Nice, Compact, and Sharp

This is a great lens to travel lightly with and always stays in my to go bag when heading out the door. Very sharp when stopped down a stop or two and focus speed is a non-issue. The only down side is it lacks the distance information for Sony's flash system.

Outstanding Wide Angle Prime

This is a truly superb prime wide-angle lens, works flawlessly on a900 - full-frame wide lenses are hard to come by, but I would strongly suggest getting this. Super-sharp from f4 onwards, still delightful and fast at 2.8; great colours and depth.
Pros:
  • Consistent Output
  • Lightweight
  • Quick Focus
  • Sharp Focus
  • Strong Construction

sony 20mm f/2.8 Lens Review

Sony's 20mm f/2.8 lens has been around for some time. Curiously, Sony's website says that the lens has a focus-lock and a focus-limiter but in fact neither of these features is provided (nor necessary) on this lens.

Excellent lens for low light photography.

I bought this lens used for a trip to France; I anticipated being in very old buildings with low light and no flash permitted. All of that turned out to be true and the lens performed very well. Notre Dame, for instance was dark with a great amount of detailed stone work, art work etc.
