Great Pancake!
||Posted .I have a Sony a7III camera and while I knew that this was a APC lens, I wanted to get something that would make my setup more travel friendly. We were leaving our camera at home lately due to the size and bulk of the 24-70 G-Master lens and camera combination. This fixes the portability concern and we now can travel and photograph with ease!

Better outdoors than indoors.
||Posted .Owned for 1 month when reviewed.I've only used it now just a handful of times. It works great outdoors. Indoors wasn't too great. But the outdoor pictures I got were just what I was hoping.

Not a bad pancake lens
||Posted .I used this lens all over Iceland and Portugal. Took good images. Definitely better lenses out there. Just bought sigma 16mm 1.4 and now probably wont use the 20mm

Q: QuestionIs this compatible with a Sony A7?
Asked by Kelj.
- A:Answer If you put this 20mm F/2.8 APS-C (i.e., crop mode lens) on the A7iii (24 Mpixel full frame camera) it will automatically select crop mode for you and work, but it will then be equivalent to 30mm F/4 and take 10 Mpixel photos due to the crop factor. (I own the A7iii and tried this out.) Note that with the A7Riii 42MP camera, it would still crop to 18MP.

Q: QuestionI was looking for a wide-angle lens for my Sony a6400 and stumbled upon this one. I needed a lens that could capture the space of a room for my real estate photography, would this lens work for me?
Asked by Jeremiah.
- A:Answer For real estate photography, you may want to go with the 10-18mm lens. The 20mm won’t give you a wide enough angle.

Q: QuestionIs this lens compatible with the sony a7iii? Does the lens achieve that distorted effect on human subjects at a closer proximity? Or would I need to opt for the 10-18mm?
Asked by camera321.
- A:Answer Hi camera321, the lens is compatible with the a7iii and yes it will produce distortion when the lens is placed near the subject in close proximity. If you would like a more extreme distortion, a wider lens focal length lens like 10-18mm will be more effective.
