Annyeonghaseyo from South Korea!! Had a lot of fun making this video, hope you guys enjoy it too! More SEOUL-ful videos coming soon! 😆 24mm f/2.8 BH: geni.us/PYmVTz 40mm f/2.5 BH: geni.us/naf6z 50mm f/2.5 BH: geni.us/WTx1y
How good are the 24mm lens for landscape photography for high resolution cameras when you want to print very large pro quality prints ? I have the Sony 24mm 1.4 GM, but I also want a more compat and lightweight 24mm lens.
Honestly these lenses are great but I still think for almost everyone, the value point is still with the f1.8 normal primes sony makes. The 35 and 85 are light and compact for their fast aperture and if you're wanting to be a bit more serious you've got the 55 zeiss which is an absolute beast of a lens and a favourite lens for casuals and pros alike. Imo the G badge and aperture ring don't justify the price for slower primes. But these may be perfect street lenses especially if you're planning to do a lot of photography in the rain since these are really well weather sealed, smaller than the f1.8 primes and built well.
와우~~ Are you in Korea now? I didn't expect to see you in Korea.😍😍😍 I wonder how long you are in Korea I wish I had a chance to meet you in person I hope the trip to Korea will remain a good memory.😍😍😍
GO to Jeju! If you are in Korea, definitely go to Jeju Island and take a short ferry to a tiny island called Udo island. You won't be sorry you made the trip. Its a really beautiful natural place in Korea.
I got the 50mm a few days ago and have tested the focus on objects. It's ok. Not stellar. But when I added an extension tube on it, it was pretty dang great at close up object focusing. I'm using it for a music video shoot soon. Hoping it performs well for eye auto focus tracking.
Absolutely agree with your reasoning ,Jason, I did pick up a the 50 G "used" on a whim but I don't love it any more than my cheapo 50`.8 or the superlative 55 Zony lens. I may pick up the 24G though to have a lightweight wide for my beloved A7C. Smaller is stealthier!
I just ordered a used 50 f2.5G lens for a good price to try out on my A7C. Somehow I convinced myself that it was a good thing to do even though I already own both the 55 Zeiss and the 50 f1.8 . Guess i will be able to do my own comparison tests.ha,ha! Seriously, it was the build quality with the aperture ring and the focus hold button all in a compact package that convinced me to order it. I had been considering the 40G but suspect that the 35f1.8 which I already own and love is really the better fit. I think that the 20 f1.8 G might be the better wide angle to get eventually than the 24 f2.5G Very entertaining and instructive ( and honest) review, Jason and Vivian!
I was confused as to why Sony is releasing the 50mm f/2.5 when the f/1.8 is so much cheaper, but glad you showed why. My f/1.8 whilst cheap and decent for photos, is horrible for video due to slow focusing & loud focus motor! This just looks to be a high quality compact version!
Nice video, the sharpness is ridiculous!!! Love the compactness of the set! That is one of the reasons why I went FUJI. All my lenses are compact and sharp enough (not "Gee Gee Gee" sharp).
Thanks for the video!!! I'm gonna get the 50mm and am so excited about it. I have the 85mm but need something in the 50mm range. All the photos you took and showed were amazing!
When I pack for travelling I have such a hard time choosing between the 20mm + 28-75 or the 20mm 1.8 + 35mm 1.8 + 85mm 1.8 (my absolute favourites but in some cases the zoom is more convenient than the wider aperture until it gets to low light!) - I think for personal stuff I just need to trust pushing the ISO with the zoom when needed as 2.8 is still great and useable in most cases :) the 85 is just SO sharp when I do use it, and the 35mm is my go to walk around lens usually. The total weight is roughly the same, but the primes are lighter on the camera individually.
The choice of a 40 and 50 together are definitely odd to me. Those focal lengths are a bit too close to want both imo. Instead a 50, I would have offered a 65 ish lens. Maybe even a 70? That way one might want all three. Other than that I'm loving this new smaller sized trend that's been recently occurring!
Holy crap! I am a big fan of you and visited my country! Welcome! I already have Sony FE 24mm 1.4GM, however I really want that lens because of the compactness.
I don't use my sony gear for video...but...its 2024 and I still use a pair of A7c bodies along with an even older original A7s body for that sometimes darker local...the Sony compact lenses are great but I mostly use the "modified for full frame" Sigma Art DN 19...30...and 60 f2.8 glass.( all three bought used together for less than $200 here in Bangkok). ..along with my venerable FE 70-200/4 ..next I will soon be be buying a used Sony Fe 200-600/ 5.6/6.3 lens... (when a used one becomes available here in Bangkok). Cheers!
Yes but if you got 24-70 2.8 gm don’t you think it is a better buy? 2.5-2.8 are not such a big difference and you will get till 70mm. Well I am not sure about those new prime lenses.
very excited that you reviewed this trio, I'm currently looking to upgrade to either the A7C or waiting for the A7iv... but these lenses seem great for hybrid shooting and travel... since I travel a lot for work. thanks, brother. glad you and the lady got to enjoy South Korea.
안녕하세요 저는 한국에서 활동중인 사진작가 이이 입니다 : ) 한국의 멋진 풍경을 담아 주셔서 정말 감사합니다! Hello, I'm Lee Lee, a photographer who is active in Korea. Thank you so much for capturing the wonderful scenery of Korea!
Hi Jason, I have a very silly question for you. I have the 40mm lens and love it very much, particularly how sharp it is. I have it paired with my A7RV and love all the detail it can capture. But there is a part of me that wonders is the 35 mm GM significantly sharper? I know that is both bright brighter and has fewer optical flaws, but is it also significantly sharper? Sharpness is my number one priority. Appreciate any and all detailed feedback you might be able to give. Regardless, thank you for your incredible content.
I can't wait to get my hands on that 40mm! I was going to travel to South Korea and Thailand but there's a 14 day quarantine even if you're vaccinated or negative so I opted for Panama. Hopefully the 40mm is out by next week so I can take it with me haha
Hey what would be best for landscape photography like waterfalls out of these three and just great still shots? Would really appreciate your opinion!! Love you videos btw superb tbh!
Great review Jason. Thanks for being so thorough. I feel like these lens make a ton of sense from Sony and the A7c. But the Zeiss 55 1.8 and Sony 35 1.8 are still superior.
Currently I own the 35mm and 85mm 1.8, would love to add the 20mm 1.8G to the mix but not gonna lie that 24mm does look like a nice deal compared to the 20... But 35 and 24 are pretty similar... decisions, decisions... haha
Jason what’s better in your opinion, the Sony G 40mm f2.5 or the Batis? I can’t find any image comparisons between the two. I loved the Batis when I rented it but for the money the Sony is really tempting. Thoughts?
This video is a great surprise! I usually watch just for product reviews. I live in Brisbane, Australia, but I lived in Seoul for 3 years and my wife is from there. I miss the place. It's interesting that you have gone there during Covid. Here in Australia, there are virtually no flights out - and the ones that exist are prohibitively expensive. There are very few people coming to Australia, but life goes on as normal in our "closed" country. It's weird, and it's also weird to see Gwanghwamun area and downtown Seoul so deserted. Tourism and international education has collapsed, but we have been effectively covid free since August. Anyway, well done! I am keen to see some more video/touristy footage!
I was in Myeongdong for the first time a couple days ago and despite never been there before covid, I definitely felt the eerie emptiness of the area. I am planning on going back to do some videos of the empty streets.
@@JasonVong yeah, wow. Myeongdong was always crazy. You felt like a sheep being herded. And overpriced, very touristy. Dongdaemun is my favourite. You've got the Cheonghechong creek, then the Hyunginjimun gate and a nice tourist walk along the fortification wall to a small lookout. There is a toys and collectibles shopping area hidden in the back streets near the gate (if you are into that kind of thing). Have fun! I envy you.
good review :) and id agree with you that the 24 and 85 is a sick combi! with my favourite lens being the 24GM, I really want to get a 24, 35 and 85 lens combination! I don't think I am getting the 24G, but I love how sony is going all compact for their lenses and cameras :) I own a tamron 17-28 so i dont know if the 24 2.8 is going to help me or not, so i guess im still going to save up for the GM.
Jason was looking at upgrading the the 50mm 2.5. I currently have the sony 50mm 1.8 and was wondering if it’s worth the upgrade? Only shoot photo’s, no video. Looking to put together a 2 lens setup. Like your idea of the 24 and the 85mm. 2nd question, would you recommend the sony 85mm 1.8?
Love your videos.. just got this camera! And im a beginner with dslr cams.. what will be a good starting lens? Hopefully nothing that breaks my bank account hehehe. Always love a bokeh effect. Thanks
Thanks for the video, it's an interesting bag of thoughts one has to deal with regarding the lenses. I've been looking for a 40mm, 45mm-ish lens and so far have struggled to make up my mind. This might swing it, or not! Interesting focus breathing @7:30.
Hi Jason. I love your videos. I’m a food photographer and videographer. I have the Sony a7sii and the 24-70 g master lens. I’m ready to buy a new lens. I have a stabilizer but the 24-70 is too big I’m finding for any of the stabilizer I have used. For my next lens, for food photography and video what do you recommend for me that can be used on a stabilizer. I noticed that you like to recommend lenses with a lot of diversity. I like the idea of doing a really nice close-up shots of food. Can you give me some ideas of what my next land should be? Thank you in advance
@@JasonVong If you would recommend 2 focal ranges for everyday shooting on an a7c from laowa 9mm (12mm aps-c is too heavy) to sony or samyang 85mm f1.8, which would you choose, if i don't like too zoomed in portraits? i want to carry them in a peak design 6 liter sling, and would have a 20 liter backpack for maybe a dji mavic and for a wildlife lens like 70-350mm, i can't decide which size and and focal range lenses should i buy, if i shooting real estate, like portraits rendaring from 24-55mm 85 is too much for me, but maybe even 55mm, i don't know love shooting wildlife, so the 70-350 because it's faster than the ff 70-300 and lighter smaller and has 75mm extra reach in aps-c mode, - lens would be a great addition to my pocket wildlife everyday shooter, the rx100vii. :D what do you think, the a7c hasn't got enough megapixels for aps-c mode and also photography? Should buy a more expensive more megapixel ff lens, than i either have the option of lower 18mm from24 using a7r3a in aps-c mode or a1 with 22megapixels, a7rvi is not fast enough and has poure low light quality, and sometimes i would like to shoot birds cats things like that in afternoon or sunset, which the rx100vii would not keep up with. :D What's your opinion Jason? I'm open about bad opinon too, please tell the truth :) Greetings from Hungary! :)
What do u think about the kit lense. All I want in my photography is a blurry background. However I am in budget so the other lenses would cost me higher
most dont realise is these are made to compete with fujifilm set up. this will have roughly the same DOF of equivalent fujicron. Hence the more vintage design, and compact nature. Fun fact, A7c and these pancake is smaller than fujifilm equivalent
I will have a7cii. I am travel videocore type,not like vlogging. So wide angle like 16-20-24 i am looking for. Cant buy GM 16-35. Planning to have this 20mm and sony 50mm. As i have 4k60 crop so 20 will work like and 50 will do like 75(close to 85). I dont use gimbal. All handheld. Lately i have been thinking about another option- save all money and get a 24-70 f4. Cam you help me for a best deal?
thanks for your review, would you do a comparison bewteen zeiss 55f1.8 vs 50 f2.5 I really like the image quality of 55f1.8 but as you said the manual focus on video is not good. So i am wondering is it worth to trade 55f1.8 for 50f2.5 Haha
I'm happy to see that Sony is releasing some quality, intermediate level primes but I would much prefer to see a 24-50 2.8 zoom G lens over this trio. That would be an excellent upgrade over the A7c kit. Your lens recommendations were spot on at the end. I really appreciate that your videos are always positive, fun, AND honest. Thanks Jason, enjoy your trip!
It almost makes more sense for them to have made the series go 24mm, 50mm, 85mm. Like can you imagine a nice compact 85mm G lens? That woulda been so cool!

these are very tempting given their sizes BUT they will never replace my 35mm GM 1.4 as walk around lens. Great review and great place to visit
Long time Korean subscriber passing by
Zeiss Batis 40mm f2 is probably one of my favorite lenses.
still one of mine too!
mine too, it's 35mm and 50mm in one lens!
Close Focus capability is a bonus
Is it as compact as this?
Mine too, and I foolishly sold it...terrible mistake.
@@AJCoReTV not even close. The 40mm batis is twice as long and much fatter.
Definitely excited about that 24! Having a Sigma 35, there are many occasions where I need JUST a little more room (and serious weight reduction!)
I was in Gyeongbokgung palace 2 days ago!! :) hope you enjoy Korea!!
super lucky the sun came out a few times, really brightened the place up!!

For traveling purpose, if I already have 24GM. Which one that I should select for the next one between 40 and 50?
40mm Zeiss Batis or this G len for general and street?
I love the 24 f2.8 mm lens.It seems sharper than the 40 and 50 mm lenses.
Great looking pics! Those lenses look so little and sharp! And I am loving that pink hair!!! 💖
A tough sell when I have the Zeiss 55mm 1.8 and the 20mm 1.8 G.
Highly recommend Tongyeong. Not too far from Busan and beautiful island shots
I love the fact that they're so affordable too! I can't wait to get my hands on the 24mm
almost 600$ per each doesn't seem sooo affordable.
@@OUCGN compared to the master ones thats 600 bucks more ? It’s definitely affordable.
Yes but if you got 24-70 2.8 gm don’t you think it is a better buy? 2.5-2.8 are not such a big difference and you will get till 70mm. Well I am not sure about those new prime lenses.
The 50mm 1.8 is amazing lens! Especially for the $$ used more for photos over video for sure
Bingo! Exactly what I was thinking.
Thanks for mentioning the Zeiss 55 1.8 near the end. Was wondering how that would compare to the 50 2.5. Great comparisons and locations!

Hello, I'm Lee Lee, a photographer who is active in Korea. Thank you so much for capturing the wonderful scenery of Korea!
Agree with all that you say except I do not recommend the Zeiss 50 or 55. The autofocus and image quality do not compare to the new lenses at all.

Hey, what do you think, which one is better - sony 24mm/2,8 vs tamron 24/mm/2,8?
Great vids as always!
Could you make a comparison video between 55 1.8 Zeiss and new 50 1.2 G-master? 🙂
I would love to see that!
Hey what would be best for landscape photography like waterfalls out of these three and just great still shots? Would really appreciate your opinion!! Love you videos btw superb tbh!

Sounds like you wouldn't quite be happy with the 24...you know what to do - get the one you REALLY want!
Great overview! How do you feel about the A7C these days?
Would you recommend these if one already has the zeiss 35mm f2.8?
Like the compact looks of the set up.
i'd rather take a 2.8 zoom then all those primes. i love all the available choices tho!
welcome to korea! enjoy ur time here and hope to see some more korea content soon!
Does the degree of focus have an impact on purple fringing? The 24mm was in perfect focus, while the 40mm was slightly out of focus.
Jason what’s better in your opinion, the Sony G 40mm f2.5 or the Batis? I can’t find any image comparisons between the two. I loved the Batis when I rented it but for the money the Sony is really tempting. Thoughts?
Im curious how that 24mm 2.8 G compares to the 20mm 1.8 G
This video is a great surprise! I usually watch just for product reviews. I live in Brisbane, Australia, but I lived in Seoul for 3 years and my wife is from there. I miss the place. It's interesting that you have gone there during Covid. Here in Australia, there are virtually no flights out - and the ones that exist are prohibitively expensive. There are very few people coming to Australia, but life goes on as normal in our "closed" country. It's weird, and it's also weird to see Gwanghwamun area and downtown Seoul so deserted.

I would love to get the 40mm.
Pretty much perfect.
good review :) and id agree with you that the 24 and 85 is a sick combi!
with my favourite lens being the 24GM, I really want to get a 24, 35 and 85 lens combination!
I don't think I am getting the 24G, but I love how sony is going all compact for their lenses and cameras :)
I own a tamron 17-28 so i dont know if the 24 2.8 is going to help me or not, so i guess im still going to save up for the GM.
For travel in my opinion its better to just bring a 24-70 2.8 sigma. Nice video tho.
I would rather save the money and just get 1 lens. The 24-70 if I am travelling that seems much more convenient and flexible for unplanned moments.
Jason was looking at upgrading the the 50mm 2.5. I currently have the sony 50mm 1.8 and was wondering if it’s worth the upgrade? Only shoot photo’s, no video. Looking to put together a 2 lens setup. Like your idea of the 24 and the 85mm. 2nd question, would you recommend the sony 85mm 1.8?
Great to see you out of quarantine and enjoying photography!

@@JasonVong If you would recommend 2 focal ranges for everyday shooting on an a7c from laowa 9mm (12mm aps-c is too heavy) to sony or samyang 85mm f1.8, which would you choose, if i don't like too zoomed in portraits? i want to carry them in a peak design 6 liter sling, and would have a 20 liter backpack for maybe a dji mavic and for a wildlife lens like 70-350mm, i can't decide which size and and focal range lenses should i buy, if i shooting real estate, like portraits rendaring from 24-55mm 85 is too much for me, but maybe even 55mm, i don't know love shooting wildlife, so the 70-350 because it's faster than the ff 70-300 and lighter smaller and has 75mm extra reach in aps-c mode, - lens would be a great addition to my pocket wildlife everyday shooter, the rx100vii. :D what do you think, the a7c hasn't got enough megapixels for aps-c mode and also photography? Should buy a more expensive more megapixel ff lens, than i either have the option of lower 18mm from24 using a7r3a in aps-c mode or a1 with 22megapixels, a7rvi is not fast enough and has poure low light quality, and sometimes i would like to shoot birds cats things like that in afternoon or sunset, which the rx100vii would not keep up with. :D What's your opinion Jason? I'm open about bad opinon too, please tell the truth :) Greetings from Hungary! :)
Awesome work Jason. How do these lenses compare with Sigma's recently released Contemporary F2 lenses for Sony e mount?
Thank you so much for this thorough review!
So i won the A7C from adorama and im about to purchase the tamron 20mm 2.8 then seen sony came out with these but haven’t seen any comparisons
Hey Jason! Will you review the sigma 28-70mm 2.8?
Would like to hear your opinion and a comparison with the tamron 28-75mm 2.8. 😁
i’m such a sucker for lenses with aperture rings
OMG!!!!!!! Did you come to Seoul? Welcome aboard Jason!!!
Please please please Jason compare those lenses with Sigma I-series
Thanks a lot for this video review of all three of these lenses Jason!!! I can always trust your videos with your knowledge!!!
What do u think about the kit lense. All I want in my photography is a blurry background. However I am in budget so the other lenses would cost me higher
Like I want a 24-70mm but I wouldn’t mind just a prime 24mm. But I’m starting to see where I can use the zoom over a prime
most dont realise is these are made to compete with fujifilm set up. this will have roughly the same DOF of equivalent fujicron. Hence the more vintage design, and compact nature. Fun fact, A7c and these pancake is smaller than fujifilm equivalent
Thank you Jason.
Welcome !!! Jason ^^ 😀😃😄
Really like how you explain the information.
I have fe 28f2, never try 24 yet. Travelling I use 1635 & 55
Bonjour monsieur est-ce que Lens 24 mm f2.8 est bien ou pas vidéo photos ??
한국에 오신것을 환용합니다! Welcome to KOREA!
Would the 24mm work well on a apsc. Looking for a nice portable 35mm with good image quality.
Finally modern quality small lenses for mirrorless BUT I still want a Leica...
These look super dope especially for traveling and keeping it light. How do they do in low light?
Perfectly fine. Adequate is the best word to use! I should’ve shared more of my low light landscape shoot. I will post them on IG
@@JasonVong awesome thanks dude.
I will have a7cii. I am travel videocore type,not like vlogging. So wide angle like 16-20-24 i am looking for. Cant buy GM 16-35. Planning to have this 20mm and sony 50mm. As i have 4k60 crop so 20 will work like and 50 will do like 75(close to 85).
I dont use gimbal. All handheld. Lately i have been thinking about another option- save all money and get a 24-70 f4.
Cam you help me for a best deal?
I would suggest the Samyang 24mm 1.8 instead, sharper and cheaper.
I love Sony, have an a6500 and an a7iii with a few lenses for both, from the 50 1.8 to the 135 1.8 and I find those lenses really expensive for 2.8
thanks for your review, would you do a comparison bewteen zeiss 55f1.8 vs 50 f2.5
I really like the image quality of 55f1.8 but as you said the manual focus on video is not good. So i am wondering is it worth to trade 55f1.8 for 50f2.5
Haha
Bro! Absolutely not - that 55 1.8 is legendary
I'm happy to see that Sony is releasing some quality, intermediate level primes but I would much prefer to see a 24-50 2.8 zoom G lens over this trio. That would be an excellent upgrade over the A7c kit.
Your lens recommendations were spot on at the end. I really appreciate that your videos are always positive, fun, AND honest. Thanks Jason, enjoy your trip!
Love the video! Great insight for people who are looking to buy their first lens
Excellent review, appreciate the sample shots and the descriptions, very well done. Thank you for doing these videos!
I wish they made them 1.8 or 2.0 at least. But they're still pretty cool.
That’d make them bigger and the whole point of this line is to keep them small.
@@mavfan1 they can do it.
It almost makes more sense for them to have made the series go 24mm, 50mm, 85mm. Like can you imagine a nice compact 85mm G lens? That woulda been so cool!
I have zeiss 35 2.8, 50 g 2.5 y 85 1.8. Nice combo!!!
What are your thoughts about the Sigma i lenses (like 35mm f2 and 65mm f2) compared to these?
