It comes with a strange lens hood
It comes with a unusual lens hood with a rectangular opening without any petals, which make my nex-7 look like a compact camera. As for its pros and cons, everybody knows: compact but not zoomable. Go for it if you want your nex camera look unconspicuous.

Excellent at Being What It Is
I primarily use an NEX-6 (which I absolutely LOVE!). On my NEX-6, Sony's 35/1.8 is my primary walking-around everyday lens... but sometimes, you need something a little bit wider to take in the full scope of what you're looking at. That's why I got the 20/2.8, and it excels at that purpose. Is this the sharpest lens Sony offers? Nope. But it's a pancake lens, after all, so I wasn't expecting it to be - and neither should you. What it is is reason... Show More

A good lens
I'm new to the whole Sony lineup so will only express what my limited know is. Brought a Sony NEX-7 to be converted to infrared and just got the camera back. The lens came with a 18-55 but I wanted a smaller lens and picked the 20 as it fits (focal-length) between my two-most used medium format lenses. So far and with very limited usage due to harsh conditions I'm very pleased with the overall files.

At least not bad quality and nice design
I'm owner of NEX-6. It's well known sad fact that lines of Sony' Nex lenses is not so fantastic as we'd like and thanks to Sigma we have a little bit better choice to find something suitable according a personal test... I use Sigma 19mm f2.8 EX DN as an incredibly inexpensive and generally good walking/travel lens and I almost happy with it. But we always try to find something better :) I bought this Sony' newest lens to replace Sigma because my ... Show More

Very nice lens
This is a better lens than the 16mm. No softness noticede so far even wide open. The awasome thing that it works nicely with Sony NEX VCL-ECU1 ultra wide converter 0.75x which gives you 15mm to the crop sensor. Nice wide angle baby.

Just barely better than 16mm pancake
I tested it in general purpose, bright light, low light, indoors and out. Focus is somewhat slow and clumsy compared to the larger lenses. Sharpness: It's very similar to the 16mm pancake except that you don't have to stop down to f/8 to get decent usable results. f/4 will do. Mustache distortion makes RAW processing a hassle at times. It is way, way too expensive for its level of performance. I would say it's about on par with the kit lens when ... Show More
