I would buy this product again.
This product is terrific, especially compared to my Escort Redline. It is so much quieter and has so many options to block out false positives and the associated noise alerts. In addition, I prefer to have the "situational awareness" with the arrows and displays... versus the R3. It's a lot of money, but I think the feature set is rich compared to other radar detectors on the market.

Defect?
I just took delivery of this lens and have not used it yet so I cannot verify performance. But I am questioning the construction. When I hold the lens horizontally and gently rock it back and forth, I can feel a weight shift from end to end stopping with a gentle thud on each end. It is hard to tell but the distance of travel could be a cm or so. The construction does not feel tight; all my other Sony lenses over the year (about 8) have all felt rock solid. Is this lens defective? I will test out the optics and focus performance this weekend.

    Impressive Prime for Astro
    This was recommended to me by several people for astrophotography and it does not disappoint. Its 1.8 aperture allows so much light and makes focusing on stars so much easier. Very little coma.

    Outstanding images
    I've been using his about a month now and am very impressed. I was looking for a multipurpose wide angle for Astro photography that would also be useful for landscape and am very happy with this lens. 20mm is a good sweet spot between the ultra wide 14 and the somewhat 24mm. This lens does outperform the 24mm gm in terms of sharpness. Distortion is minimal, handles flare very well and little to no fringing. Perfect lens for 2 prime lens backcountry travel. This and the 55 1.8 is an extremely lightweight and compact combo.

    Excellent lens!
    I bought this lens last year after acquiring the my A7C. The 20mm f1.8 is outstanding particular for indoor limited light use. I personally dislike using flashes under any circumstances as it proves difficult to adjust (for me) even in post. This lens gives me the freedom to use it for limited light situations and still achieve great results.

    Awesome lens!
    Wildlife shooter looking to branch out to other forms of photography. After much research I went with this lens and so far I'm really pleased with it.
