Pros: General performance, size, weight, price

Cons: I would have liked it to be tropicalized

Opinion: I have owned this 28mm for 3 years now and for at least two years it has been the everyday lens for my street photography. I can say that I had a very good feeling with this lens right away. Combined with the A7s he created a really good, accurate and efficient tool for me. As well as discreet and portable. For a few months I also own the A7s2 and the A7r2 and this 28mm continues to amaze me even on these two machine bodies. I have to admit, with the A7r2 sensor, it's a little bit on the edge. Limit, however, that is only noticeable in certain situations. That is, at full opening and at the minimum distance of maf. Just close to f2.8 and it's perfect or just stay at least 50cm from the subject. I do practically only street and therefore the occasions when I happen to be less than half a meter from the subject are really few. At full opening, making portraits where only head and shoulders are framed, he manages to give interesting and effective blurry. The colors, contrast and 3D that gives are reminiscent of much more expensive and ephaly ephaly lenses. The af is quiet, fast and precise. I'm a little bit ad f2 but it's not a drama for me. Indeed! However vignette and distortions are easily removable in pp. So, in summary, the size, the weight, the fovale, the performance make it practically perfect for use of street and reportage. The price then is the icing on the cake. The build quality is not like that of G's or GMs but it is obviously understandable given the cost of both! Had it been entirely theopicalized it would have been (for me) just perfect. I can still say that I scrambled enough for more than two years in hot, humid conditions, incredible dust and even under the snow and in temperatures of -20 and I have never experienced any malfunction. In short, if the street, the reportage, the travel photography is your sector then you can not not have it with you. You're going to have a hard time getting him out of the car. Super recommended. Rating 9.5

Pros: Price, weight, size, sharpness, AF,

Cons: Distortion, absence of MF switch, absence button assignable.

Opinion: The value of this lens is to have an excellent quality and bright (f2.0) in really minimal size and weight. It is built well, it is internal focus so it has no external parts that move/stretch. It is fully usable at full opening and also with a good blur. It has no particular problems with chromatic aberrations, flares, vignettes. Great and saturated colors, reminds me of the zeiss/contax 28 f2.8 in this. The AF is fast, quiet and precise. Sharpness in the center very good at full opening, I would say excellent from f2.5 onwards. At the edges very good from f5.6-8. (if not, it would not be a perfect specimen). Focus on edges, not center. The only real flaw is a distortion a bit high to be a 28mm, it corrects itself without problems, but it costs something in terms of resolution and mm of focal; in C1 there is a trick to remedy. It would have been nice to have MF switches and button on the barrel, like the 85mm 1.8. Lens for me multipurpose, from reportage on the go, to portraits set, landscapes, street. Certainly recommended for the Sony E system.

Pros: Excellent sharpness, resistance to backlight, blurred and tonality. Minimum dimensions

Cons: None, perhaps the fact that distortion changes as the focus plane changes

Opinion: I compared it with the Nikkor 24-120 f / 4 VR on D600, set to 28mm. Nikon's zoom is optimized at low focal lengths, and has a higher yield than many vintage fixed wide-angle lenses. At f / 4, Sony outperforms the whole frame. The difference is reduced by stopping at f / 5.6, up to canceling at f / 8. Not only that, at f / 2 the Sony has a sharpness comparable to the Nikon af / 4. Even against the backlight Sony behaves better, despite the Nikon is already excellent. Add a nice blur, contrast and bright colors, and small size, I would say that it is a fixed wide-angle serious, without weaknesses in performance. The only flaw, on Capture one for Sony the distortion is not completely correct when the focus is close. Rated 10

Pros: Virtually everything for the kind of photographic that I use

Cons: I could only say that it was not tropicalized

Opinion: This 28mm is the only autofocus I have for the Sony system and therefore I can not make comparisons of reactivity and accuracy with other Sony material. I can still say that the AF of this lens, coupled with my A7s, is still responsive and fast hooks even under really unfavorable light conditions. I only notice a small negative side, namely the fact that every once in a while (once a dozen ) the focus is not perfect. I repeat that the percentage of photos that are out of focus is really low. Not more than one in ten. In addition, I do not know if this is to be imputed to the lens or machine. Having no other AF lenses for my A7s I can not test it. The same problem I had when I used my Xpro2 at 36 f2. A photo of ten was out of focus. That 35 on the XT2 worked perfectly always and the Xpro2 was always perfect with the other fuji lenses I had. Probably it was a talk of very slight and sporadic incompatibility as maybe it is now with this 28 and the A7s.rnOctually I feel like it is; perfect for what I do. Sharpen at any opening. Colors as they like to me are interesting contrasts. In the past, it's small and light. It hesitates a little bit on the lens (at least in my case) .nnDate the optical qualities, size, weight and focal length to be perfect for my purposes. In Italy it is less than 400 € and it seems to me to be an added value to this very interesting lense! RnStronged to street street and reportage with any Sony A7! RnMax

Pros: sharpness, diameter of filters, compactness.

Cons: Distortion

Opinion: Lens in my opinion outstanding as sharpness and resolution. It can also be used for open-aperture portraits. With closed aperture is a blade with astonishing sharpness. Excellent the dimeter of only 49mm, very suitable for mirrorless philosophy. Remarkable distortion for a 28mm but it pulls away with a camera raw click, so for me a relative problem. Also excellent for the nocturnal astrophotography of the Milky Way. I'm still fully satisfied.

Pros: sharpness, lightness, autofocus, weight, size

Cons: distortion

Opinion: The goal comes with excellent sharpness from F2.5 onwards. The size and weight are very small with a diameter 49mm.il aluminum barrel filters gives sturdiness and solidity (like the Zeiss Sonnar 55mm) with the absence of the ferrules games. Fast silent and precise autofocus great for sore street.rnL'unica is the distortion that for a 28mm seems too pronounced. highly recommended anyway

Pros: Lightweight, quiet af, fast and above all internal components without protruding from the barrel, f2, excellent yield General

Cons: obvious distortion but correctable in a click

Opinion: I use it with satisfaction for a couple of months with the 90mm f2.8 macro Sony and the new 50mm f1.8 for Sony wedding reportage and 28 is a perfect focal length for this style! RNE able to give truly unique shots! In conclusion it is a perspective that once bought is no longer sold in my opinion for what it returns is a must have!

Pros: Sharpness and contrast, yield neutral

Cons: The axial aberrazzioni green are also visible closing a po'.rn

Opinion: The use of APSC (a6000) .rnParagonandolo 35 1.8 sony apscrnLa made in detail is already good even at room temperature (35 1.8 Sony's first stop is visibly softer) and is slightly higher to the point of distortion without diffrazionernLa correction of equipment there and you see it on a reduced size is accettabile.rnCome colors compared to 35 sony is more neutral, the reds are less loads) .rnLe sizes are good, although it is a lens for full frame, it has about the same size as 35 1.8 Sony weighing a bit of più.rnLe aberrations are not excessive and to remove, even if those behind the axial plane of focus (green / cyan) tend to remain more closing diaframma.rnLo blurred depends on scene and taste, say is evidenced by the above aberrations. rnCome cost is equal to 1.8 Sony 35mm, making it an alternative to valutare.rn

Pros: Sharpness, excellent colors, precise autofocus, lightness, quality, price

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: Lens wonderful travel and nn only on A7r makes great with really good color and sharpness. Suitable for photos urban night, even when you need a rest of convenience, as the handrail of a bridge or a column improvised. A report quality / price very attractive. Bought hastily before leaving for London, and for the focal adore both for lightness, I can say that has earned a special place in my goals.

Pros: Lightness, size, build quality

Cons: Excessive distortion

Opinion: Overall a very good lens with an affordable price. Excellent sharpness, even at full aperture, and blurred very soft and pleasant to see. Also good color rendering. Unfortunately has a distortion a bit 'too much for a 28mm lens and, although you can easily correct it in post production (in recent versions of Camera Raw's profile pre loaded this goal and you can make an automatic correction so fast) The thing however a little 'annoyance. In conclusion it is still a goal with a quality / price ratio very good, with size and weight contained, in line with the philosophy of a mirrorless system.

Pros: Size and construction, sharpness, good blurred at maximum aperture

Cons: Excessive distortion, easily corrected in post.

Opinion: An optical Sony FE unmarked zeiss good standard, compact size, robust and with a very good price (paid 392 euro with new costs) rnPur not a project as extreme openness gives a good sharpness which is required with a blurred very pleasant and morbido.rna7 and 28, lightness and exceptional comfort, a whole other world. If I have to find fault x force say front cap, gives the impression of being fragilino and built a little approsimativa.
