Oh, wow, this lens is so much better than the 16mm (SEL-16F28). I know because I used to have the 16mm but sold it after getting this one. The 20mm is much sharper, better built, with a nice and versatile field of view. It also takes the two adapters sold for the 16mm (the wide-angle which I had for the 16mm makes this 20mm a 15mm; and the fish-eye which I don't yet have but intend to buy).
In case anyone's interested, I own a NEX-6 and an A6000. I have most of the "reasonably priced" Sony E-mount lenses: the 20mm with the wide angle adapter; the 30mm Macro (a nice lens if you can get one for a good price), the 35mm prime (one of my favorite lenses for its field of view and its sharp, high-quality images); the 50mm prime (a nice lens, especially for portraits with good bokeh); the 16-50mm PZ kit lens (which I take along with the 20mm when I want to travel very light but still have a bit of a zoom on hand because it takes good, but not great, pictures as you can see clearly see once you've tried the primes); the 55-210 manual zoom (great range, nice and sharp shots, fairly bulky, but I got it for only $150 so can't complain) and the 18-105 PZ "G" lens (which is a superb carry-around lens if you don't mind its relative bulk--it's long and wide, but not too heavy). I've also tried the Sigma lenses (19 and 30mm) but thought, "These would be OK if they weren't so cheaply made (scratch easily) and so bulky and if they had OSS." So I returned them in spite of their low prices. I've also tried for a weekend, but decided not to buy, the Sony 10-18 and 16-70 zooms and the Zeiss Touit 32mm. These are built with high-quality materials and take great shots but they are way too expensive, in my opinion at least, for the relative increase in image quality over the much less expensive lenses.
I'm sure somebody out there will want to quote image tests and pixel peeping comparisons to debate my opinion about this 20mm lens and/or the pricy Zeiss lenses, but my thinking is simply that this "mirrorless" line of medium-format cameras doesn't really need lenses that cost so much. I admit there is a small market for those lenses; they are priced for folks who are willing to spend 2-3 times the money for "something a bit better" (that's how Sony makes back the investment in building lenses that relatively few people will buy). If you really want to step up, I suggest that you skip the APS-C line altogether and buy one of the newest full-frame "A7" camera bodies and any one of the pricey full-frame lenses available for it. With 4 times the money invested, you can see some better images (all else being equal). But switching from APS-C to full-frame means you're not in the same ballpark at all, to use a worn expression. I can say all this with confidence because photography is a hobby for me, not a profession. I'm not taking pictures for National Geographic (I'd love to imagine doing so with my A6000 and one of my pedestrian lenses, but I am not a delusional man). What I am is happy with two Sony APS-C cameras I own. I make use of, and accommodate for, their relative merits. The broad collection of E-mount lenses I have covers most every situation I am likely to get into as a hobbyist. Even better, I bought all my lenses for about 60 cents on the dollar (another hobby of mine is being a bargain hunter).
If you're the kind of photographer that I am, then you'll want to know that this SEL-20F28 lens is a very nice lens to have. I bought it as a "new but sold as refurb" here on Amazon for about 40% off its list. For that kind of money, it really shines as a small, versatile lens (i.e., close-up shots and landscape shots are both very good). It's smaller and faster and sharper than the kit zoom; it also costs much more than the kit zoom. I will add that my 18-105 "G" lens takes a noticeably better (sharper, better contrast, less aberrations) picture set at 20mm than this prime does, but then the zoom is only f4.0 (minimum through its range) whereas the prime is f2.8 and it's 1/10th the size. That's why I have both in my lens bag.
I hope this long ramble helps someone decide whether or not to buy this lens. If not, hey, reading it was free. Peace.

It's a good lens, sharp in all but the very corners at 2.8 improving at f4 and at a peak around f5.6 -f8 with some distortion at all apertures but not excessively so. Make certain you switch on distortion contrtol in the menu. As it is so compact it is very inconspicuous. It come with a strange but effective lens hood (Yes, you do need one on all lenses no matter what some of the so called bozos say on utube). As a walkabout lens it is very effective. Certain reviewers on Utube proclaim it's not so sharp as the Sigma 19? I am not so certain as I had the Sigma 30mm and whilst sharp it didn't have the colour rendition of this one. I also have the 10-18 Sony lens which is remarkable as it also has stabilisation which the 20mm does not have. It is a bit sharper generally than the 20mm, though the 20mm is more than adequate for most purposes (I am a ex-pro industrial photographer). If you do not have Photoshop or similar, then you really should; this more than anything will improve your photography. I use my lenses on 4 Sony A6000s. If I were looking for a cheap set up I would be looking for a Nikon dslr as the lenses for these are probably at least as good as the 20mm and sometimes better and cheaper. but instead of carrying a big lunk of camera which everyone is aware of my A6000 (which I have grown to love) is discreet and unoticable and perfect for street documentary which is what I do in my retirement.

Firstly, hats off to GW Cameras for the speedy service in delivering this lens. I am very impressed.
I own the SEL16f28, which I purchased with my first NEX camera, the 5n.I thought that lens was very limited in terms of quality, hence purchasing the SEL20.
I now have the NEX 7 and this lens was tested on it
I must say that it's completely different from the previous, sub standard 16 version. The photos are sharp throughout, and I never have to correct chromatic aberration or distortions like I did with the previous model.
Autofocus is fast and accurate, even in low lit situations. I tried this both at home and outside, and the results were quite good. Pretty versatile when it comes to video too, as I think that after the SEL35f18 (at triple the price), this is probably one of the best for video. The distance on this lens makes video seem more "real" than the others, as they would be too narrow. With this lens you have a more "open" type of perspective, especially if you couple it with the wide angle adapter from Sony too (VCL-ECU1). I can confirm this works for photos and there is no heavy vignetting in the corners, but there is some, which is easily corrected in post. For video it also works fine, and there is a very slight fish eye effect to it, nothing crazy. I actually quite like it.
Photos are vivid, well contrasted and look quite natural. I tend to do more street photography than anything else, and I'm quite happy with the results. From buildings to people, to alleyways and running photos in train stations... results have been good and i'm keeping this lens! I can't see any alliasing or heavy artifacts as of yet, but then again if you go nitpicking there will be something wrong with every lens...
I have also tried panoramic shooting and really like the results, although it's not really my thing.
If there would be something i'd point out as not so good it would be the focus ring, as when i'm using manual focus this is difficult to use, as the lens is so compact. But still usable,
I am looking forward to taking more photos with this little lens, it has now become a favourite and permanent resident in my camera bag, along with the wide angle adapter. It's a great all rounder, and you can carry it without the added bulk of a bigger lens.
It does come with a front and back lid, and a lens protection cap/light shade. And better yet, the price is down to nearly half price! I don't think anyone will have a reason to complain with this low price. This lens was originally above the

Ok, lets get started by saying I already own the 35 mm 1.8, and 16-50mm PZ (kit lens), both Sony lenses. I've already done a seperate review for the 35mm 1.8. The 20mm seemed like a bargain for 180 quid, but was I right?
The short answer is yes. It's a beautifully compact bit of kit, it has limited scope for shallow depth shots at a max. aperture of 2.8, but I think the compromise is worth it. I have my 35mm 1.8 which I adore, but the 20mm is so small it literally would be stupid to not take it with you everywhere you take your camera!
I'm mainly a manual focus user, as I'm more into artistic photography than family snaps - with that said I've been to a party recently with this lens and I did use autofocus for that occasion, plus flash due to the indoor night-time environment, and I'm pleased to say it was generally very swift, only occasionally struggling when subjects were really close (0.5-1m). Build quality seems the same as the high quality 35mm lens, and looks really sleek and discreet on the camera. The lens hood is unusual but clever, as it adds less forward bulk, avoiding that 'I'M A PHOTOGRAPHER' look which you tend to get with regular 'petal' types. The manual focus ring is extremely narrow, which took some getting used to, but thankfully the grip is very effective so it's hard to slip enough that you can't correct yourself quickly. Manual focus is also a lot more sensitive than the 35mm counterpart by Sony, so again it takes some getting used to, but I think after a while it actually allows you to track targets coming toward/going away a little easier which can be very helpful. Pictures so far have been really hitting above what I was expecting for the money. Sharp at 2.8 and very sharp by 3.5, bokeh can be really good if you have decent distance in your isolation, and I think will be extremely useful focal length (equiv. full frame length = 30mm) for general use.
I've made some outstanding choices with the 20mm and the 35mm, mostly from reading reviews here. They've been a real cut above the kits lens in terms of quality and practicality, and this one is a total steal at 180 quid. If you can afford it, and you're into street/architecture/travel/portraits etc, get both of these lenses and in my opinion you've got yourself a quality, versatile, compact little kit.

It's one of my go to prime lens. I personally think anyone who have e mount lens should get one of these if not sel16f28 although this would be sharper. This have a nice wide angle. Not too wide nor too narrow.

Lovely little lens. So compact I carry it along with camera at all times rather than in separate accessories bag where my other lenses usually live. The lens hood is pretty novel and looks a bit strange at first but it's well thought out just as you'd expect form Sony. I'm no expert so can't give a detailed review of the optical performance but it seems to give good crisp images and a very welcome f2.8 which opens up a lot of creative possibilities. I'm very happy with this lens.

This is the lens that Sony ought to have made when the first NEX cameras came out, a reasonably fast, medium-wide angle, pancake prime. It's a perfect focal length for street photography or casual snapshots. It's small and light, making NEX cameras reasonably pocketable. It's not exceptional, but reasonably sharp across the entire field of view, at least when it is stopped down. I love the size of this lens, though it is wide enough that the edges stick out on a 5n. Just a bit, but it's there.
I was hesitant to put a preorder into B&H when this lens was announced. Sony's previous wide angle prime, the 16mm was a poor lens. I borrowed a friend's and gave it back quickly. It just wasn't sharp, and surprisingly for such a short lens, it didn't focus quickly. There are no focus problems with the 20mm.
It was a relief to look at my first images from this new prime lens. They are are adequately sharp from f/4 and smaller apertures. At f/2.8 they are at least as sharp as the old 16mm was at any focal length. It's also nice to see Sony make a lens that is sharp in the corners. Except for the Zeiss 24mm, Sony's lenses tend to have great center sharpness but soft edges. My guess is that comes from too much focus on video lenses rather than still lenses. This lens is pretty sharp, at least at the apertures that I normally use 5.6-8. It's acceptable at 2.8 and pretty good at f/4. It's soft at f/16 but still usable. I'm satisfied.
One question is how this compares to the Sigma 19mm, which is a good lens. The two obvious differences are price and size. You can pick up an older model Sigma for $150 or less, which make it very attractive. The Sigma is very sharp in the center, from f/2.8 on, sharper than the Sony 20mm. However the Sony is definitely sharper at the edges.The Sony has some color fringing at the edges. The Sigma shows more flare when pointed toward the sun. Neither is a perfect lens.
The real question is whether or not the Sony 20mm is worth ~ $350. If you're just looking at price and image quality, that's tough compared to the Sigma. I just sold some old lenses so I had money burning a hole in my pocket. You can get an optically equivalent lens from Sigma for less than half the price, but the Sigma 19mm is twice as long and heavier, making the camera a bit much to put in a coat or vest pocket. It's also plastic and makes clunking noises (it's not a problem, some Sigma lenses just do that). The Sony 20 is metal with a nice finish, focuses faster and makes my 5n more or less the equivalent of the new Nikon Coolpix A, which sells for $1100. A new NEX 5r with the 20mm lens runs $900. Put in that light, the lens doesn't look quite as pricey. Okay the Nikon's lens is better but you're stuck with 28mm equivalent. The NEX has interchangeable lenses, which is why I'm sticking with it..

I believe Sony listened to all the criticisms regarding the SEL16F28 so much so that web reviews rate it as awful.
Thus Sony launched this the SEL20f28.
At only 13/16 inches (20.4mm) 2mm shorter than the SEL16F28.
It weighs in at 2.4 oz (69g), the housed in a quality metal exterior with a silk black finish.
Its packing three aspherical lens elements correcting distortions.
Image quality in corners has been dramatically improved compared to the 16mm f/2.8 lens, as it only has one aspherical lens surface.
The 20F28 is clear and bright enough for those indoor family photo's.
With a 20mm focal length (35mm equivalent 30mm) and a bright maximum aperture of f/2.8.
The lens hood is not like any other Ive used, this has a rectangular slot in it, but can be left on the lens as protection.
Another handy feature of the hood is that it will go over a slim filter on the lens or a filter can be on the hood, or both!
"I have a Hoya UV, polarizing filter on the hood" as its can be removed with the hood to fit the adapter.
Many people have also asked on on the net if the wide angle adapter (VCL-ECU1) fits this lens
and yes it dose and nicely to. OK you don't achieve the as wide angle as you would if you fit the adapter to the 16F28
but then again the barrel distortion inst as bad or pronounced ether.
I bough this from Amazon to,
See VCL-ECU1 [Sony Ultra Wide Converter for NEX SEL16F28 Lens ]
I haven't tried the lens with the fish eye adapter (fish eye inst my thing!) But i cannot see any reason why it wouldn't fit ether.
With the wide converter on gives you
SEL20F28 x VCL-ECU1
20mm x 0.75mm = 15mm (or 22.5mm equivalent on a 35mm).
This is plenty wide enough for scenery for me.

As far as fixed, pancake, wide-angle lenses go, this one is pretty spectacular. I used own a Sony NEX-5 with the 16mm ƒ/2.8 and it was fun, but was super soft and had tons of edge distortion. When I decided to buy a Sony A-6000 I decided to pick this lens up to go with it and WOW! It's a remarkable improvement over the older 16mm but in a similar form factor. If you're looking for a travel landscape lens this is the one. I carry this and Sony's 50mm ƒ/1.8 on vacations and I'm good to go!

Incompatible with Sony's new and highly raved about Alpha 7II...just go to this web site and have a look...http://support.d-imaging.sony.co.jp/www/cscs/lens_body/index.php?area=us&lang=en&mdl=ILCE7M2...absolutely incredible that this is a suggested lens for that camera...Sony states on the site: "The angle of view will be narrower down to that of APS-C size."...and that goes for just about every lens listed on it's site...It might also be a good idea if Sony checked their own grammar...

its reasonable sharp for f2.8 and 20mm. if you want a really sharp lens, this one is not the good choice for you.
however, i like the range of the lens when i use it to take shot of my girlfriends coz i want the background of picture to tell more story about the pic.

It's an okay pancake lens. The size is really the best part about it. For the money you can buy better lenses, in that size or other sizes. Really soft wide open. Stopped down to F4 it's significantly sharper, but you by an F2.8 lens to be able to shoot that fast. I recommend the Sigma 30mm (which is cheaper) or the Sony 35mm which runs about the same price.

As of right now, this is my favorite walk around lens on my A6000. I mainly purchased this lens because I bought the body-only, and thought this would be a great lens to have. I was right, and find myself using it a lot of the time. It truly looks sleek on my camera and without the lens hood on, it becomes very compact. I would imagine on an NEX 5t or a5100 it would make the camera very pocketable. Overall, the lens seems very sharp for a pancake, and it feels like great quality. Very satisfied with Sony!

I bought the 20mm after returning the 16mm due to it's softness. The 20mm lens is tack sharp, lightweight and contrasty. Very pleased with the performance of this lens.

Buy this over the Sigma 19mm. I've also written a review about that lens. I'm an armature photographer, and while my composition skills are becoming more proficient I still like to focus on sharpness. To me that is important (although some may argue otherwise). Either way, I love this pancake. Recently I've been shooting a little more wide angle for candids shots. This lens fits the bill! Unlike the Sigma 19mm there is sharpness throughout all aperture settings on this lens. The Sigma seems softer than I like at 2.8. That's my biggest complaint about that lens. This little lens is discrete with is pancake form factor, making it possible to store in a coat pocket if you'd like. This lens is also faster than the Sigma. I'd recommend this for street photography or candids. It is a little pricier then the Sigma but well worth it. I highly recommend this lens.

The 20mm offers a good balance between the amount of a scene that can be captured and the level of detail that can be seen. It is also suited to low light conditions and the lightweight nature reduces the potential for camera shake. Although it does not by definition offer the range of a zoom, the 20mmm lens satisfies a broad range of video and still shooting possibilities. In addition it provides a base for adapters to add ultra wide and fish eye lenses.
The finer detail of lens construction is always slightly beyond my grasp (three aspheric lens elements) but the results were not. Using the 16mm pancake lens as a comparison point, the 20mm gave closer-to-life colour rendition with impressive saturation in stills - and with slightly less distortion to vertical and horizontal lines. This seemed to tie in with the blurb that it `reduces distortion and aberrations around the image periphery... with improved resolution and contrast'.
The lens is very compact and can easily be placed in a pocket when camera bag space is at a premium. It is supplied with rear and front lens caps as well as a lens hood. As with most other lenses in the NEX series, this one is shipped without a case, which is a little disappointing given the RRP and the fact that it is one of many interchangeable lenses compatible with the cameras.
The hood is pre-fitted to the lens on arrival and is clearly designed with ease of use in mind as it is so sleek that it never really needs to be removed unless you want to add a convertor - which means one less piece of loose equipment to carry around in your bag and one less thing to clip into place before shooting. The hood adds little to the size or weight of the lens and the cap fits securely whilst it remains in place.
The SEL20F28 is a great lens that produces good video and still images. I really like the way the lens hood has been integrated and my only (very minor) criticism is that it would have been handy to get a case as part of the package, particularly as the lens is so small it can easily be placed in a pocket. Results have been stunning, even at lower light levels. Sometimes a zoom can provide too much choice and particularly when you need to travel light, the SEL20F28 might be the perfect solution.

Great addition to my a6000 system. If I do my job properly, this lens gives me great results every time.

Underwhelmed. Maybe I received a dud but this lens feels cheap and the photo quality isn't any better than the 16-50mm Power Zoom Lens that accompanied the camera. Not recommended.

Good lens in that it is compact and creates good images. Maybe not the sharpest, but reliable, fast, and above all, a compact solution for the NEX line of APS C Cameras.

Fast lens in my preferred focal length. My main subject is my kids, so I needed something fast and wide to capture them. This lens fits the bill. It's not as sharp as Canon L glass (what I am used to), but it is good enough to keep me happy with my A6000 purchase.

This Sony pancake wide angle lens is a outright miracle. OK, images are a bit soft around the edges, and the center of the image is sharpest when it's stopped down somewhat (to f/8, for example) -- but considering the price and the size and weight, this lens is truly wonderful. 5+ stars.

Fantastic lens for Sony NEX series. Pancake, so super slim. F/2.8 isn't the fastest lens, but for a Pancake, just about right. Wish Sony made a 35mm equivalent, rather than this 30mm equivalent, as to me, 35mm is still the perfect walk around. I shoot with an A7 (full frame) and an NEX-5 (APS-C), and the NEX-5 plus this lens is pocketable, and way faster than the kit zoom.

I have been using a Sony NEX-7 for about a year and was desperate for a good (yet not too ridiculously expensive) compact prime lens. I chose the NEX-7 to have a great camera that remained portable. I initially used the SEL50F18 (Sony's 50mm f/1.8 E Mount) but found the pictures to be less sharp than expected with that lens; the 50 mm also made the camera more bulky. Then I finally got this lens. The 20mm f/2.8 has been providing much sharper images. In addition, it's low profile makes the camera extremely portable. I use it on a daily basis for most of my "casual shooting."
The only drawback is what is inherent to a 20mm lens - your shots will still be wide-angle even with a 1.5x crop factor. This is not ideal for portraits and there is some mild distortion. However, for traveling and use in tight indoor spaces, it has been an excellent choice.
I tend to favor prime lenses over zoom because of better apertures, size/weight, and my style of shooting. I just tend to compose better with a prime. However, if you're not used to using a prime lens or want to avoid wider angles, there are several other options available for NEX line. For those looking for a daily carry lens, this might just be the one.
