ownership: | I own this lens |
compared to: | Samyang 35mm f/2.8 and Sony FE 50mm f/1.8 |
price paid: | $478 USD used |
positive: | Quick focusing Low weight Small size Unobtrusive Solid build |
negative: | Buttons and switches are crammed in. |
comment: | I enjoy the versatility of this lens. It is perfect for replacing my 35m and 50mm with a single lens. The images from my A7RIII look good to my eyes. This creates a great trio of the FE 20mm f/1.8 G, FE 40mm f/2.5 G and Sony FE 85mm f/1.8 as a flexible walkabout prime kit. While the buttons and switches are crammed in it is still impressive they exist on a lens this size. |
