Pros: Extremely Small Size and Weight: It is incredibly compact and lightweight, making it ideal for travel, street photography and for those who want a discreet and space-saving setup. It balances perfectly on compact camera bodies. Impressive Sharpness: It offers excellent sharpness in the center already at f/2.8, which is further improved by aperture. It's surprisingly sharp for its size. Premium Build Quality: Despite being lightweight, the metal construction is solid and weatherproof. It has an iris ring with click/de-click switch, which is very popular for photos and videos. Fast and Quiet Autofocus: Equipped with two linear motors, the AF is lightning fast, accurate, and virtually inaudible, ideal for video and situations where you don't want to disturb. Versatility of the Wide Angle: The 24mm is a very versatile focal length for landscapes, architecture, street photography, but also for weddings, capturing the atmosphere and wide contexts. Reasonable Price: Positioned at an affordable price for a G lens, it offers great value for money.

Cons: f/2.8 Maximum Aperture: While acceptable for most daylight situations, f/2.8 is not ideal for low-light conditions (e.g. indoor receptions, dark church) where an f/1.8 or f/1.4 would make a noticeable difference in terms of light collection and bokeh. Bokeh (Blurred): Due to the f/2.8 aperture and wide-angle nature, the bokeh is less pronounced and creamy than brighter lenses. If super blurry bokeh is a priority, this could be a limitation. Vignetting: It features fairly noticeable vignetting at f/2.8, although easily correctable in post-production. Chromatic Aberrations: Although generally well controlled, some aberrations may be noted in high-contrast situations.

Opinion: The Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G is a lens that surprised me positively with its ability to offer a lot of substance in such a minimal format. For a wedding photographer, this 24mm is not likely to be the primary lens for intimate portraits or scenes in extremely low light, where brighter optics (such as a 35mm f/1.4 or a 50mm f/1.2) reign supreme. However, its value emerges powerfully as a second wide-angle lens to always have at hand or as a fixed lens for coverage of the context and the environment. Think of shooting the breadth of a ceremony in a majestic cathedral, the vastness of a Tuscan landscape with the bride and groom in the foreground, or the atmosphere of a reception with decorative lights and interaction between guests. Here, its compactness and sharpness excel. It's the lens that allows you to shoot with one hand while holding a bag (or a glass of prosecco) or greeting a guest. The speed and quietness of the autofocus is a huge plus for dynamic wedding moments (and videos). The diaphragm ring with de-click switch is a photographer's treat for those who love touch control and for videographers. The compromise on the f/2.8 aperture is real but acceptable if you integrate this 24mm into a larger kit. I wouldn't buy it as the only wide-angle if my priority was extreme bokeh or indoor photography without flash with almost no ambient light. But if you're looking for a lens that's a discreet extension of your eye, capable of capturing wide scenes in superb detail, and that never weighs you down, then the Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G is a great choice. For me, it has become an inseparable travel companion and a great addition to my wedding kit, especially for the sweeping panoramic views and context shots that enrich the narrative. Practically always glued to my A7CII (and before that to the A7C).

Pros: Stunning reportage lens

Cons: Not adapted to pixel peeping

Opinion: This is a splendid reportage lens. Focusing is very fast and the curvature of the field helps in photos taken indoors. The central part of the image is razor-sharp, so you can always crop to tighten the frame. With this 24 you have a digital zoom up to 50 simply by cropping in post, especially if you use a camera with a 60 megapixel sensor. My grade is a nice 10 laude. It is a step above the Leica Elmarit 28 that has accompanied me on my travels around the world for so many years. I see some somewhat critical judgments on the resolution at the edges of the image. True, the resolution at the edges is a little lower, but there is no loss of contrast and this is only visible when zoomed in to 100% on the 27-inch monitor. In real images, printed or viewed at sensible magnifications, the problem is non-existent. This is an excellent lens.

Pros: Compact, lightweight and well built.

Cons: exaggerated distortion - very visible field curvature - vignetting - price

Opinion: After the 40mm f2.5 G (excellent), I wanted to try the 24mm G of the same series thinking to have more or less the same image quality... Nothing could be further from the truth. The sharpness of my specimen has been variable from photo to photo. The exaggerated distortion intolerable for a very recent design perspective with a high price is the thing that made me decide the immediate return. I tried to correct it as many say through Camera Raw and Dxo Lab, but inevitably in addition to losing framed field you lose so much sharpness on the edges. The vignetting is also very conspicuous but recoverable. An optics that is aesthetically fabulous returns very disappointing images. Things to avoid

Pros: Compact, lightweight and well built.

Cons: Distortion quite high that must be corrected in post (or in the car but always via software) price a bit 'high for the type of optics.

Opinion: I have been for years a very happy owner of Canon's 24mm F2.8 IS USM, an optic with which I shot a lot. I was looking for a worthy replacement in the Sony world, for now I haven't done many things yet, I'm using it a bit for fun for now, but I'm starting to get familiar with it. The feeling is still to have a hand a toy for its size (but this is a feeling that also gives the having passed from reflex to mirrorless), a toy that however copes well a little in all light situations, has a good bokeh and a pleasant management of the flare against the light. As said the distortion is imported and must be corrected via software I have not detected aberration problems for now. Overall a good product in my opinion the right price should be around 400 €
