Product details
The Viltrox AF 20 / 2.8 FE is an autofocus lens designed for Sony E-Mount camera models. With 10 elements in 8 groups, it offers excellent optical performance. The minimum focusing distance of 0.19 m allows for beautiful close-ups. The quiet STM focus motor can precisely control the movement position, ensuring accurate and smooth focusing.
Compact, tiny, and portable. The AF 20 / 2.8 FE is the ideal choice for vloggers who are constantly on the go. Thanks to its compact size, it is easy to transport and perfect for outdoor or travel vlogging.
Efficient and reliable autofocus. The built-in STM stepping motor provides the high driving force necessary for precise autofocus and tracking, while also supporting eye autofocus, better response times, lower latency, and reduced vibrations.
Strong recording performance. The AF 20 / 2.8 FE features comprehensive and reliable video recording functions and supports IBIS. It is lightweight and compact, has low distortion, and minimal breathing effect. The large aperture of F/2.8 offers a beautiful bokeh effect and creates a deeper expression of the image with an extremely shallow depth of field.
Wide-angle lens. The wide-angle lens is characterized by an expanded field of view that surpasses that of the human eye. It differs from standard lenses due to its shorter focal length. This shorter focal length increases the field of view, making subjects appear smaller and allowing more to be captured in the photo. Additionally, the wide-angle lens creates a noticeable effect of spatial depth—objects in the distance appear even further away, giving your images a striking sense of depth.

Overall ratingVery good98/100
Very good98/100
- For the 149 euros, the Viltrox lens offers excellent value for money, giving virtually any user the opportunity for ultra-wide-angle photos
- The autofocus could work a little faster and the overall resolution could be higher, but such shortcomings are easy to overlook in view of the price
With its low price, the new ultra-wide-angle lens offers an unbeatably favourable entry into a new world of motifs. The minor weaknesses are acceptable. It is a practical extension that could find its place in all photo bags with Sony full-frame cameras.
