As an event pro who also likes to shoot travel and landscape, I find the Tamron 20-40/2.8 extremely versatile. For event work, it pairs perfectly with my Samyang 35-150/2.0-2.8 for a two-camera do-everything kit. It's particularly well-suited to close-up candids on dance floors, and at cocktail hours and conference break-out sessions, where I don't need wider than 20mm but often want tighter framing than most UWA zooms provide. It's also wide enough for room shots. And, for travel it pairs well with Tamron's new 50-300 in a small kit that can be carried on foot all day. Now the caveats. It's not as sharp at 40mm, especially wide open. But, in low-light event work, that's OK with me, as my 35-150 is quite sharp at 35mm and f2.0. And, for landscapes, the 20-40 sharpens up nicely at 40mm when stopped down, which I do anyway for deep focus. So, not perfect (duh!), but with smart compromises that deliver excellent performance for the ways I use it.

I actually just ordered the Tamron 20-40mm f/2.8 after watching reviews for the new Sony 24-50. If it was actually GM2 level optics I probably would have gotten the Sony (but from the reviews, it doesn't seem to be). In general, I think I'll like the 20-40mm range better anyway since I mostly shoot landscape. Plus the Tamron is lighter, smaller, less expensive etc.. should make a nice lens to go hiking in the mountains with. 🙂📷

How's the lens so far? Regarding autofocus reliability and image quality? I also believe 20-40mm is more useful - wish there'd be 20-50mm though. However, the Sony probably has the upper hands in AF? And there's also that nice button for switching to APS-C mode.
@cdavey7654

@@wv5959 Seems good so far, and the af seems decent. Though, like you say the af would probably be at least slightly better with the Sony. A 20-50 would be nice as long as it could be in the same size and weight.. - When I'm hiking 15+ miles in a day, at over 7000ft elevation that becomes fairly important (I'm not as young as I used to be, haha). I actually set a custom button on my camera to access the crop (aps-c) mode. It is nice on my a7RIV body since it still gives a 26MP image, so that helps make the somewhat limited range of 20-40 a bit more usable if one is okay with 26MP.

Ironically the release of the Sony 24-50 might push up the popularity of Tamron's 20-40 lens. When I bought my 20-40 I was looking for an alternative to my Tamron 17-28 f2.8 as I wanted something a bit longer to complement and overlap with the Tamron 28-75 f2.8 so I wouldn't be needing to switch lenses so much. In the end the the 20-40 is a great walkaround lens by itself with maybe a longer prime in the bag if needed. Good video Mark .

I own the Tamron 20-40 and find it a very practical generalist. It's interesting to see the continued widening of standard zooms in the Holy Trinity. Used to be 35-70 was a "walkaround" lens and a 24 or 28 prime was your wideangle. Then 28-75 or so with a 17-35 wide in the film-digital transition, and then 24-70 with a 14-24, and now we're pushing 20-70 with 12-24 on Sony. Big names are still making the 16-35 focal length since that's such a staple of professional kits, but we keep seeing bites getting taken out of the wideangle specialist zoom. Tamron's 17-28 is looking pretty redundant with the 20-40 available and I think something like a 16-50 f4 (fullframe) can't be far off.

Sony 24-50mm would be a fantastic all rounder for video if they made it a bit faster, say f/1.8 - the idea of carrying an equivalent of three primes (24/35/50) in a single lens is quite tempting and it has been done once with the Sigma 18-35mm - which I think Sony was heavily influenced by this particular Sigma lens when thez came up with the 24-50mm (omg I write like a caveman, but you get my point, heh?) 😅

Thank you for the video. Sorry I’m not going to make you stinking rich. I am considering this lens but in no rush since I already own the Sigma 28-70/2.8 DG DN Contemporary and the wider Sigma 16-28/2.8 DG DN to pair with it. Picked up both used for my A7C and now use them on my A7CR and A7CII. I also own the Sony 24-70/2.8 GM II that I use on my A1 and A7RV. Like the size of this new lens though and think is a great replacement if you are carrying around the trinity of small G primes at 24, 40, and 50. I might consider selling of quite a bit and getting the 24-50/2.8 G and pairing it in a three lens kit with the 20/1.8 G and my Zeiss Bats 85/1.8. Admit though that the Batis 25/2, 40/2 CF and 85/1.8 are a great three lens kit. Take care.

It was smart to make this lens, because it gives you 3 popular primes in one, still being compact with fast AF and good MFD, especially for 50mm at 2.8. However, the pricing was not so smart because you can get very good standard zooms or more range for less. If they put this at around 900/950, I would have said it’s still „reasonably“ priced. Tricky if you price an only decent 35/1.8 or other primes so high that you just have to make this mini-zoom a 1299€ deal. 🤯🤣 victims of their own politics. However, it’s just not a good deal, even though the characteristics are about what I would want for my 7R III. Concerning Tamron‘s 20-40: well yes that’s a nice lens in a very good form factor, however it misses my second favourite, the 50mm focal length. 20-24 is a range I just have no use for, so everything below 24 is generally out for me because it’s a dead end. In the end, the best alternative here would be the obvious 28-75 which is nearly half the price of the new Sony G if you are lucky with your timing.

My experience says stick with OEM glass. That's been my rule with Nikon and Canon systems. Now I am working with Sony. Quite a few utubers seem determined to push people toward the third party lenses in this case but I am skeptical,

There are lots of amazing 3rd party glass. Sigma, Tamron and Viltrox make some lenses that are as good as GM lenses in most areas. For myself, I often buy OEM glass for the focal lengths that are my workhorses. But there are tons of focal lengths that I don't use as often - I always buy 3rd party for that. It's a great way to spend less and some of those lenses are every bit as good as my Sony lenses anyway

hmmm, for less you can have a sony 24-105mm F4 with OSS, compared to the 24-50F.28 without.

Why do you even want a zoom, unless you want to shoot birds and that sort? I have only prime lenses and I use a track. never missed a zoom.

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis I gotta say… I tried my ZV-E1 with the 10-18mm F4 and it was lightweight. I put the Sigma 24-70 F2.8 Art back on and it’s freaking huge.

Hate Sigma zoom lenses, they all turn the zoom ring on the wrong way. Out of the game to me.

I would rather have SOny 20-70 F4 lens than this one. I know, it is F4, but for street photography you do not need f2.8. You need more things to get in focus. Low light? I do not worry with Full frame and plus Noise Reduction AI in LightRoom is perfect.

The 20-70 is such a versatile lens, and it is very sharp. Did some tests shooting leaves of my guava tree. The leaves are loaded with detail and the 20-70 did not disappoint. All pictures I took without any shaking were incredible. The detail is GMaster quality. The f4 doesn't bother me. I'm used to shooting with many f4 lenses.

The look of the images (esp bokeh) causes me to describe it as a zoom version of a vintage Carl Zeiss Tessar’s F2.8 (eg the 50mm zebra version).

None of those lenses are actually a good alternative. Tamron 20-40mm is too short, soft at 40mm, bad bokeh. Sigma 24-70mm is very heavy and large. Sigma 28-70mm is not wide enough, quite soft in full focal range. Sony 24-50mm is the best choice for most people, provided the price is acceptable. And none of those alternatives have anywhere as good AF.
