Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars by 3 users at B&H Photo Video

"The Sigma 20mm f1.8 is very good lens that captures bright and clear images under low light. The price point is a plus. I was amazed at the clarity and the nuance the lens allowed me to capture."

"Excellent lens for wide angle pictures! I use it on a Sony Alpha 900. Takes great pictures and is easy to attach and remove."

"The autofocus is a little slow and the lens a little heavy, but it do not affect the handling."
