  • Quite the nice lens
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
This lens is available for both 4/3 and Sony Nex mount cameras. It is an updated version of the very well regarded original Sigma 19mm. These new versions are called "Art" lenses and there is even a little chrome Art emblem on the barrel to signify this. The other visual clue is that the focusing ring is now smooth rather than serrated. I think it looks sort of clean and modern. In practice manual focusing takes only a tiny bit of a turn, and there is little resistance, so even if your hands are covered in Mobile 1, it does not present a problem to use. And, speaking of the ring, one of the complaints about the original version was that the ring felt flimsy and if you gripped it at all it would distort and bind, a cheap feeling for sure. The hidden part of the update is a more robust use of materials and construction. The ring will flex if you give it a grunt, it does not have that Leica hydraulic smoothness to it, but it is fine and not cheap feeling at all. Sigma has decided to emphasize quality design and construction, to move up and away from its sort of low-end reputation. Amazingly, It is actually Made in Japan by a family owned company. Sigma tests each and every one of these Art lenses, not just one out of a batch. This verifies that each copy will not be one of the "bad" ones that people often seem to think they have, no matter which brand. Their website is interesting and discusses this change of focus (!) It is a company worth watching now. The lens hood reverses for storage, but that feature doesn't save much space. What Sigma has not evidently done is to actually change the optical design of the lens. People debate this, but Sigma has evidently not yet made any claims about improved optical performance. Perhaps the assembly controls are tighter, the lens elements perhaps being held to tighter tolerances, maybe an improved coating...that sort of thing. So, in the end the best lens of either design may be equal, but all the the new Art lenses are superior to some of of the earlier ones. Some people will have a better lens than what they had before, but some will not. It just decreased the chances of getting a bad example. And the new one should last longer and have a higher quality feel to it. Worth the non-discounted price of the Arts to me. It focuses automatically and works on a Nex just as a Sony lens would, but it does not have optical stabilization, less necessary on short lenses than on long ones anyway. There is a floating lens assembly that will rattle if you shake the lens. This is a matter of design, not a fault. The 19mm, along with the similar design 30mm, has received many great reviews for the optical performance. My lens tests are pretty much backyard comparisons, but clearly this lens is sharp and it carries its acuity quite a ways out from the center, where all lenses are pretty good these days. The corners are not as good, but so vastly better than the often derided Sony 16mm. It is just a far better lens. There has been a lot of discussion about using wide angle lenses on the Nex-7, the flagship Nex with 24mps. The high mp count, among other things, makes it more difficult to use wide angle on this model than on the more entry level Nex's. There are color aberrations in the corners and also various distortions and vignetting when using wide angles on the 7, even when Leica and other high end wides are adapted. What Sony has done, and this is the trend, is to build in corrections within the camera that take into account the problems a lens might have at the extremes and take care of them in-camera. The cameral can then be thought of as simply an element of a lens, not separable if the best performance is to be expected. This requires shooting in the JPEG format and when you do the results are generally pretty good. You still get some of that purple fringing out in the corners on dark silhouetted subjects, like tree branches for example, that can be seen when you enlarge the images way on up, but it is not noticeable in most cases and is clearly an improvement, makes the lens very useful even for us Nex-7 devotees. If you shoot in RAW, the aberrations will be far more apparent and you will have to use imaging correction programs to remove it in post production. Now, this is not so awful as you are probably going to adjust other aspects of the photo any way and many people already have such software and use it daily. Note that other lenses like Sony's 10-18 mm zoom, a very complex design, also depends on in-camera corrections and is by most accounts a very good lens when used in JPEG. It is easier for a tech giant like Sony to put ever increasing computer capabilities in their cameras in order to allow for good results from relatively affordable lenses. Certainly cheaper, although not as exciting, than making perfect $6000 lenses to fit on more basic cameras. I have taken a lot of photos with my new Art 19 and really do like it. I have found that the subject, time of day and lighting and distance and on and on makes it completely impossible for really give a definitive answer to every aspect of this len's capabilities. It is clearly far better in every way, except that last little bit of wideness, than the Sony 16 and I do not think using even exotic and vastly more expensive lenses will result in a noticeably superior image (although I would use them if I had them!). On a Nex this is a 28mm lens, not terribly wide but very useful for those of use who do not get into the extreme wide angles. While I think the Sony 10-18 is the better choice, many people prefer primes and this one performs very well, is light, not big and is very affordable. I gave it all the stars because the overall value and utility has not been matched. ... show more

  • Outstanding walking around lens for the e-mount platform
Color: Silver Style: Sony NEX E Mount
I have been using this lens as my walking-around lens on my NEX-7 for the past five weeks. It is a sweet little lens, feels a little more solid than my Sigma 30mm f2.8 EX DN (Sony E) but optical quality is similar. I don't care about lab results, all I can tell is that I am very pleased by the results I get out of it. The silver finish actually looks pretty cool on the NEX-7 because it matches the finish of the outside of the e-mount. It also has a proper raised dot as a mount index instead of just a marked line, so you can easily put the lens on without looking at the camera, all you do is make sure the raised dot is at 12 o'clock. The rattle when the lens is powered off is slightly lower than in the 30mm. Even with the hood (included) on, the lens basically feels nothing, which makes it awesome as a walking around lens. The only thing that messes with my head is that this lens is actually larger than my 30mm. This is the only lens pair that I have where the shorter focal length lens is the one with the longer barrel, I am guessing this is because both are the same diameter. Optical corrections are simple, the jpeg off the camera with auto corrections enabled look really close to what DxO Optics yields for this particular lens when processing from RAW. Overall I am really pleased, I would not hesitate to recommend this lens to anyone shooting e-mount and looking for an inexpensive wide lens (the 35mm equivalency is 28.5 mm). ... show more

  • Best Lens To Leave On Your A6000 (so far)
Color: Silver Style: Sony NEX E Mount
I am a huge fan of the 28mm (This lens equals 28mm in 35mm format) lens and since I started focusing on Street Photography it is rare that I use anything else. Looking at the choices Sony offered there is not much to get excited about so I finally decided to try this lens out even though reviews stated it was soft and it being only 2.8. The lightness and size makes this lens a joy to have on the a6000. Its not a pancake there really is none worth having yet in the 'E' family as of this review. Sony's 16 & 20 are just terrible and I would not recommend! I also enjoy the non rubberized focus ring which adds some class from other lenses and it also focuses very fast. Having no Optical Steady Shot (OSS) is a real disappointment. While not a "must have" at this focal length it really would of added to the enjoyment of this lens. Another miss for this lens is the slow 2.8 aperture. That's fine for zooms but this being a prime, it really needs the light gathering ability of a f/1.8 aperture. I know the smaller size of the lens compared to say the A-mount of the DSLR's play a part here but still, we've seen it done. If you have read any reviews online then you would of heard the lens is soft in the corners. I agree. Center is wonderful but it does drop a bit more than I would like towards the edges and I did notice some Vignetting in the corners that Light room removed in about 2 seconds so I have no problems with that All in all I think this is a really good lens especially at this price and I am really enjoying it. No, its not perfect but we need to remember its a two hundred dollar lens on a still very new format. I am unsure why Sigma would put the "A" on it. This lens is in no way up to say there Sigma 311205 50mm F1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Sony Alpha Cameras in quality or in price for that matter. For version 3 lets see 1.8 f-stop and OSS and a better corner sharpness. Then this lens would be about perfect. Oh, and a little deeper lens-hood be nice too. 7.5 out of 10 ... show more

  • Couldn’t be happier!!!
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
I bought this lens for my Sony A6000 for a trip to Iceland where I knew I would want to take much more wide angle outdoor photos. I have the Samyang 12mm and while it takes great photos, I don’t enjoy manual focus. I didn’t have huge expectations for this lens but I was blown away by the photos it took. Great color and super sharp. 90% of my 1,500 photos were taken with this lens. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for an inexpensive lens which takes fantastic photos!!!! ... show more

  • Great wide angle lens to add to your kit
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
Fantastic wide angle prime lens for the money. There are other wide angles for around the same price (some from Sony) but overall this lens from Sigma has much better IQ, both center and in the corners. There is still some vignetting and distortion, but can be corrected for in post (Lightroom). small, lightweight and compact, this is an ideal lens to have in your kit for those moments where you need a little more field of view. Be aware of the filter size though - different than my SEL35F18, which means i need to buy more filters. Overall, fantastic image quality and worth even more than the price paid! ... show more

  • Exceptional Lens at a Great Price!
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
I bought this lens for my husband as a Christmas gift in 2016 and it has performed exceptionally well! He's used it for photos & videos and has gotten great results with both using this lens along with a Sony a6000 cam. This lens definitely complimented the collection of lenses he already had and has been a great addition and SUPER beneficial. It performs very well in low-lit situations, and it also focuses really fast. The motor is quiet. The only con would maybe be the fact that the lens isn't as wide of a view as I thought, but I'm not a lens expert either (hence: it was a gift) Overall, I'm very satisfied with the purchase. ... show more

  • Would've been the perfect lens for my needs but...
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
The stills quality of this lens is impeccable! Very sharp and works exceptionally well on my older Sony A6000 body. But only for still shots. If I try to use it for video, there is a constant and rhythmic pulsing when using continuous auto-focus. It is very VERY noticeable (it's not subtle at all). Another reviewer described it perfectly when they said "It is a very strange movement because it's constant and at the same rate (not like the lens is hunting and then finds it's way, it's a continuous pulsing or throbbing and never stops). Unless you are committed to always using manual focus when shooting video, this lens is a no-go." This appears to be a common problem for this lens. I wanted to love it but I can't. Sadly, I'll be returning this lens because that constant pulsing is a deal breaker for me. Beautiful for stills, useless on video (unless you're using manual focus only). ... show more

  • Well-made, great starter Sony lens
Color: Black Style: Sony NEX E Mount
I bought this lens to fit my new A7S II. I previously had used all Canon products and wanted a lens to test out all the capabilities of this new camera whilst being light enough to use on a handheld gimbal stabilizer. I'm a wedding videographer and this lens is perfect for my needs. It's a cropped sensor lens, but at 19mm, it's still wide enough to get some really cool wide-angle gimbal shots. It's very well-built and f/2.8 is great for low light at a reception. The autofocus is really slow, so I don't use it, but for $199 it's much cheaper than the alternatives. Great starter lens. ... show more
