Very responsive auto focus for video , even in low light!

Now my fav lens!

Wide but not too wide. This lens is sharp from corner to corner and excels at everything from architectural to astrophtography.

Just wide enough

Have used this once or twice and the results are very sharp in the centre, but the corners do lag behind, hence the 4 stars instead of 5! Distortion is quite well controlled providing you are not too close to your subject.

Great Wide Angle lens

I bought this lens about 3 weeks ago and I am very pleased it's wide but not too wide. I used it for landscape photography at Kew Gardens never changed the lens once for a whole day shoot really pleased

Sony FE 20 1.8

Highly delighted with this lens and results from it are great for my use as an enthusiast photographer, I have no need for G Master lens, nor can I justify their cost as an enthusiast.

Great lens

This lens is fantastic. It's small, sharp as you're want, quick af. It's very expensive for a non gym prime, but it probably could have been a gm lens. If you want a uwa and don't rely on absurdly wide for dramatic impact, or if you want to do Astro without spending thousands on a lens, this is a great shout. It's my favourite wonky lens, and unfortunately the only one without significant flaws (35 1.8 is good for the price, but flawed). 

If you're on the fence I'd take this over the 16-35pz, this lens has a wow factor that the ox just doesn't have. 

I'm in the process of selling every other Sony branded lens(to buy one gm and pair it with some third party) and will keep this one, it's a gem. I wish Sony made other non gm lenses that were at least somewhat in the realm of affordable like this one, and weren't so terribly flawed.

It's not budget, but it is value

Absolutely great lens. Very sharp, great autofocus and quite honestly outperforms my 35mm 1.4 GMin both image quality and autofocus

Great Lens

This was recommended to me by several people for astrophotography and it does not disappoint. Its 1.8 aperture allows so much light and makes focusing on stars so much easier. Very little coma.

Impressive Prime for Astro

Small compact with full aperture and AF/MF switch. Sony, please make the same for 35mm, 50mm and 85mm G Prime with the same design and at F1.8!

Great G Prime - pls make more models!

Bought this lens knowing I'll only have limited use due to the nature of my photography is in wildlife. But the build & image quality out of it is amazing.

Sony FE 20mm f1.8

I've used the Sony 20mm mainly for landscapes. Fast aperture and very lightweight.

Great landscape and low light lens

So happy with the performance of this lens, such a joyful lens to shoot and extremely sharp!

Joyful!

I've been using his about a month now and am very impressed. I was looking for a multipurpose wide angle for Astro photography that would also be useful for landscape and am very happy with this lens. 20mm is a good sweet spot between the ultra wide 14 and the somewhat 24mm. 

This lens does outperform the 24mm gm in terms of sharpness. Distortion is minimal, handles flare very well and little to no fringing. Perfect lens for 2 prime lens backcountry travel. This and the 55 1.8 is an extremely lightweight and compact combo.

Outstanding images

Let me preface this by saying that I'm new to the Sony ecosystem? this lens is incredibly impressive. Sharp and allows great detail. I wasn't sure how I'd like the manual aperture ring but I fell right in line with it naturally and haven't used the in camera aperture adjustment since. This lens is great for landscape but what I'm really surprised about is how close you can get and the detail it produces when you do. I definitely recommend this lens.

New To Sony

Very clear and great features: FE 20mm F1.8 G it's excellent!

Very clear and great features

I bought this lens few weeks ago and I'm very happy with the performance

Great light lens

Super sharp and crispy lens for both photo and video. The autofocus is nice and snappy and the field of view is perfect for landscape, architecture and even vlogging. Highly recommended.

Perfect wide angle lens that isn't too wide.

Comparitive with Sony 24mm F1 8 za is not as sharp but nearly there. The Len can gather alot light, sometime it over exposed the image. The form factor balance with my hand profile. Still learning to the characteristic of this Len.

Good! How good?

I bought this lens last year after acquiring the my A7C. The 20mm f1.8 is outstanding particular for indoor limited light use. I personally dislike using flashes under any circumstances as it proves difficult to adjust (for me) even in post. This lens gives me the freedom to use it for limited light situations and still achieve great results.

Excellent lens!

Small, easy to use/handle with great performance. Aperture at f/1.8 for low light photo capture. And it is a G lens.

Palm sized

Amazing colors and low light shooting has been incredible

Compact and light

Lensa dengan kualitas terbaik untuk wide angle dengan performa yang optimal. Sangat ringan dibawa kemanapun, dan jika dikombinasikan dengan kamera Sony yang bisa adaptif dengan mode apsc maka saya bisa memperoleh lensa 35mm meskipun mengorbankan resolusi sih

Best wide lens performance per price

Easy to use, light weight, produce a sharp picture and a nice bokeh.

Excellent Picture

Love the performance and compact size of this lens...

Compactness...

It is extremely light weight, great for gimbal video filming.
It's sharp picture quality even up to the corners.
The click and de click of iris is very useful for photo or video filming.

Sony 20mm f1.8 G lens
