Highlights
Quality
An excellent additional lens, tried out and very pleased with the results.
My only bad comment on this lens is that it does have a huge distortion but with the likes of lightroom this can easily be sorted out.
Paired up with the sony a6000 it delivers great image quality.
It needs software correction for a straight-line rendering but starts off so sharp this has little effect on quality.
Price
Price is sensible and on par with other prime offerings from sony.
Packaging/appearance
8 as well, but this 28 is the one that always gets pulled out of the bag.

I shoot mostly landscape and so have this camera at f8 or f11 most of the time
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The lens has one downside however which is distortion
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
For landscape this doesnt usually show up though you have to be careful if you have a horizon in the shot as this could easily come out noticeably curved especially at the edges
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The jpegs correct for the distortion and there are also correction profiles on lightroom
