  • Sharp, Compact, and Beautiful Bokeh
Style: Canon RF
I’m using the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN on my Canon R50 (APS-C, RF mount) and it’s quickly become one of my favorite lenses. The 48.2° angle of view feels natural and works well for portraits, travel, and everyday use. The ultra-fast f/1.4 aperture creates stunning background separation, and the bokeh is smooth and creamy thanks to the 9-blade rounded diaphragm. The lens produces crisp, vibrant images and feels solid despite being small and lightweight. The 52mm filter thread is convenient, and the compact size makes it perfect for travel or street photography. The only drawback is the lack of image stabilization, but that’s also what keeps it so light and portable. For video, I’d suggest using a tripod or gimbal. Overall, this is a fantastic prime lens that delivers sharpness, beautiful bokeh, and excellent value for Canon R-series APS-C users. ... show more

  • Best Prime for Sony APS-C
Style: SONY E
This is without a doubt my favorite lens. For reference, these are the lenses I have used on my e mount cameras: Sony 18-55mm kit lens, Sony 55-210mm telephoto lens, Sony 18-105mm f/4, Sigma 30mm f/2.8, Sigma 50mm f/1.4 (LA-EA3 adapted), Sony 35mm F/1.8 (LA-EA3 adapted). The closest in sharpness and depth of focus is the Sigma 50mm f/1.4, but since it uses an adapted the auto focus and overall function is somewhat degraded. The lens operates wonderfully as a native lens, the focus is very fast and the overall feel is very comfortable. The fit is a bit tighter than my other e-mount lenses, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. Now to the downsides. This lens was designed for 4/3 cameras, which have smaller sensors than the Sony APS-C. Ultimately, this only effects the edges, and it is not even noticeable unless you are looking for it. There is some significant fringing when open past f/2, but this is easily correctable in any post-processing program and is pretty normal for lenses this fast. I would recommend looking into the DxOMark review of this lens as they provide valuable and objective information about the lenses they review. Here are the biggest upsides. The bokeh is outstanding as you would expect from a fast lens like this. As far as light is concerned this lens is pretty nice, but has some room for improvement. The transmission on this lens is T/1.8. This lens is equivalent to 45mm on a full frame sensor, which I found to look better than 35mm (52.5mm equivalent). My opinion is if you can only have one prime, this is plenty wide and super fast. The focus ring is much better than the Sony 35mm f/1.8, and turns very smoothly. Looking through the EVF you can see the focal distance as you turn the ring. At the end of the day, this is the best prime to buy for any Sony APS-C camera. Although it looks best on an a6300, this will take amazing pictures on any camera. The photos are taken from a Sony a6300 with some minor touch ups in Lightroom. Finally, I would recommend grabbing Amazon's 52mm polarizing filter for this. Its not the best filter out there, but its nice enough for the price. Pros: Inexpensive, sharp, fast, overall performer Cons: Minor vignetting and chromatic aberration ... show more

  • This is a great lens
Style: SONY E
I am using SIGMA 30mm F1.4 with my Sony a6000. My camera become alive after I equip this lens. It is really sharp especially outdoor under sunlight, you can’t shoot at wide open F1.4 since your image become too bright. You have to increase shutter speed accordingly to be minimum at 1/500 or 1/1000, which will increase sharpness as a result. For indoor pictures, it is great but not perfect like outdoor. This is applicable for all cameras, and SIGMA lens is one of the best out there. I was confused between SIGMA F1.4 with Sony SEL35F18, and I saw so many reviews online. Finally I took my decision for SIGMA for the benefit of more sharpness. I am really happy with my purchase. Sharpness is most important criteria for me. Focus speed is good but not as fast as Sony. Please don’t misunderstand me here because a lot of reviewer is giving wrong information about this lens. It is fast in getting photos but not the fastest like Sony lenses, especially in videos. Pros: 1. Sharpness especially outdoor. When I saw my images simply I said “wow”. 2. Wide open F1.4 is the best you can get for your photos. 3. Good handling for stable pictures. 4. Price. This lens can’t be beaten here. 5. 30mm is very good and better than 35mm. Cons: 1. No image stabilization in the lens itself. If you have shaky hands, you have to keep in mind to increase shutter speed to get more sharpness. If you use this lens with a6500, then ignore this cons. Finally, I highly recommend this lens if you are upgrading your kit lens. It is a must purchase, go and get it immediately. I felt really bad not to buy this lens before, because I have lost a lot of good moments by using my old kit lens and believe me there is no comparison at all. For videos, I am still using my kit lens since it is wider at 16mm for indoor. I am not a pro photographer, but I wish I could help you in getting your right choice. Have fun and enjoy very sharp images. Update 2 March 2017: I have wrongly reviewed this lens before for saturation issue, which shows bad result for RAW files. Actually, there is no saturation issue at all. It was a software problem in my computer. I have tried different application which shows the saturation correctly. I apologize for such mistake, and thank to Mr. Gustavo for his comment. At the end, I have updated my review above and I can't find any other cons rather than lack of image stabilization. enjoy :) ... show more
