![]() You have to know when you will need one focal length over the other – but that’s just a simple case of knowing which lens works best in each scenario and changing them in advance. I tried it for the first time at a wedding and found switching between that and the Sigma 35mm 1.4 Art lens was a breeze. There was also more vignetting at its max aperture and I just couldn’t get on with it! Enter the Sigma 24mm 1.4 Art Lens. ![]() I tried it once at a wedding and honestly I just didn’t like it – it was sharp for a zoom but not as much as a prime. Sigma was always brave to release a zoom lens with such a short focal range, but I thought it was perfect for my needs – and if it was going to be a zoom that acts like a prime lens then it would be perfect for me. Enter the 24mm! At first I thought the idea of constantly having to switch between 24mm and 35mm was ridiculous, so I initially purchased the very much overlooked Sigma 24-35 f2 lens. I also found myself at weddings with a 35mm not capturing enough of the scene in certain situations when I wanted that extra bit of context, and the ability to get a little bit closer. More and more I found that the results I was getting from a 24mm lens on film were really peaking my interest. ![]() I use film for personal stuff and with not having the funds to invest in other lenses I stuck to using those lenses that I had. This all changed when I got my film camera which came with a 24mm and a 50mm. With that in mind – I always thought it wasn’t much wider than 35mm and therefore not wide enough to make a difference. I’ve always found 24mm a little bit of an odd focal length for my needs, and never thought I would use it for anything other than wide shots of decorations or venues. The only specs I’ll be showing are the ones below and these are the ones I tend to find practically most useful. My main photography work and passion lies in weddings so that’s pretty much what I’ll be talking about in this review. If you want to check out the in depth MTF charts and everything else then google is your friend. Using the Sigma 24mm 1.4 ART Lens for weddingsįirst of all I’ll get the usual “this is not an in depth chart and numbers review” disclaimer out of the way and just let you know this is a real world review.
