G Lenses for full-frame cameras.
The Lens is a compact, lightweight, ultra-wide prime lens - the widest-angle full-frame lens in the FE mount range. It ensures excellent G Lens resolution while providing beautiful bokeh. This allows photographers and videographers to capture stunning landscape and night sky shots as well as impressive videos.
Outstanding shooting quality in a compact design
The intelligent lens design incorporates two AA (Advanced Aspherical) elements and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements to effectively suppress chromatic aberrations and ensure high shooting quality throughout the image area even at the maximum aperture of F1.8. The Lens offers excellent close-up performance with a minimum focus distance of 0.19 meters (maximum magnification: 0.2x) and delivers impressive background blur effects.
Its compact design and versatility make the FE 20 Milimeter F1.8 G the perfect all-rounder. Thanks to its small size and light weight of just 373 grams, it is exceptionally portable. Combined with a compact Sony E-mount camera, the result is a well-balanced system that is ideal for use with gimbal or accessory grips.
In addition, the two XD (extremely dynamic) linear motors enable fast, precise and quiet focusing for both photo and video shooting.
The FE 20 millimeter F1.8 G is dust and moisture resistant and coated with fluorine on the front element. It is equipped with an adjustable focus hold button and an aperture ring with ON/OFF click switch. It is also compatible with a wide range of 67-millimeter filters, opening up even more creative possibilities.
"When developing new lenses, one of the main pillars of our strategy is to be responsive to our customers' needs. Many landscape photographers using our E-mount system have asked for a fast ultra-wide-angle prime lens that is particularly lightweight and versatile," said Yann Salmon Legagneur, Director of Product Marketing, Digital Imaging, Sony Europe. "We think the new SEL-20F18G hits the mark with its combination of excellent image quality, portability, superior AF performance and affordable price. It is also suitable for video shooting with full-frame and APS-C cameras, making it an important addition to our lens lineup."
Compact 20mm F1.8 Fixed Focal Length Lens
This wide-angle fixed focal length lens with a maximum aperture of F1.8 offers impressive resolution right to the edge of the frame thanks to Sony's latest optical technology. E-mount bodies transform this compact Lens into a versatile, reliable mobile system with outstanding AF performance for a wide range of needs.
20-mm perspectives, outstanding resolution at F1.8
Two AA (Advanced Aspherical) elements in an innovative optical design reduce aberrations and provide outstanding resolution to the edge of the frame even at the widest F1.8 aperture.
Compact and lightweight for enhanced portability and handling
Advanced optical design with two AA elements meets optimized mechanics in this G Lens that weighs only 373 grams. Working with compact E-mount bodies and offering enhanced mobility, the FE 20mm F1.8 G provides a balanced system that is ideal for use with camera mounts and accessory grips, as well as a wide variety of video and photo shooting situations.
Smooth, Natural Bokeh Effect
In addition to precise control of spherical aberration, which plays an important role in bokeh quality, the FE 20 mm F1.8 G's 9-blade circular aperture also contributes to the G series' signature smooth bokeh and natural highlights.
Realistically reproduced point sources
Two AA (Advanced Aspherical) elements and three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements reduce sagittal reflections so point light sources are accurately reproduced without color aberration.
XD linear motors for AF speed and precise tracking
Two XD (eXtreme Dynamic) linear motors harness the potential of today's high-speed camera bodies to enable fast, precise focusing and tracking of even fast-moving subjects. New algorithms provide smooth, lag-free control of the Lens's large focus group and responsive, low-vibration autofocus.
Excellent close-ups, even for selfies
20mm is an excellent focal length for selfies. In addition, the minimum focus distance of the Lens is only 0.19 meters in AF mode, and as little as 0.18 meters in manual focus. The Lens is ideal for use with camera mounts or grips - whether for selfies or other subjects.
Precise, reliable controls
The controls such as the focus hold button, focus adjustment switch and aperture ring are conveniently positioned. If required, additional functions can be assigned to the focus hold button via the camera menu settings. To protect against water and dirt, the front lens element has a fluorine coating. The dust- and splash-resistant design1 ensures the necessary reliability in challenging outdoor conditions.
