4.0 out of 5 stars Good as long as your expectations are reasonable
This is a large lens that will not degrade your image horribly, but some glare and chromatic aberration is obvious. It will help get that wider shots indoors, but you should expect lower contrast, less sharpness and some colored outlines, specially at the edges.
I tried some cheaper ($40) Kenko at a store, those were REALLY unusable. Sony's is a decent quality one,...

3.0 out of 5 stars Not that wide
Nice quality lens, but doesn't add a huge amount of "wide angle" to your pics/videos. The best thing about it though is that it doesn't add the black edges around your footage/pics that some wide angle lens can.
