Sony 16mm f/2.8
Just loved the final sentence of this description of a lens being advertised on eBay:
The NEX 16mm F/2.8 is a pancake-type design, which means a compact size with a budget price, and not necessarily an optical masterpiece. Design considerations more than likely were small size, low cost, and a platform for a fish-eye and super-wide converter.
Fit and finish are very good. The lens appears to be clad in metal, and has a metal mount, but is extremely light-weight and almost seems like it could be a mock-up, with no glass or internals.
Buy it now for £106!!
