Sony's most affordable general purpose PrimeSony SAL-28F28 28mm f/2.8 Wide Angle Lens for Sony Alpha Digital SLR Camera is currently the most affordable "prime" lens offered by Sony, and in Sony's top 4 most affordable lenses in its lineup.

I use this on my alpha 850. I like its low weight and small size. But in pixel peeping it's not that sharp outside of the center even stopped down and has too much chromatic aberration (although that can largely be fixed with software).

Low Cost, Reliable, small & light

Image quality not up to high megapixel cameras

With all respect to bigger brothers of SAL F28 /F/2.8 ,- this eye has undoubltly the best money/q rate in my opinion. lightweight, laconic, strong character inborn from SONY, - thats it-28/F/28.

The Sony FE 28mm F2 isn't an optically perfect lens like some others available for the Alpha 7 family, but at its price point, we didn't expect it to go toe-to-toe with Zeiss-branded offerings.

Compact; Inexpensive; Wide aperture; Wide-angle field of view; Dust- and splash-resistant design; Add-on conversion lenses available

Limited close focus; Soft edges at wide apertures; Loads of distortion when shooting Raw; Omits optical stabilization

The Sony FE 28mm f/2 is a compact wide angle lens for full-frame E-mount compatible Sony cameras that sports a fast f/2 maximum aperture, a dust and moisture resistant design and a linear motor for silent autofocus during video recording. In this review, we'll take a look at how it performs.

This lens is sooooo light and small, only about 200 grams!! One of the best bangs for the buck on the Sony system, imo. And at F/2, youre able to capture pretty sharp and low noise pictures. Great for street and hiking photography. It packs tons of bang for the price. 28mm is pretty wide.

I LOOOOVE this lens! I needed a wide-angle prime lens for quite some time now but put it off thinking I needed to dish out several thousand dollars for a decent one. Picked up this lens on a whim just to see what it was like and ended up falling in love. Super light, compact and durable.

For the money this is a great little lens. IQ is as good as your going to get for the price, primarily use this at night for long exposure and very happy with the results. It dose suffer from barrel distortion (well documented) but this is nothing to worry about as its fixed with lens profile...

Lightweight

The product is listed as new. The box was opened and there were fingerprints on the lens glass. The lens is working fine but I am not very happy to start to clean a brand new lens!

This is the first lens I bought for my A7ii and I am very, very pleased with them both. The lens is very quick to focus the images are very sharp. The wide F2 gives me great control over focus. I really love the 28mm focal length.
