canon 24mm f2.8 stm

what do you shoot mainly?

I had a 40mm f2.8 STM before and I decided to sell it because I don't use it as much as I thought, mainly because I shoot indoor all the time and framing the photo with 40mm is kind of too tight.
I recently purchased the 24mm f2.8 STM, I love the lens for the focal length and the wide aperture f2.8.

Took it out for street photography, nice and wide to capture what I needed. I tend to capture a bit wider to have the flexibility to crop (if needed)

I think both lenses are pretty much the same except for the focal length.
I'm not a professional photographer, it is purely my personal experience.

I would trade me 40mm with the 24mm

I would not trade it and if you still want a portrait lens, get the nifty fifty. 1.8 aperture performs better than the 2.8 of the 40mm stm.

Edit: realized OP has the 24mm and not the 40mm...

BTW, where the heck did you get the 24mm for $115?

I find the 50mm too long for indoor shots most of the time, but the performance is great on plastic fantastic

Most of my shots will be indoors.

I got it at blacks. I have access to a 50mm f/1.4.

Alright I guess I'll keep it. Thanks

The 40mm is 144 + tax @ blacks.

You got a good deal.

I got mine at Blacks as well, but it is priced at $125 + tax, i guess the discount is vary by location.

Oh, i forgot blacks is closing/shutdown. are their sales still on?
