This lens is so good because it’s tiny, weighs nothing (under 100gm). And it’s full frame! You hardly know it’s there, it is the perfect travel lens. I use it with a Sony A7R II, and I'm finding (only had it a couple of months or so) that it’s not being a zoom lens is actually a plus. With the camera providing 42 megapixels (and full frame), you have loads of scope for digital cropping afterwards, while still ending up with high quality shots of 15-20 megapixels. It makes it the ultimate point and shoot – no need to worry about getting the framing exactly right as you look at a scene. Just take the pic! Having used zoom lenses for decades, pretty much exclusively,

This lens is a bit of a miracle, a 24mm full frame lens that weighs only 95g and is tiny. I use it on an original Sony a7, so only 24 MP, and use it only for landscape, so I can’t say how good it might be for street photography etc.It takes quite a bit of work to get the best from this lens, but it repays the effort. I’ve found that by stopping down to about f/11, and manually focusing at about 3-4 metres, I can get great sharpness from edge to edge, with just the very extreme corners a little bit smeary, and everything in focus from 3ft to infinity.

This lens is excellent!Measure your expectations, its not super sharp like the big brand equivalents and "only" a 2.8 lens but image quality is actually very good. Colour is great, AF is snappy an unlike another reviewer here I have found it to be really reliable locking on and eye AF is also supported well.Ultimately its the size and insane light weight that make it such a gem, you can literally carry it anywhere, pop it on and let the fun begin. And it is fun!!!I never thought I would use this focal length much, I am naturally suited to 35/50 but have really found an opening mostly due to this lens being so amazingly small it allows me to take my camera everywhere without drawing attention.
