Why even own a 24-105mm lens for landscape photography? Isn't a wide-angle zoom enough? In this video, I'll give you five reasons why a 24-105mm lens is an essential part of my landscape photography tool kit. I will also discuss whether to choose the 24-105mm or the 24-70mm lens.

Thanks to those of you correcting me on the image stabilization in the 24-70 f/2.8. The f/2.8 versions from Nikon, Tamron and Sigma Art do have IS. The two Canon 24-70 f/2.8 doesn't - however, the f/4 version does. My bad ;)

@njrtech 4 года назад

In this day of mirrorless cameras handling higher ISO so well I don't need a 24-70 2.8 anymore! I now use a Sony 24-105 f4 for nearly all my travel shots and it's awesome. Anyone saying otherwise is full of it

@alistairbeavis1536 4 года назад

There's also the new Canon RF 24-70 f2.8 that will have IS.

@MrPedalpaddle 4 года назад

The Sony 24-70 f2.8 does not have image stabilization, but such an expensive lens would be used on one of the Sony bodies that has IBIS stabilization, so not really an issue. However, the Sony 24-105 is my workhorse lens. Thanks for the video.

@BernardGarceau 4 года назад

Absolutely agree. The 24-105 is always on the camera when hiking to a location or touring a city. Love the versatility without changing lenses and the loss of one stop of the 24-70 f/2.8 has never meant a great deal to me. Especially Panos! So literally all of your reasons here really resonate with my photography and approach. Funny enough, you dropped this video while I was in the Faroe's, but from the title alone I knew it would be good one! As as you can imagine, the 24-105 was right there with me the whole trip!

@st1nk1n 4 года назад

This is your first video that I have watched, I like the pace. Very calming :). I've got a 24-70mm Canon with no IS but I don't miss it. Lovely lens. Its the closest I have to a 'kit lens' so I don't miss the extra focal length either but I have heard people say they miss that 35mm more zoom on the 105mm lens.

@brucesmith9144 4 года назад

Great points. I would also add that with today’s DSLR/mirrorless cameras it is easy to adjust ISO to compensate for exposure at f/4 versus f/2.8. But having that extra 35 mm of focal length can’t be added so easily. I like the perspective in the 85-105 mm range for portraits which makes the face look very natural and proportional.

@Bonobo3D 3 года назад

Very helpful discussion that has helped me decide on the 24 - 105. Your photos are spectacular, and loved your excellent results combining several vertical shots to make panoramas.

@CTZNGIRL 3 года назад

Thanks for this highly informative video Mads! After watching many RU-vid videos, I was unsure which zoom to go for and left me mistakenly thinking that an f2.8 lens would be 'better', but your video cleared this up and helped me understand that based on my needs, a 24-105 f4 lens would be perfect (for taking landscape shots) as I can also edit these in Lightroom afterwards. I have just ordered this lens, so thanks again :)

@philipzivnuska8850 4 года назад

I think I agree with you on this. Out of my lens range my canon 24-105 is by far my best lens optically and has an almost perfect range. Thing is I use a cropped sensor canon 80d so I loose some of the wildness I like but fixing that with a pano a great option. Thanks for the informative video Mads!

I shot only with prime lenses for the last decade, then “discovered” the creative power of good zoom lenses when I brought a Lumix LX100 with its 24-70 equivalent to the Yucatán. It has been a game-changer for me, and your 5 reasons sums up why perfectly. I have since added a 24-120mm equivalent for my “big” bodies. And a 16-36. And a 70-200. Sigh... But the 24-120 is truly is my “go-to” lens.

The Canon RF 24-105 is a great street photography lens for Portland and the Pacific Northwest. It’s amazing how often 28mm isn’t quite wide enough and 85mm isn’t long enough. With 24-105, rarely do I find myself wanting a different lens.

After seeing your AMAZING photos, I’m convinced that F/4 will be just fine! Your landscape photos are truly inspiring man! Absolutely beautiful!

@AdrianW_photo 4 года назад

Great video. I own the Sony 24-105 coupled with the a7 r iii. Agree with you that the lens is very versatile. I have used it fir landscape, action (capturing surfers), seascapes, city, and even a few portraits of granddaughter. I knew the lens would be superb quality based on reviews, but am amazed on how flexible it is.

@DavePruett 4 года назад

While everyone must decide what gear works best for them, I agree that the 24-105 is a workhorse. It was my go-to lens for walking around and traveling with one lens for 20 year when I shot Canon (24-105 f/4 L). When I moved to Sony last year, the 24-105 was the first lens I bought. Yes, I use plenty of other lenses when I know what I am going to be shooting and can plan the look I want, or have a pack full of kit to haul around, but I can walk out the door with the 24-105 confident that I will be able to capture a well framed, well exposed shot in almost any situation I am likely to encounter. Of course, if I was going out to shoot sports, this would not be the lens I would take. I have always owned 24-70 f2.8 as well, but I rarely use it. Like you, I find that I miss the extra reach when I am using the 24-70 far more often than I miss the extra stop when using the 24-105. These choices work for me. Your mileage may vary.

@daveydaveguy 4 года назад

I have been using this lens for over a year now and it is my main lens now on location portrait and fashion shoots in addition to action photography due to its flexibility to change angle of view in the flow without having to shop the momentum of shoot to get a close up and and wide in the same pose. Sadly my expensive 85mm prime sits in my bag most of the time.
