  • Great Lens for Everything
The Sigma 30mm F1.4 Contemporary DC DN Lens for Sony E A6000 is a fantastic piece of equipment that offers exceptional image quality and versatility. As a photographer, I have been using this lens for several months now, and I have been blown away by its performance. One of the things that I love most about this lens is its fast f/1.4 aperture, which allows for excellent low light performance and beautiful bokeh. I have been able to capture stunning portraits and creative shots with this lens that I couldn't achieve with other lenses in my collection. Another aspect of this lens that impressed me is its build quality. The lens is well-constructed and feels solid in the hand, which gives me confidence that it can withstand the rigors of regular use. The autofocus is quick and accurate, which is particularly useful when shooting fast-moving subjects. In terms of image quality, this lens does not disappoint. The sharpness is excellent throughout the entire frame, even when shooting wide open at f/1.4. The colors are also accurate, and the contrast is punchy, giving images a beautiful pop. Overall, I highly recommend the Sigma 30mm F1.4 Contemporary DC DN Lens for Sony E A6000 to any photographer looking for a high-quality, versatile lens that can capture stunning images in a variety of shooting scenarios. Whether you're shooting portraits, landscapes, or street photography, this lens is an excellent choice that won't disappoint. ... show more

  • Best Prime for Sony APS-C
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

  • Best prime for E-Mount
As many have said, this might just be the best prime lens for Sony's E-Mount / APS-C cameras. I use it on my Sony A6000, and it's amazing. Quick pros and cons: Pros: Best-in-class aperture. f1.4 is currently the best available on the market, there is no more open lens in this range. Cheap. Compared to the competition, this lens is an absolute steal. Cheaper than the nearest Sony and Zeiss equivalents. Amazing quality. I never knew a lens this cheap, and promising f1.4, could ever look this good. Unless you're a serious photo pro who's crawling over the pixels in Photoshop, this lens is near perfect at any setting. What small flaws it does have, are almost all easily fixed (e.g. very minor, best-in-class, barrel distortion). Anyone using this for point-and-shoot or basic portraits won't need to do a thing, it looks great out of the box. Cons: No image stabilization. This is really both a pro and a con. You don't need image stabilization anyway if you shoot with a tripod, so no sense paying for it. If you know anything about setting up your camera, you probably already know how to setup a fast shutter speed using the 1.4 to avoid almost all concerns about shaky hands. However, lacking image stabilization means handheld shots are a fraction slower and less stable than they would be with the Sony-equivalent lens that does have image stabilization. Really, I wouldn't be worried if you know how to setup a lens, but the Sony is the easier "point and click" lens in the range. If you're a studio photographer with a lot of lighting who depends on each individual shot being perfect yet you don't use a tripod, then maybe you'd need to worry. I just shoot in multi-shot mode to make sure I get a good one. Chromatic aberration. Also called "purple fringing", lenses with low enough f-stop values are prone to splitting the light on the edges of a subject, leading to a bleeding effect where sharp differences in light cause the object to have a purple outline. Note that this outline is normally pretty hard to see unless you're really blowing up the image (8x10?) or looking for it on a monitor. This is normal, and for this class of lense, this lense is still great for its class. If this is a major concern for you, either shop around, or learn to shoot around it (increase f-stop when shooting sharp light contrasts, for instance). Zoom by wire. Most e-mount lenses don't zoom on a 1:1 track with how you spin the ring, they relay that information to the camera which tries to guess what value you're reaching for. This is totally normal across the range, but some people seem to be bothered by it, so take note. This lens dials in just as well as any of its fly-by-wire competitors, and I find I can get exactly the results I want using the simple "show a zoom during focus" option on my camera. Overall: This lens has all the normal flaws of a 1.4 in this price range, but it costs less, and has the lowest f-stop you can get. Absolutely, bar-none the best prime lens for most users. Requires only beginner-level knowledge to make the most out of it. Spend one day looking up tips on shooting with lenses with low f-stops, and you'll be ready for this. ... show more
