    This lens is amazing! 20-70mm focal range is quite perfect for general daily use. I can see this lens being a great back up lens for wedding photographers as well. F4 is good enough for most well lit situations. And having a 20-70 range can cover group photos as well. F4 would struggle at low light situation but thats why we carry prime lenses to go to work! Another great review Julia!
    My journey toward a wedding photographer started with watching your channel a year ago. I want to say thank you for making all these videos. I hope you and Dan will have an amazing 2023 years ahead! (Also, 35mm is also my favourite focal range😊)

      Thank you and I agree! Not everyone needs f2.8 lenses as they don't work in low light or just never shoot at those wide open apertures. Weddings are a good example, travel/landscape photography is another one I could see this lens getting used a lot for.

      Julia, I have the Sony A74 as well, and the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM that I use a lot. I don't do the portrait/fashion stuff and do mostly travel videos/photos. I have the Sony 50mm F1.44 GM on order but have been thinking about getting a zoom for more versatility and still a lightweight travel kit instead. I like the idea of a walkaround zoom and then a fast prime for low-light situations. With the Sony A74 and the focus breathing compensation, I want to stay with the Sony lenses that work with it. I have always liked the look of the 50mm (1.2 GM was always out of reach price-wise), similar to how you love the 35mm! However, I am trying to decide on this zoom and the 24mm or this zoom and the new 50mm. What would be the deciding factors for you if you wanted to put together a kit like this for travel photos and videos? Don't know if this matters as well, but I also have the Sony FX30 (aps-c cinema camera) so any/all of these lenses could be used there as well.

    Julia, you could sell snow to an Inuit! You make every lens you review shine with your amazing camera work but I bought the Tamron 20-40 f2.8 instead and am not unhappy with my decision.

      but the f/4 aperture is crippling as soon as the natural lighting fades.. so it's a very important factor and a reason why this lens won't hit as hard as it could

    • @juliatrotti
      @juliatrotti  Год назад +2

      Thank you! I agree, not everyone needs an f2.8 zoom lens so to me this being an f4 is not a huge deal. For wedding photography this f4 zoom can be super handy for the majority of the day, then switch to a prime for the low light stuff. Travelling/landscape photography as well!

    • @aroran412
      @aroran412 Год назад +1

      Plus some of us use a flash during low light situations. My 24-105 is my go to lens for a lot of shoots but I would prefer a lighter lens. The Tamron 28-200 was versatile but I missed the sharpness of the 24-105. Looks like the 20-70 maybe sharper than the 24-105 and definitely lighter. Very intriguing!! Thanks for the super review.
