Thanks for checking the video out! This was shot on the Sony Zeiss 24mm F2. Check out our blog on The Camera Store's site to see detailed descriptions of the gear used. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV
There is something about these videos that I never notice when watching any other videos on youtube. The same sort of feeling you get when watching a movie... What im trying to say is these are incredibly well produced with great "presenters" with great clear and appealing voices and all of that thrown together just makes it feel like a prime time TV show. So yeah. well done for that!

If you are using the viewfinder, the T4i will always be loud. Shooting in liveview will reduce shutter sound substantially. If you are after a very quiet shutter, check out the Panasonic GH3. It can shoot with a silent electronic shutter. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV
I would actually recommend the Tamron instead. The edge sharpness is the primary selling point of the Canon 24-70 II, and the crop factor of the C100 would make that irrelevant. Also, as mentioned in the video, the Tamron has a stabilizer which will make your handheld work on the C100 much less wobbly. Also, you'll save $1000. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV
Hey guys! Nice video! Did you had the VC on or off when took the auto focus speed challenge? I think, that this will influence the duration of focusing a lot.
Thank you guys! I was so close to winning the 24-70l canon lens on auction today. I'm really bummed but I'll be on the lookout for one! Great film. Thanks.
I have had the Canon 2.8... and after buying the Tamron 2.8 VC... I was blown by the quality and how far better quality they are now, I am sticking with the Tamron.
Errr... No... Even at night you would not want to shoot at 2.8 because your Depth of Field would be so shallow that most of your landscape shot would be out of Focus...
it depends on the shot, if most of the landscape is far enough away that it is in focus at infinity then it wouldn't really be an issue (if the lens was sharp corner to corner at f/2.8) Edit: sorry, just noticed how old your comment is, sorry for comment necromancy
cheatingthesystem21 This JjSands guy is a jerk and a troll. The fact is, without IS there is no justification in buying this lens. People are not going to buy a lens like this for versatility or general purpose. If that was the case, they would buy the 24-70 F4 L for $999.00. People want a lens like this for the speed. F2.8, to shoot indoors, at night and artistic photography. In which case there are a few different directions you can go without spending as much money. For instance, there are two lenses from Sigma with excellent reviews and are being used by many pros: The Sigma 18-35 1.8 for $799.00 and the 50mm 1.4 art lens for $949.00. You can buy both those lenses and still have money for a case of beer. Of course I'm talking still photography.
Im sold on the Canon in every way except the fact that it doesn't have IS. I shoot both video and photography and I feel that spending all of this money on a lens with no IS will hurt me during video production. I have a range of other lenses however so I would be covered on a video shoot for other options, but i'm worried about seeing the negative effects of no IS on a ridiculously expensive lens. Any suggestions/other alternatives?
Do both of these lenses make noises when shooting videos? Like using VC & F stop & focus & zooming during video shots. Nice clips to share to the world.
I just sold the 10-year old Canon 24-70 f/2.8 and after serious considerartions ended up with the Tamron which I have been trying now for two days only. The picture quality is very much better than with the old Canon. I can see distortion this way on wide angle and that way on the tele side. Tele, sort of, call it long normal. I see quite remarkable vignetting which surprises me, it is on the long end. Autofocus is accurate, the wide open shots are sharp where you want them to. Then the VC or IS or whatever you want to call it. With the Canon 5DIII the picture quality degrades at high ISO. The extra couple of EVs provided by the stabilizer come in handy here -unless, of course you are shooting moving subjects. This was essentially the reason why I picked the Tamron...the asthma medication I need now makes my hands shake and, well...there is not much else you can do if you want to shoot hand held...
Thanks for the review! If you had to choose between the tamron and 24-105, which one would you take? Both about the same price and have vc/is; one is faster, but the other has more range. How would you rate the IQ in the comparable range; big difference? Thanks for your thoughts!
I have budget issues and in my country the Sigma is a lot cheaper than the Tamron.So should I consider taking Sigma or wait for months then buy the Tamron. And also how good is the Sigma in terms of video?
This was my first video watching from u guys, and I don't know how I haven't heard of you already! Great review that seems to have no bias, and keeps entertainment! Could you share what lens was used for the making of this video?
when is IS a must have? only for videos? I got the canon 24-70mm F/2.8 ii and I was told no having IS is not a big issue since I can compensate for it, but in what situations is a must have and that I can't do any type of adjustments in aperture or S.S? thanks
I honestly don't think the Canon would be worth the extra money on a crop body. The Tamron is exceptional in the centre 80% of the image. With the Canon you are largely paying for the outstanding edge to edge performance on a full frame. Jordan @ The Camera Store TV
Thanks for this review. I've been looking for a video like this and finally found it. Everyone is comparing tamron vs the old canon 24-70 when I heard that the newest canon 24-70 II is much sharper at 2.8 ad at f/8. Once again thanks.
Also if you shoot sports, you're probably not going to use a 24-70. You'll be renting a 400 or greater. Or if it's indoor or close outdoor action, at the very least you'll be going for the 70-200 f/2.8, and that's a different lens shootout which I don't believe you've covered yet. Is the Tamron 70-200 f/2.8 VC (newer version) vs the Canon 70-200 f/2.8 IS on the schedule yet?
Just got the Tamron 24-70, exellent lens for the price. DXO Optics pro 10 lens correcting software takes care of all lens flaws. Really pleased with the purchase.
Nice review - I'm sold on the Tamron! My 70D is going to carry this lens for general purpose photography (in spite of its limited landscape potential on a cropped sensor
I'm using a 70D as well. I returned the 2.8 ii from canon and got the Tamron. Im into film, I really needed that VC. I am happy with purchase. Although, I'm totally a canon guy. Disappointing to see a 2,000 lens without IS ...
i had a question ive been using mark 3 for awhile and loving it .. i wanted to purchase a new lens and am confused between three lenses .. the first one is a carl zeiss 25mm f2 which has no chromatic aberration .. and second being the 16-35mm f2.8 II and third being 24-70 f2.8 II am not sure which is the best choice .. i already own a Zeiss 18mm,50mm and 85mm and a canon 70-300 L so which one would you choose out out of the three please let me know thanks
A decent one? Something larger than your computer screen. Something to display on a wall, to be proud of. I understand what your saying but if you missed the focus and could have hit it you missed the picture. Maybe it's just me but I wouldn't be satisfied with an image knowing it could have been better if it was focused. And I would say sharpness is how true the detail of whatever you're capturing is to the actual thing. That tamron image that was pointed out in the original comment is not focused at all. Even if you scaled it back down the IQ of the canon would be much better. In this specific situation
hey, i know u've done Sony A7. My question is will the VC work on Tamron 24-70 attached to Sony A7 through LA-EA4 adapter? Can you do a review on this? thx a bunch
is there any way to silence the shutter on the T4i. i take a lot of wildlife photos and the noise is crazy loud. if there is no way to silence it then what camera would you recommend that matches or nearly matches the quality of the t4i. thanks for your time
Canon is silly they put an IS with a Macro feature on the same as this one but brought the f/2.8 to f/4 which I don't understand why. one reason was lost weight. Also they put the pinch cap on the f.4 but not on the f/2.8. Mr CameraStoreTV can you do a compare of Canon 24-70mm f.2.8 II USM with Canon 24-70mm f/4 IS USM. canon said the f4 can shoot good fast in low lighting they have new lens technology. is it true? or BS? I need to know to buy which for a budge
Great review - as a local client I would say why not just show the pricing? The Canon is on Sale $300 off on your website (June 2020) at $2199 (yikes) but the Tamron is $1599 (down $200 from $1799) ... the question is, is it $600 better? I get the debate but if you can throw down $1600 on a lens, you can probably stretch to $2200. They are both expensive.
How do you think this version of the Canon 24-70 would fare on the upcoming Canon EOS C100 cinema line camera? A good fit for video shooting? Or? Because I'm not so sure that camera offers or can offer OIS. Thanks!
Thanks for the review! I never thought I would buy another lens but Canon but I happily traded my Canon 24-105/4 IS USM for the Tamron. I like the way of presentation because it lacks brand bias and gives both lenses their due.
Great review guys. Just a thought, if your doing landscapes all the time time at F/2.8, sure go with the more expensive glass. At f/8 the Tamron at 24mm is very good on the corners.
Thanks a million! This is the exact review I've been Needing! I'm an 18 year old Music Video Director so I don't have anywhere close to the money for the Canon!
I've had the Tammy 3 different times over a 3 yr period & could never fall in love with it! It shot sharper with the VC off but still didn't love it, bought the Mark II & not only got rid of the Tammy I no longer needed my 35mm prime any more:)
Steve MacDonald the 35 prime is still 2 stops faster. i won't be getting rid of mine. you also can't replicate the look with the 24-70 either. ie background blur.
Hi brother, ,let me ask you how do find The Tamron 24-70 2.8?I want to buy to use for my weddings,i wish could buy the Canon 24-70 2.8II but i can't afford it at the moment.Should i buy it for stills? Thanks man
I bought the Tamron earlier this year & never once regretted it. Which is not to say that the Canon is not superb. I'm just totally happy with my choice. Especially considering the VC & the price. In short, Tamron's a great performer!!
I have the Tamron 24-70mm lens and love it -- no issues whatsoever. No play between the camera and lens with my 24-70mm…it's absolutely tight and solid on my lowly D7000 body. Can't see paying double the price for a lens that doesn't even have VC! The Tamron 70-200mm lens will be my next lens.
Awesome video, I recently have purchased the Tamron 24-70 and chose it over the canon by price and VC. Unfortunately I am having a hard time with the focusing, especially during sports and wedding shoots.
I'm mostly a video guy and wanted to know what would be a better buy the Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 VC or the New Canon 24-70mm f/4L IS. Would that extra 200 bucks be worth the money being its an L glass or would that 2.8 on the Tamron be worth getting over the Canon?
Why when you test distortion at 24mm , you show only part of the wall or you was close to the wall? while in Tamron test you have bigger amount of bricks.
