Ive been professionally shooting for 7yrs & my main go to is my 24mm. I do a lot of classic cars, custom Harley’s & tattooed models. I also use it for tattooed sessions & has earned me few publications. My Canon is a 24mp 2000D.

I agree. Ive spent thousands of dollars on lenses for video.....I pulled this thing out because I had to film in a low light situation and was blown away..its sharper than most of my lenses and has a really nice cinematic bokeh will little to no effort. Just looks fantastic. I use it on every shoot now.

I found in this lens my current favorite one. I like better longer focal, my best looking lens is a 135mm, but this 24mm is my best one overall. This lens feels like a counterpart of the kit lens, 24mm does pretty much the same as a zoom but in a fixed lens. Sure, the kit lens goes closer, wider, change at any time, get the normal flat feeling and great wide distortion, but the 24mm/38mm due to crop factor, falls into that unique sweet spot where does anything, wide and close at the same time, focus less closer than 55mm, but achieve a 2.8 rather a 5.6, it still has distortion and because of that you can get a little of the "panoramic wide style" of a truly wide lens, but because it still emphasize, helping it's 2.8, you get those nice portrait shoots, with a different nice feeling than the always looking 50-85mm. All that stuff put into the lightest and smallest autofocus lens you could ever attach to a canon aps-c. I'm experienced, I worry about my money, took me like 5 years to choose it but once I found out what is made of, I'm more than happy.

@druszaj 9 ай бұрын

I've heard the "focal length of the human eye" thing mentioned over the years in a number of different ways and learned human vision is pretty complicated. We've got a central spot of sharp vision (fovial) that our eye kind of "jitters" and our brain combines into sharp images at a narrow angle of view. Then we've got the length you're describing, 24mm (basically between 35mm-43mm on full frame), which is what a human eye can comfortably see as it scans a scene without a person moving their head. I found that 100mm full-frame most closely approximates what my eye/brain sees when composing still photography. 20-28mm (full frame) is like what a human can comfortably see moving both their head and eyes but standing still. Then wider than that they're going to be moving their shoulders/feet too.

@AnneliesVeldman 2 жыл бұрын

I truly wish they made this lens for the RF camera mount, because now I learned since it is a EF-S lens, there is a crop factor with the EF to RF adapter! so it's not a true 24mm on my R5, but I still gravitate towards it and love it! I'll have to check out the 55-250 👍🏼

24mm equivalent 38mm on full frame: 24 x 1,6 crop factor = 38mm - 50mm x 1,6 crop factor = 80mm on full frame which then becomes a perfect lens for portraits mounted on APS-c. I have both 24 and 50, but on the 7D I have the 24 which I hardly ever take off. I mount the 18-200 only in the case of nature or sports photography. Hello, greetings from Italy.

On a crop censor camera the 24mm is equal to 38mm. I have a 40mm pancake lens which translate to a 64mm and I use this all the time, great for street photography and it is awesome for portrait work, the bonus here is that it cost less than the 24mm by $20 to $30 ...... The 50mm f1.8 works out to be a 80mm pretty much the best focal length for portraits and you cant be the 1.8 for low light situations. If you shop around you can probably get all three for around $400 and you would be covered for every situation except telephoto situations.

If i could bothering you with a couple of questions about this lens or a similar lens, if you look in some of my most recent videos where i fixing a guitar on a bench and i have my iphone and using it´s front camera, the quality is very poor i would say, how ever, i have a Canon 80D with a kit lens 18-55mm but it´s not really good for inside video because it will not let enough much light in and it will be distorted and it´s impossible to get up that close with the camera that i need if i am about to have the camera on the same bench as the guitar i am fixing. My thoughts go like this, what if i could find a lens that is about 15-25mm with a zoom so that i can just put my fingers on the lens and zoom if i cant to show something very close, but also a lens that let in quite alot more light than the 18-55mm kit lens, f/1,4 or f/2.8 would maybe work ?? Ohh and the price should be not to high as well.. thank you very much.. :D

I would suggest looking and seeing if your local camera shop does rentals on this lens, so you can test it out! Typically a rental wouldnt be too expensive and then you would know if it would fit with your particular set up! but my guess is that it would work out pretty well!

Hi there! I did actually show a couple of seconds of the lens at :18 mark, but I understand how that might not be as much as you were looking for. Just to give you some insight on my process, as I mentioned in the beginning of the video, this review was filmed on this lens, along with B-Roll filmed using this lens. For my review, the thing that was the most important for me to showcase was how footage from the lens looks, versus how the lens looks physically. With the lens being the one I used while filming, I wasn't able to show it during my A Roll/talking head bits. I wanted to prioritize this video being shot on the 24mm versus showing the 24mm, because when I seek out reviews, I typically want to see how the lens works and performs, first and foremost. I will keep your comment in mind with my future reviews to try to show more clips of the product! I think there is a sweet spot I can find for my future reviews of showing clips of the product while also showing how it works. Thanks so much for your kind feedback, I'm always looking to improve! :)
