24mm fans DEFINITELY appreciate Sigma providing G Master levels of performance for hundreds less. These photos are overall performance are fantastic.
I agree.
Sony 24mm 1.4 GM performs better optically !
@@cameraprepper7938 It's also drastically more expensive. The other 24mm options prior to this one all had one glaring issue or another. This one is 90% of the 24mm GM for nearly half the price.
@@RicochetForce But the Sigma are no where near the Sony ! If you buy a Lens with aperture 1.4 you should expect it to perform very good at 1.4, you have to use aperture 4.0 to 5.6 to come close to the performance of the Sony Lens, so if you want a cheap Lens, get a 2.0 or 2.8 Lens, fx the Tamron 24mm 2.8. The Sigma do not reach 90% of the Sony ! I have the Sony 24mm 1.4 GM and I can very highly recommend it.
@@cameraprepper7938 I'm not going to recommend a $1400 lens to anyone but a photographer running a business. I'm sorry.
Part of the reason why people love Sigma is that they get enthusiasts and hobbyists pro-level image quality much of the time for much less money.
love the video. helped me decided picking up this lens vs the 20mm 1.4
Thanks for the nice feedback.
Thanks for the great review. This lens is a great option for me. My 24-70GM2 is a workhorse, but for the relatively few times when f2.8 just isn't bright enough this lens provides a viable wide aperture option to the 24/1.4GM without breaking the bank. What really surprises me is that Sigma is still selling the 24/1.4 DG HSM model for $100 more than this one. Even if they have a warehouse full of them, I can't imagine anyone paying $100 more for a heavier lens with fewer features and no better performance optically. It's a mystery.
That's for sure. The DN versions have offered nice improvements over the older ART series.
Just bought this lens and it lives on my A7III. It's become my favorite lens. excellent build quality, fantastic image quality. And if you stick a 10mm extension tube on it, you can get really nice macro shots.
Definitely a nice lens.
@@DustinAbbottTWI One other "feature" of a 24mm f/1.4 lens, is that when you mount it on an APS-C body, you get a 36mm f/2.1 equivalent. One lens covering two common focal lengths well.
@@careylymanjonesyou can change the settings on sony's full frame cameras to do apsc pictures.
so you actually have both full frame and apsc in one body
Excellent review as usual.
Thank you very much.
Have watched so many of your reviews its ridiculous. Fantastic work and grazie mille!!!
Glad you like them!
As always an excellent review Dustin. Now, if Sigma would only apply their creative juices to Fuji GFX and Hassy XCD mounts they would not only up their credibility but what a market share grab. Imagine Zeiss Otus quality which fully covered medium format.
Sigma has started to work on Fuji X-mount, so perhaps there's some possibility of GFX in the future. There's a few of their past lenses (the 40mm F1.4 ART comes to mind) that I believe already covers the GFX sensor.
The third party lens manufacturers have stepped up their game and now manufacturing truly deluxe lenses. The 24 MM F1.4 DN Art lens is a perfect example of that excellence. Thank you for the detailed review, always appreciated.
Agreed.
I would love to see the Comparison side by side between Sigma24,20 vs Sony24,20. Still have not found any on youtube in term of image quality and Astro image quality in particular.
This would help a lot for people who have already owned Sony 24,20 and might want to trade for Sigma.
I appreciate that, but unfortunately I don't have any of those lenses on hand right now.

Thank you Dustin for this great review. I think GM lenses only real advantage comes in for their support for 30fps and breathing compensation (for now)
That's fair.
I love the 24-70 f2.8 Art and recently added the 85mm f1.4 for family portraits and couldn’t resist the 24mm f1.4 for indoor, low light photography.
Nice lenses, for sure.
If I am satisfied with shooting f1.8 and smaller, how does this lens compare with Samyang 24mm f1.8? Any opinion? Thanks.
Great question!!!
Great video, even your advertising is top notch, stay classy.
Thank you very much.
hello,nice review,if you should shose zeeis batiss 25mm f2..with sigma 24. f1.4,,who would recomend for landscapes in daylight and in. nightcenes in city wit al lot of ligts pole and to get most sharp stars from it.
I would lean towards the Sigma. It's stronger optically and has more modern autofocus and features.
Sigma DN Art baby...Home run after home run. Just get the damn full frame foveon camera out!
I’ve never yet enjoyed any Sigma camera as well as their lenses, but here’s hoping.
It just seems a pity that Sigma is not making these lens available for a broader church of mounts. Presumably, it has sound reasons.
Sigma is releasing it for L-mount because Sigma itself is part of the L-mount alliance, and also releasing it on the only open mount that accepts FF, the E-mount.
If you want Sigma to release it for RF and Z mounts, then you want to contact Canon and Nikon and ask them to open their mount. Sigma is not the one to blame.
@@youuuuuuuuuuutube Canon and Nikon open their mount LOL ... ROFL...🤣
Comments below are correct. This isn't from lack of desire from Sigma, or Tamron, etc... Not having those platforms available actually costs them potential return on their lens design, as it is relatively inexpensive to have multiple mounts (which they've always done in the past). Canon and Nikon are to blame here.
@@GregorMima Commentary noted. Perhaps with time, the 2 major players will open the door to Sigma. The lens cost for the new ff mirroless bodies from both Canon and Nikon must surely be slowing the migration as e.g. the cost of the Canon RF L series glass is a more than a little eye watering.
Dustin, I can't not MUCH wonder (!) what the experiment could have shown to replicate each of You photos (+people distortions near borders) with the DN 21mm AND crop in post processing to match exactly the framing of the 24mm. What about the bokeh (both f1.4!), distortion and sharpness (without the complications of what respective sensors) !
(I really do wonder. Not just for the sake of theory.)
Also 'BTW' : Why not envisage innovate and complete your testchart photos with refocus on far-midframe (yes I know: extra work) : Field curvature, especially wide open, should not disqualify merits. After all wide open we rarely focus in the middle !
(How/where do You focus for your testcharts presently?)
THANKS !
As for your final question, I focus in the middle of the chart. I do refocus in the corners if I find corner performance really poor to see if focus is the problem. In this case, the corner performance I saw matched what the MTF charts suggest.
@@DustinAbbottTWI ? At f1.4, Where (are) the-near-corner sharper if focused there?
Sorry but that this is the only thing that will make 'applicable sens' to "me" - and is plain forward compréhensible to anyone as .. as me - lol.
@@DustinAbbottTWI No thoughts to share to my first feedback ?
Appears to be a little worse than 24gm optically, also heavier. You can easily find 24gm at $1000 or below in good or mint condition in Facebook marketplace, so I don't recommend this one, unless you have to buy new.
A very little worse in the corners, but not anywhere else. And yes, it is heavier, but by 60g, which is not significant.
@@DustinAbbottTWI yea, my whole point is if someone can get a good condition 24gm at or below $1000(which is easy in the US), get the 24gm.
Found an open box Sony 24mm GM from adorama. Has the full new Sony warranty and came pretty much new in the box for $1099!
The Sigma 24mm 1.4 DN Art performs optically a bit better than the Sigma 24mm 1.4 HSM Art, but the Sony 24mm 1.4 GM are better than bot of Sigma´s 24mm Lenses, The Sony are also a bit more compact and light than Sigma. I only want the very best for high megapixels Cameras to get most details as possible from a wide angle Lens.
It is definitely smaller, but the new Sigma is within a percentage point or two of the GM optically. You would be very hard pressed to see the difference.
@@DustinAbbottTWI On a 60+ megapixel Camera the Sony are far ahead at aperture 1.4 ! It will be stupid to buy the Sigma 35 1.4 and not have the best performance at 1.4, if you do not need 1.4, then there are plenty of other very good 35mm E-mount Lenses. I prefer the Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 35mm 2.0 Aspherical !
If i go full frame , Sony will get my money for the camera with sigma lenes
The Sony platform is very attractive right now because of such amazing third party support.
@@DustinAbbottTWI im holding on to aps-c as long as I can.
Same here! Also sticking with APS-C until after the end...!
siGMa is the G Master for me!
LOL
