    Hey yo, quick tip to anyone who doesn't vlog or point a camera at their own face from a couple centimeters away.. A 24-70 f/2.8 is pretty much the only lens you will need if filming with a full frame camera, I'd recommend the sigma unless you've got very deep pockets. Also love your new secretary Matti, he knows his codecs well. 👌

    • @urbanrunoff
      @urbanrunoff 2 года назад +7

      so true. if i'd shoot a documentary with a director/producer the 24-70 or even 24-105 would be my first choice. maybe a prime for b-roll after that if we have time. Been there done that, if your job is to get the shot... .

    A 24-70 is a very versatile lens, it's great if you're just starting out in filmmaking and you're wondering which lens should you buy first, also a good 24-70 lens will last you a lifetime. On the other hand, your comment is valid, it may lack character however you can also upgrade your gear in the future and opt for a good prime lens set.
    Tip: Own the basics and rent the rest if you're doing this as a career 😉

  • @CamberFilmSchool
    @CamberFilmSchool 2 года назад +5

    The tightening of the zoom ring is probably so that it won't change focal lengths if it gets bumped or for an overhead shot so that the weight of the lens doesn't change the focal length (that has happened to me on a sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 because it was really loose). Loosening focal ring it will help with smoother zooms.

    I use the sigma 24-70 2.8 ART and it’s one of the best lenses I’ve ever owned. It’s so versatile and I use it on most if not every shoot unless I’m using my underwater housing, or doing architecture photography in which I use my 20mm 1.8. Carrying 4 lenses to achieve the relatively same focusing range (24mm 35mm 50mm and 85mm), just isn’t realistic for a lot of people who aren’t in a studio.
    This lens looks great but with already owning the sigma, this doesn’t offer enough difference

    It's funny to hear you say that you find the 24-70mm f/2.8 to be too average. I didn't buy one for the same reason. I purchased ultra-wide and telephoto zooms & primes in 35mm f/1.2 & anamorphic 50mm t/2.9 instead. But, for "run&gun" video I usually use a 24-105mm f/4 macro stabilised lens, as it covers a larger zoom range. (Panasonic S1H.)

  • @Potaters12

  • @steezcnoir

    Totally agree with you. Like most people would say, this is just a one shot lens where you don’t have to change lens much. I use primes mainly so it’s either super wide or 70-200 would be my zoom I have. Btw, I purchased your NMO boxy t and crew neck long sleeve!

    I have to say, I had a 16-35 for a while, but when you're actually going light, it just isn't enough range for pulling an interesting variety of shots together for a mini-sequence, especially on FF! Switched out to a 24-70 2.8ii (Canon) a few years ago and never looked back. Truly cannot love any 24-105 or similar though, that F4 just really takes the edge off everything and it's just a bit dull! Joined the Fx6 gang a month ago now though, so looking at the painful reality of selling all my canon glass as that sony AF is just W I L D.

    24-70 is my most important lens it’s for run and gun situation most versatile and the very decent low light great for events and parties scenario I wouldn’t trade it up for anything else my work horse bread and butter lens

    honestly I have never had one either. I had the 24-105 lens but the ONLY reason i had it was because I couldnt affort nice prime lenses. and I found myself in jobs where i didnt have time to swap glass. NOW, though. I pretty much only shoot at 24mm or 85mm. Yes. I only use primes now. and i LUUUUURV it.

    Interesting to hear why you haven’t purchased a 24-70. What’s interesting is your reasons not to buy are the reasons that is my number one go-to lens. I don’t like to carry three lenses (35mm, 50mm, & 85mm) when I can have one that covers roughly the same range. When was the last time I needed more than f/2.8? Can’t remember. In fact, f/2.8 is more than most of m6 shots. Sure, you get amazing bokeh with an f/1.2 but that is just over two stops better. It also makes the focus plane about five mm thick, so eye in focus but nose out. Love my RF 24-70. It’s always on my camera, every day, walk around lens.

      depth of field is relative to the distance from subject, so a 50 f1.2 wide open actually have decent depth of field and subject separation for mid length to full body shots

    Let me tell you a 24-70mm is a vacation lense if you prefer taking more portraits. i have a 16-35mm for vacations i can take my portraits and my landscape\travel photography shots. Basically you dont have to carry all your kit at your vacations. these lenses are cool.

  • @SakuraGraffiti
    @SakuraGraffiti 2 года назад +1

    I always felt that the 24-70 was the must-have lens for any system but now that I have one , these days I just use my 50mm more than anything.

    Nothing beats in portability to the Sigma 28-70mm F2.9 DG DN C. Only 470gr and it's tiny compared to that one.

    • @davjeon427
      @davjeon427 2 года назад +1

      Isn't that f2.8 not f2.9? But yes it's also the cheapest as it's now a third of the price of the new Sony GM ii.

    Totally agree on the 24-70, just nothing special about it - sure you can get special images, but not special because of the lens. I will say though that I still keep one just for those times that I feel lazy and only want to carry around a single body+lens. But there's nothing like a 14mm, or an f1.2-1.4 prime, or a real telephoto zoom for that special sauce you can't get with a 24-70.

    Just got to full frame with a a7IV and a sigma art 24-70 and i understand the average at everything . I miss the 85 1.8 i had on an aps c with the nifty fifty from canon for example big time . 24-70 is a swiss knife , nothing more , nothing less .

    • @mrobitwice77
      @mrobitwice77 2 года назад

      I also have the A7iv. Got the 35 gm to start and added the 70-200 2.8 mk2 . I have zero regrets with those two combos. Maybe someday I get the 16-35 but not anytime soon

    I know a 25-70mm lens with constant aperture of 1.2
    It can actually be extended to 135mm (and even 189mm with a trick)
    Sigma 18-35 + Speedboster on a Lumix 😁 It is a 25-50mm which can be optionally cropped to 35-70mm 1.2 with the pixel/pixel readout in 4k and 67-135mm 1.2 in HD (but the noise gets too noticeable in HD)
    Great lens, unfortunately no autofocus is possible
