    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.

    This is a really interesting lens with such a wide aperture and wide angle. Little vignetting and with very subtle distortion.

    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.
