Great low-light wide-angle with not much distortion

This lens has a great clarity to it, being a prime lens, and also has little distortion around the edges of the shot.

nice lens

I purchased this lens used (1 month old )and was a little cautious about it's value.Took some pictures and was very pleased.Having other wide angle Len's to compare with 24-105,24-85 and17-40 I can say this 20mm lens is as good or better tan most of the other lens.I like the build quality and how...
Pros:
  • build quality
  • sharp
  • light weight

  • attractive colour rendering
Cons:
  • Soft corners

Perfect Real Estate Lens

I played around with wide and ultra-wide lenses over the years. The best lens for a full frame camera that I have found is this 20mm lens. It seems to be wide without exhibiting extreme distortion. The nice part if the field curvature works well taking photos of small rooms.

A disappointment

Good wide angle for those not looking to spend the earth

This is a nice little wide angle for your Canon DSLR. It is EF, meaning it's designed for full-frame Canons (series such as 1d, 5d, 6d etc) which gives optimal results.
