  Need help with the lens setup

  Posted by Souvik RoyChoudhury on June 21, 2025 at 4:08 pm

  I would define myself as a casual hobbyist photographer than a professional or artistic grade. I usually do family portraits, landscape and shoot bees and birds. Since I live in city, I sometimes do street photography and architecture as well.

  Existing gear setup: Based on my wider interest I bought tamron 50-400 for my sony a7iii included kit lens 28-70mm.

  Issue: Now im struggling with low light, wide and overall sharpness image for the focal length relative to 28-70 f3.5/5.6.

  I have shortlisted 2 lens which I wanted to replace with kit lens:

  1. Sony 20 mm f1.8
  2. Tamron 20-40 f2.8

  Can 20 mm or 20-40 be replaced with kit lens and can be used for all purpose up to 50mm ?

  if any other lens you like to propose then it will be highly appreciate.

  Noted that the sony 24-70 mm gm is the expensive one, hence I didn’t consider that as an option.
