    Great quality from Sony Very sharp and bright lens. I like the aperture ring and that you have the option to be able to move it on click or continuous. Ultra fast and quiet focus for video recording without that annoying focus motor noise.

    Sony has come into its own with providing extremely high quality lenses for professional or hobbyist with the desire to take beautiful pictures. The 20mm 1.8 G lens can be used flawlessly with anyone of their e-mount cameras. Sharp from edge to edge, aut-focus is responsive and iris can be de-clicked for use in video.

    Excellent sharp wide angle lens. Paired it with my Sony A7IV but returned it because it was a little too wide for me as I’m starting to learn how to use a camera.

    Fantastic lens on both Full Sensor and Crop (makes it about a 30mm lens for APSC). Very sharp and excellent focus as expected. Even caught it on a discount.

    With Sony's Alpha line continuing to progress and evolve with their software and hardware this lens has become one of my main kit lenses for my Sony Alpha A7R III especially for astrophotography and landscape photos. I have no regrets purchasing this lens for my Sony Alpha full frame camera.

    Excellent aperture range and great wide angle lens. To be honest I was looking for or dreaming for a full frame lens with even wider view - but those cameras from Sony are like $2k so I went with this one. Very happy with it.

    This is a great travel lens! Although it's a full frame lens, I use it on an A-6400 with the expectation to move to full frame. It is the perfect focal length for travel and plenty sharp.
