Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G
The Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G is one of the smallest full-frame lenses available for Sony mirrorless cameras, weighing just 162 grams (0.36 pounds) and measuring a mere 4.5 cm (1.8 inches) long.- Very small, light, and portable, Excellent build quality with weather sealing, a metal lens mount, and no external moving parts, Surprisingly good handling features for such a small lens, including a function button and a clickable/de-clickable aperture ring, Minimal chromatic aberration, Good flare...
- Very high distortion that requires extensive corrections, High vignetting that doesn’t go away even at narrow apertures, Relatively weak corner sharpness, Higher price than most wide-angle muffin lenses (though this is likely due to the better build quality)

Good value in an excellent lens F2.8 already gives plenty of depth of field
Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G Lens for Sony - BRAND NEW review
The 24mm focal length is often seen as ‘classic’ for landscape and architectural photography and the small size, light weight and weather-resistance of the 24mm f/2.8 G will make it a good ‘take everywhere’ lens.
Excellent Prime Sony Lens
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been very pleased with my new Sony lens. The autofocus is quick and smooth. Pictures are crisp and sharp. The size of the lens is also good. It is nice and compact and fits in my bag with my other equipment. I also like the feature of being able to easily switch between manual and auto focus modes with ease. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone looking to upgrade from their own standard lenses to this prime lens.
Amazing quality from a compact lens!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first, non G-Master lens from Sony. I was thrilled to try out the lens and was pleasantly surprised by the amazing picture quality from such a small lens! It is the perfect lens for capturing images on the go. A must have for anyone who is traveling or likes to carry around a versatile lightweight setup. I now reach for this setup over my iPhone!
excellent quality camera
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have always loved taking pictures but i always settled for cheap cameras because it was just a hobby and I did not think it was worth the investment to dish out so much money for something i may lose interest in, but i finally decided to take the plunge for a new Sony lens and I am so glad I did. This made the pictures I took so crisp and high quality and I wish I had made the commitment earlier. It is so lightweight and I love that it has settings built right into it for easy access. My favorite feature other than the portability was that it focused on the object i was taking a picture of so fast, almost instantly. If i had to pick anything bad it would be that i did have a slightly harder time doing that when it was not as bright. I received this product at a discounted price in exchange for my honest opinion.
So Far, So Good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Although small / lightweight, this lens is solidly built and features great manual controls (aperture ring, focus ring, etc.). The body seems rock solid and it is a fun and easy lens to use for everyday photography. Although designed for a full-frame sensor, I am using this lens on a Sony A6000 (APS-C), and it’s performed great so far. Sharpness is good and the bokeh is nice and smooth. Though I haven’t shot with it much yet, I can see this becoming one of my go-to lenses when I just want to get out with the camera and not haul a bunch of gear around. The lens is somewhat pricey, and there are obviously similarly positioned 3rd-party lenses that can be had for a bit less, but this little lens checks a lot of boxes optically in a lightweight, easy-to-handle package. **I purchased this product at a discounted price, in exchange for my honest appraisal of its performance.**
Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G Lens for Sony - BRAND NEW review
What a delight to have such a light and compact lens that handles superbly and delivers excellent sharpness both centre and edge. 24mm is such a useful wide-angle and it is quite surprising that there are so few prime lenses of this focal length currently on the market.
Good for video and compact size
This lens is good for photo and video and compact size. In the future we hope to get better with f1.4
Sony FE 24mm f/2.8 G Lens for Sony - BRAND NEW review
At last, there are some more compact lenses to complement Sony’s petite cameras. And despite its small size, the Sony FE 24mm F2.8 G delivers impressive image quality with excellent sharpness across the frame.- Compact and lightweight, Aperture ring, Weather-sealed
- No stabilisation, Maximum aperture '
- just'
- f/2.8, Obvious barrel distortion without the in-camera or raw file correction profiles
