Sony - FE 12-24mm F4 G Wide-Angle Zoom Lens (SEL1224G),Black

Best wide angle for real estate photography, agents love the way it makes rooms look large.

I have always lusted after a really good wide angle lens and on changing my Nikon kit recently to the Sony A7 iv, was wanting a wide angle as I am doing more landscape and with a trip to the Arctic upcoming. I tested a number of wide angle options and the 16mm, 18mm, 200mm, just did not quite do it. The 12mm at the bottom end of the range is incredible. I have regularly wanted to photograph landscape and building when I simply cannot get far enough back, this lens does it. Also for wide landscape it works well.

Coming I from nikon, this replaces my old sigma 8-16mm - its fast enough for extreme sports and street/architecture and feels a lot more professional than others, not so much distortion and the verticals aren't a problem, can suck for lens flate, but its a super wide so more my problem for not checking for it, especially when using flash.

I bought this lens for taking picture's in museums and other areas where it's useful to be able to take a closeup of something or to encompass the whole item at very close range. This lens is a fantastic addition to my collection and expands my capabilities of taking shots both indoors and outside, a very worthwhile investment.

I have used this daily for a month now. It is light, compact, extremely sharp with only minor fall off towards the far edges - and a joy to use.

Possibly my favourite lens!! It is well made, robust and produces excellent results in some challenging situations.

I've had this lens for one month. Works well up close. Works well in low light. I've taken handheld pictures after dark. Focuses fast and precise. Not too heavy to lug around all day. I usually hand carry my camera, and even when hanging from its leash, it doesn't feel too heavy. It allows you to take pictures of entire structures, even when you're in a tight spot. You can photograph people from head to toe from just a few feet away and take portraits from just inches. You need to have the budget to buy this lens, but if you can afford it, it's worth it.

I bought this for a photographic travel holiday in Asia and, with the 24 - 70mm +70 - 200mm it gives a full range of focal lengths in three lenses. It is light and sharp.

The weather has been so awful that I’ve not had many chances to use on my intended subject - landscapes. But I have been amazed at how useful it is to go this wide indoors with groups of people. Crisp!

Had this lens for more than a year now and it replaced the Canon 11-24mm f4 Canon. I just lost 1 mm in the wide angle side but gained in reduced size and weight. Surprised about the quality for night photography at 12 mm, f 4, 30 seconds and ISO 4000 with tripod. Stars showed not noticeable comma of at the edge of the frame using Sony a&RIII.

I’ve had the lens about two months now and I’m very please with the photographic results.

I have had this lens for several months and I love it. It's super wide and you can use it for many kinds of photography. It has very little distortion at 12mm, but most surprisingly, you can use it up close. The specs say that its minimal focus distance is just under 12 inches, but I found that you can use it down to about 5 inches and still get a very clear image. It's almost a macro at this distance. The only drawback so far is that the auto focus struggles in low light. That's not unexpected, but it is a bit tricky to overcome. I suggest that if you are new to a super wide lens, you should experiment with shooting close up to some of your favorite subjects. This style of shooting will draw a lot of character out of faces and objects that appear flat with other lenses. Also, ask for advice from more experienced photographers and you will get a lot more enjoyment out of this wonderful lens.

Awesome edge to edge clarity. Outstanding landscape pictures

I am very please with the performance of this lens and with its relatively light weight. It allows me to carry two lenses on long trips which was problematic previously. However, I received a non US version. So, beware.

Had this Len for bout 2 months all i can tell you is......it is wide catch detail like no other lens . check out my gallery on Instagram @trapboifuse

Great product Most commonly used lens for my shoots

This lens is enormous and weighs a ton. Can't complain about what it does though. Takes mighty nice photos. Just be aware that it's big & heavy.

It is the choice if you want the widest native lens for your sony. It has some flare, but its ok...

Purchased 2 weeks ago at a superb price and the lens hasn't been taken of my A7III since.

The ultra wide angle FE 12-24mm lens is great for architecture, real estate or landscape photography, where a faster apeature may not be enssential. The lens produces sharp/contrasty images with minimal distrotion (when corrected in post) The AF is fast and acurate and is of the silent type with no noise when motor is working. Slightly pricy but it's the one of the few (or maybe the only) native lens option that you'll have for 12mm coverage.
