I currently have four lenses that cover 24mm in my kit; the Tamron 17-28mm f2.8 lens; the Sony 24mm f1.4 GM lens; the Sigma Art 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN; and the Sony 24-105mm f4 G OSS lens, that were bought at different times for different purposes.
1) The Tamron 17-28mm f2.8 lens, sunrise over famed Monument Valley scene of countless movies, TV shows, commercials, Navajo lands, Arizona/Utah border, USA. 61mp Sony A7RIV, 28mm, ISO 100, f22 (to get the max sun stars), 1/125 sec.
2) The Sony 24mm f1.4 GM. Jade at sunset in the Nevada Desert, USA. 61mp Sony A7RIV, 24mm, ISO 400, f1.6, 1/160 sec. Here the f1.4 came in handy. The only light was from the headlights of two cars, with added non-flammable colored smoke added on site. This Sony 24mm f1.4 GM is considered among the sharpest 24mm lenses ever made, even wide open at f1.4. .
3) The Sigma Art 24-70mm f2.8 DG DN lens. The Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California, USA. 61mp Sony A7RIV, 24mm, ISO 200, f8, 1/80 sec., handheld. This lens is superbly sharp.
4) The Sony 24-105mm f4 G OSS lens, bought first among these four lenses. A photo that was chosen as a Worldwide Photo of the Week by Sony Alpha Photographers in 2021. Environmental Scientist Brooke Hildebrand in a slot canyon near Upper Antelope Canyon, Navajo lands, Page, Arizona, USA. 24mp Sony A9, 24mm, ISO 400, f4, 1/30 sec., handheld, all natural sunlight only ,in the slot canyon. I could only take one camera and one lens with me into the canyon so this gave me a range of focal lengths, that I would not have had with a prime.
5) The Sony 24-105mm f4 G OSS lens again, showing its focal length versatility. A Parrot in flight on the Caribbean Island of Sint Maarten/St. Martin, 50mp Sony A1, 105mm , ISO 1600, f 4, 1/2000 sec., handheld, all natural sunlight.
