Will do!

Thanks! The Nikkor just seems to have a bit more contrast in test videos. I will probably just have to find out for myself!

Cool, gotchya. I would be fine with a really solid 24mm. I don't need anything crazy wide. I'm going between the Sigma Super Wide 24mm, Nikkor 24mm and Minolta MD Rokkor-X 24mm. I'm trying to match them to current production lenses a bit, so I'll be going for contrast, color rendition and sharpness. Less about character for me on this one, more about a solid performer. Thanks!

Well I will be using a speedbooster with the GH4, making the sensor closer to an APS-C. I was eyeing the Pentax 18mm f/4 and 20mm f2.8. Neither of them got stellar reviews and were a bit pricey. I'm checking out the Canon 20mm f/2.8.. I know a completely different route, but I just can't seem to find many fast 20mm lenses with good reviews.

Thanks! Also, I would be using this with a similar crop to APS-C on my GH4. With a speedbooster it brings the crop to around 1.4x in 1080p or 1.63x in 4K. I also already have a k-mount to sony-e adapter so I can use it in full-frame or aps-c on my A7siII. The goal is to find a wide angle that works on both cameras well. The Sigma 24mm Super Wide seems to be a good choice.
However, if anyone can recommend another full-frame vintage 24mm i'm all for it. Seems like the Nikkor's generally get some of the best reviews. I'm trying to spend no more than around $200.

I am, thanks! Is the Sigma 20mm not a FF lens?

I've heard good things about this lens! How is the MF ring in the AF version? I'm using this only for video and you said the MF version is a bit softer? I'm assuming a big enough lens hood would help with with flare? Distortion doesn't bother me.
Thanks!

I have, I used to have the 14 and liked it. I forgot to mention that I'm trying to find something with a smaller filter size. I just checked out the nikkor 24mm ai and canon fd 24mm, and they seem to get good reviews. Anyone have experience with either of those lenses?

Totally good with manual focus! Thanks!

Those both look awesome, however I'm looking for something a bit cheaper. That 15 looks awesome though!

Hey all,
Looking for wide angle k-mount lens recommendations. I'm going to be using it on my GH4 and A7sii. I'll be speedboosting it on my GH4 so it will as close to the actual focal length as I can get. Looking for something in the 15 - 24mm range. I already have a 28mm, but I can only use it on my Sony. Something around 20mm would be awesome but I know those are rarer.
Thanks,
Dan
