This model is joined by the and which all are optically and physically similar.
The advanced optics are designed with cutting edge technology and boast exceptionally high rendering performance as well as edge to edge sharpness. Image quality is consistently high due to the addition of low dispersion elements as well as aspherical GM elements. Distortion is also minimal, and in-camera correction reduces this even further.
All three lenses are designed with a common 67mm filter thread, which allows similarly well-priced filters to be added as required. These may include circular polarisers and neutral density filters for example. The option to focus as close as 12cm at 2:1 magnification sets this lens apart from other wide angle models. Images and movies can now be composed at extremely close range, with more exaggerated and dramatic perspectives.

The 24mm prime is short at 6.3cm and weighs in at just 215g. making an ultra-compact and lightweight model, small enough to bring anywhere. This compliments Sony full-frame compact mirrorless bodies perfectly, providing a well balanced pairing.
