E 20mm F2.8 overview

The Sony E 20mm F2.8 is a 20mm f/2.8 prime for APS-C cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Sony in January 2013. 11 cameras we track take it without an adapter.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits travel. It is a weaker pick for rain and dust as well as close-ups.

No store we track in Singapore lists it today. It is listed in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe and Australia.

Worth comparing it with the Viltrox AF 23mm F1.4, Tokina atx-m 23mm F1.4 and Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary.
