Readers’ Choice: Best prime lens of 2024
Prime lenses aren’t what they used to be. Today’s lenses are bigger and more costly than their SLR-era ancestors, with advanced aspheric optics and exotic lens elements. This year’s class of lenses includes primes at classic focal lengths like 35 and 50mm lenses, lenses for APS-C cameras, a healthy selection of third-party options, and more lenses intended for ‘hybrid’ stills and video use.
We have included lenses that were introduced in previous years if they were made available in new lens mount options in 2024. In these cases, we have specified the lens mount announced this year in parenthesis.
Our editorial team has had its say already in our 2024 DPReview Awards, but which of this year’s new prime lenses was your favorite? This is your chance to let us and the industry know.
Polls are now open, see below.
Voting occurs in three categories (cameras, prime and zoom lenses), running through December 21.
Once the vote has closed, we’ll run a fourth and final poll drawn from the first three winners to determine the Readers’ Choice Product of the Year. Look out for that poll early in 2025.
Voting is easy – pick your top 3 products by dragging and dropping to rank them in order of priority. Products are listed alphabetically.
Please note that for the best experience, we recommend voting on our desktop site.
Poll Rules:
This poll is meant to be a bit of fun. It’s not sponsored, promoted, or paid for in any way, and DPReview doesn’t care how you vote. Our readers’ polls are run on the basis of trust. As such, we ask that you only vote once, from a single account.
