Pros: Dimensions and low cost, good optical yield

Cons: Easy to lose it in your pocket or bag

Opinion: Extremely handy lens and that allows you to be ready to shoot immediately and discreetly. Excellent to take with you on excursions not purely photographic, or in everyday tours; with this objective the room looks great even in a jacket pocket. It is also found on the second-hand market at an attractive price. A moment of attention to the orientation of the camera during shooting to avoid excessive distortion of the image (as indeed with all wide angles), then it does more or less everything by itself. The size of the accessories is 49 mm, which allows you to use filters and cap covers of the other Sony lenses that "usually" are part of the basic kit, type 18-22, 55-210 etc.)

Pros: Small, lightweight

Cons: Distortion, noticeable especially with the Ultra Wide Converter Adapter

Opinion: Good sharpness in the center at full aperture but to F / 5.6 at its best; the sharpness of the edges is poor but also improves to F / 5.6. I personally use it with the adapter Sony Ultra Wide Converter to push me up to 12mm. Mounted on my sony a6000 it gives a sense of solidity and compactness. The qualitàprezzo ratio is excellent.

Pros: The dimensions but above all the possibility of being able to be coupled to the converter Ultra Wide Converter Sony.

Cons: A little bit of image distortion at the sides (coupled to the drive) ... but the quality / price ratio is really good!

Opinion: 16mm f2.8 fixed lens (which is a 24 equivalent) purchased in kit with the Sony NEX 5.rnIo use it always coupled to the converter Sony Ultra Wide Converter, which is cheap (in 2011 it cost just over 100 €) and in any case allows you to push the lens from 16mm to 12mm (which is equivalent to a 18, then already quite wide, not spintissimo ok, but not trivial!). rnBisogna obviously contentment, meaning that the sides we see a little bit of image distortion and sharpness in the image even though it is almost never 100% perfect, but as overall ratio quality / price I would say that we are!

Pros: Lightweight, minimum size, fits in your pocket, the construction is of good quality and the sense of solidity as well. I would say excellent optical quality .. see the pictures posted helps a lot to understand the pros and cons ... if there are. The price is certainly lower the performance!

Cons: Distortion in accordance with the focal length (24 mm), for large hands may be too small (less than an adapter ring), you risk losing it in the bag.

Opinion: The Sony E 16mm f/2.8 I bought it together with the OSS zoom E 18-55mm f/3.5: 5.6 with Sony Nex-5 and, when it is mounted without a hood, the car seems there is the optics, but there 'and is doing very well! I've seen pictures taken with the Nex-7 and I must say that looks good even with the 24.0Mp sensor. I would say in conclusion that the accquisto is valuable!
