Love is an understatement. Yes, you can take great shots with more the much more affordable 50mm f/1.8. Sure. And I did for about a year. But it kept haunting me. The 24mm (35mm equivalent on APS/C) was just so much more of a walk around lens, but with Sonnar T? Coating, Zeiss sharpness and...

Very satisfied,not being an expert or a pixel piper the images are very sharp,and the delivery was fast,good job AMZ

This is a great lens - very sharp, I like the field of view as 24mm looks very natural on APS-C for a good general purpose lens, and f1.8 is great for low light.

I bought this lens a few weeks ago to use with the a6000. I have owned the a6000 for a while but haven't used it much because I also have the A7R Mk2 which as a full frame camera has many advantages.

The lens I received was decentered i.e. the left side of the photos (especially on large apertures) is much softer than the right side. Make sure you test yours.

Aside from its asking price, there's not much to gripe about with the Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* E 24mm F1.8 ZA. It's an extremely sharp lens, even at the edges of the frame at f/1.8, and it focuses quite close.

Strong edge-to-edge sharpness; Minimal distortion; Wide aperture; Wide-angle field of view

Omits optical stabilization and weather sealing; Corners dim at widest apertures; Pricey

I have to return it because it down grade the jpeg size from L42M to L18M only ! I finally found out that this lens was not Compatible with the a7r iii !!

Get a Carl Zeiss Sonnar optical lens for rich imagery that will let you relive memorable moments with the clarity they deserve. The large f/1.8 aperture provides for excellent low-light sensitivity and depth-of-field, while a smooth and quiet AF is great for creating movies.
