Cheers!

Great video mate! I'm in the market for a 24mm prime for my Sony A7 III and you pointed out some things which were very helpful for my decision process. Regards from Australia!

That was precisely the goal of the video, so I'm very happy right now! Thanks for the comment!!

Very well done video. I enjoyed watching it. I ended up finding a second hand Tamron 24mm for $149 at mpb so its an amazing value at that price but even at $200 or $250 it would be good

Thanks! Nice deal you got!!

I have a Sigma 24mm f/1.8 ex dg macro which was always one of my favorite lenses especially on full-frame/35mm. Crazy close focus and shallow DOF on a wide angle. Really fun lens and was cheap. Pretty chonky by modern standards.

Great review. The only thing I like about this review is he takes into consideration all other lenses with similar criteria. Which saves a lot of time which I might have to watch ten more videos

@RogerinFinland oh no mate I learned a lot about the lens and what I mentioned above was the difference I saw in your video from other videos I watched before 🙂👌

Very nice video, great information for someone like me who's looking for a "macro" one.

The 35mm and 20mm are also good options depending on what focal length would be more suitable for you.

@@RogerinFinland actually I wanted to use it for digitalized film, I know it's much better a 50mm or 35mm however it's too expensive, so I already got a tube extension for my 50mm. I will get this 20mm for architecture photo 😊😊 thanks!

Tamron makes also a 35mm 2.8 semi macro, exactly in size to the 24 and 20 and the 35 is the cheapest of the bunch. You might want to check it out 👍🏼

They are fairly noisy. I got the 24mm and the 20mm, both make the noises.

The Sigma 24mm 3.5 DG DN Contemporary has just as good close focus to 1:2 as the Tamron, the Sigma cost 559 Euros. I was thinking about getting one of the Tamron Lenses because of the close focus, but I do not like the built quality and I think the diameter of the Tamron Lenses is too large for me. I have the Zeiss Loxia Distagon 21mm 2.8 which I got as a "boxed opened" for under half price. I also have the Sony 24mm 1.4 GM, the Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar 35mm 2.8 ZA which I got used for US$215, the Voigtländer APO-Lanthar 35mm 2.0 Aspherical and I have macro Lenses of 60mm, 65mm, 90mm and 110mm so I think I am full covered 😉

Good for you to have such a collection 😊 The price difference between the Tamron and the alternatives (plus the close focusing distance) makes it very appealing IF that's what you're looking for.

@@RogerinFinland I know the the optical performance of the Tamron 24mm 2.8 is excellent, I just do not like the built quality and the fact that the diameter of the Lens is so large. If Tamron make a second version with better built quality and smaller diameter, I might give it a try.

Would you recommend it for wide angle macro photography on a crop sensor?

On a Sony APS-C (a6400 or similar) it will give you a field of view equivalent to 36mm, and then the 1:2 quasi macro. To me 35mm is the "end of wide and beginning of normal", so I think that the 20mm would be a better option for that. Also, keep in mind that the reproduction ratio is 1:2, and not 1:1 like dedicated macro lenses. That's for you to decide if that's enough for you or you need more magnification.
