I don't know about you, but I'm really impressed by the image above. I'm not really surprised by the quality of the image though since the Sigma 19 anf 30 lenses are equally very good. These lenses are cheap but deliver what Sigma they would. When you look at the pricing for other name brands and look at the image quality you get from those, well, those brands should be ashamed of themselves.
These Sigma lenses can be bought for the Nex and the m4/3 mount and from what I've read and seen on the Internet they deliver for both mounts. In the last year or so, Sigma have brought out some great lenses for all mounts and it seems that things are shaping up for them. It might be that it's because of the management changes that took place not long ago, and when I think about it, I can't really think of another reason why the sudden change in quality has occured.
The 60 f2.8 lens is no beauty to look at, or the 19 and 30 for that matter but I really couldn't care because the images look great. If you want cheap prime lenses for the Nex or m4/3 mount, look no further than these three lenses. All told the cost will be around €600 for all three lenses. I wonder how they can do that when you look at the price for Canon or Nikon prime lenses.
Because the Nex has a x1.5 crop what you really have is a 28mm (19), a 45mm (30) and a 90mm (60), and the 60 makes for a great portrait lens. OK, for some people it'll be too slow at f2.8 but it suits me fine.
