small light and great for panorama's
Fit and finish are very good. The lens appears to be clad in metal, and has a metal mount, but is extremely light-weight and almost seems like it could be a mock-up, with no glass or internals. At first I was hesitant because of some reviews that i had read online about its poor IQ overall.

Sony E-Mount SEL16F28 16mm f/2.8 Wide-Angle Alpha E-Mount Lens (New Non Retail Packaging)
The photos with this lens are great! With an aperture of 2.8 you can get a nice blurry background. It lets in a lot of light. Sharp, crisp images from this lens! With the NEX5 N, and this lens, it can fit in your pocket!

Good buy for a Sony NEX series camera
Changes the look of the Sony NEX such that most people think it is a much cheaper camera so are astonished by the quality of the photos. A lot easier to carry around as the lens is so compact.
Pros:
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
- Quick Focus
- Strong Construction

Pros:
- Easy To Use
- Lightweight
- Quality Construction
Cons:
- It's Silver
- Notthe Sharpest Out There

Great must have wide-angle lens
This lens, in tandem with a Sony NEX camera, has produced excellent portrait and close-up photographs of people and products. With the optional fish-eye attachment, it takes cool group photos, and image quality is superior.

Tiny but sucky
Well, there's a reason lenses are expensive and you get what you pay for. The main draw for this lens is the size and weight. Build quality's good, too. Thin aluminium and smooth focus ring. It's incredibly convenient and if you're a casual photographer who's put off by heavy equipment, a good buy.

Thank you
Thank you, It's a good lens. But this is a crop. For full-frame, Sony ar7ii you can use, but on 16 mm you see a crop when you change mode 35mm, you don't see a crop, but you see about ~20-35mm.
