    The lens is very sharp, light, and fast. Even at this focal length, the 1.8 bottom provides limited depth of field with close subjects allowing soft backgrounds.

    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.
