About this deal

There is some slight chromatic aberration on high-contrast edges, but it is very faint and easily removed This close focus stamp shot is very small, and has a rather poor reproduction size of 0.10x. For the best Although none of the lenses feature weather-sealing, they all sport a solid barrel made of a mix of high grade plastics and metal. Holding them in the hand, the 35mm f/1.8 comes across as the least robust of the three because there is less metal covering the exterior. The popularity of the a5000 and a6000/a6300/a6500 series coupled with the affordability and suitability of these three primes for a variety of genres means that they are amongst the most sought-after lenses for any camera system.

Another trade-offforhavingan F1.4 maximum aperture in a relatively small lens is fairly severe barrel distortion that is easily detected in any scene with straight vertical elements. Without correction, it has potential to be a bit distracting.

thinking of buying this lens. The corners look bad unless stopped down to F/11. Granted, you don't buy this lens A scaled down version of the FX format Sigma 50mm f/1.4 Art lens, this standard prime for APS-C format cameras is less than two-thirds the physical length and barely more than half the weight. Even so, it’s twice as heavy as Nikon’s 35mm DX prime lens, mostly due to the Sigma having a faster aperture rating.

The 30mm F1.4 lens gives you an equivalent of 45mm with a DX camera, such as the Nikon Z30, Nikon Z50 or Nikon Zfc. This makes it a good choice for several subjects, including environmental type portraits and street photography. The closest prime lens for DX from Nikon’s own-line up is the Nikkor Z DX 24mm f/1.7 lens, which with its equivalent focal length of 36mm is significantly wider than the Sigma option.

The 16mm, 30mm and 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lenses are the perfect trio if you own a crop sensor mirrorless camera. These are great lenses for street photography and excel in low light conditions."

As stated in the intro, one of the biggest reasons I switched to the Sony a6000 ecosystem was for the smaller size & weight. note; the lens doesn't seem to stop down correctly at F/11-F/16, and causes about 2/3 of a stop underexposure at those apertures. We run a range of lab tests under controlled conditions, using the Imatest Master testing suite. Photos of test charts are taken across the range of apertures and zooms (where available), then analyzed for sharpness, distortion and chromatic aberrations. test chart shots, use F/5.6-F/8. It's really hard to tell in the image above, I could've used F/2.8 and nobodyEquipped with the silent, responsive and high speed Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) and provides full time manual focus override (Note Sony model does not have the HSM) DC lenses are exclusively designed for digital SLR cameras. The image circle (rear of lens) is made to match the smaller dimensions used for the image sensor on digital cameras. As a result these lenses are also more compact and lightweight, and are better matched to digital SLR cameras. It is a little more then exchanging the mechanical mount as the flange range of Fujifilm differs from that from the Sony mount. In this Hands On Sony Lens Review of the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC Lens I will cover everything you need to know, from a “Real World” Photographers perspective!! The three new Sigma EF-M primes share several things in common: they all sport a bright f1.4 focal ratio that’s ideal in low light for for creating shallow depth-of-field effects. They claim to be sealed against dust and moisture, something that’s so far eluded all of Canon’s EF-M lenses, although I couldn’t see a rubber O-ring on the mounts. They all come supplied with lens hoods, an accessory that Canon charges for on non-L lenses. They all work with Canon’s Servo AF as well as face and eye detection, while additionally including built-in profiles to work with in-camera correction and provide full EXIF information. They’re all members of Sigma’s Contemporary series, and if you get bored of EF-M, you can have the mount converted – for a fee – to Sony E or Micro Four Thirds if you prefer.

The Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC lens is not a light lens either considering it size. The weight is expected though as the f/1.4 aperture is large, and calls for 7 large SLD glass elements to make up the lens group. All that glass adds up to a pretty hefty little lens that tips the scales at 15.17 oz (430g). Lightweight in build and selling price, this is a high-performance standard prime that combines very good build quality and nice handling characteristics with solid all-round performance. Autofocus is fast and accurate, yet smooth and virtually silent for movie capture. Image quality is excellent overall although, as is usually the case with fast prime lenses, axial chromatic aberration can be noticeable when shooting wide-open. All things considered, this Sigma is terrific value at the price.

also get a plastic "DiaPetal" hood which means it has two different shaped "petals" across from each other, Some friends of mine on top of a mountain overlooking Hidden Lake in Glacier NP. Image Quality Sharpness Comparisons aren’t necessary for this section of the article because only the Sony 35mm f/1.8 comes with optical stabilisation (Optical SteadyShot). For those who own a Sony APS-C body without in-body stabilisation – essentially all bodies except the a6500 – having optical stabilisation can be an enormous advantage when shooting at slow shutter speeds. The Sony version doesn’t fare quite as well as the MTF version previously tested for other lens metrics, such as distortion, vignetting, and chromatic aberration, due to the larger APS-C sensor that the Sony version covers.
