
5:08 Impressive shot.
Great video!
I just have a question: which profile is better for filming pp7 (Slog2) of pp10 (HLG2) in terms of dynamic range?
Everybody is filming in Slog2 but sony announced the pp10 and said its so good. Whats your oppinion on it?
What we now want to know is if you’re getting the iPhone XS “Max” edition.
Nice one
hi your video help to much please can you tell me which one you prefer for video lense and what you think is better a7 r iii for video then a7 iii
Would this be a good primary lens for photographing the Great Pyramids of Egypt?
Looks like fantastic lens for everything expert for vlogging from small distance. At 0.26sec. when you have switched to this lens your head looks ridiculously stretched out :) , there Batis 25 2 might work better.
Can you vlog on 24mm at normal distance?
Have you noticed 24mm focus pulsing (tiny evf image zooming in and out, and you can feel the motor when holding the lens) ) when using narrow apetures? Mine starts from f4 and is the worst on f11 and f16.
When you see all your favourite TH-camrs in one video :')
