Sony E Mount 20mm f2.8 Pancake Lens

The Sony E20mm f2.8 Pancake Lens is designed to fit Sony’s mirrorless NEX range of cameras with E-mount. This wide-angle, prime lens with a fixed focal length offers a fast aperture of f2.8 lens and is easily transportable covering a host of photographic topics. This compact, travel lens is great for shooting landscapes at dusk and is suitable for gig shots and night photography where a large aperture is required. An easy-grip ring on the lens barrel helps you control whether your subject is sharply in focus or blurred against the background.   

Key Features

With its pancake design, the lens only extends 0.8" from the mount, resulting in a compact and lightweight camera system.

Optimized for APS-C-format cameras, this compact 20mm lens offers a wide-angle 30mm equivalent focal length.

The fast f/2.8 maximum aperture permits operation in less-than-ideal lighting situations and allows photographers to capture images with shallow depth of field.

Three aspherical elements are incorporated in the lens design to reduce astigmatism, field curvature, coma, and other monochromatic aberrations.

The lens uses a rear focusing design that contributes to faster autofocus performance as well as a minimum focus distance of 7.9".

Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality when employing selective focus techniques.
