7Artisans 10mm F3.5 Ultra Wide Angle APS-C Mirrorless Cameras 10mm
55 out of 100 low confidence 9 reviews
This ultra-wide pancake lens offers great value and a unique aesthetic for the price, but it has significant flaws. Users report mounting issues on Sony cameras, severe vignetting with filters, and soft corners even when stopped down. It's best suited for casual use in bright light with a forgiving attitude.

Cons
- Mounting issues on Sony cameras
