The 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM Art is another solid entry in Sigma's prestige lens line-not the finest glass the company has to offer, but a marked improvement over the older (if cheaper) 30mm f/1.4.

Good challenging lens

To have an aperture so wide is nice. I have not really had the time to fully evaluate the lens. It hunts when focusing on the A6300, but maybe I should use another AF setting. Will have to experiment now. God lens, but it needs some work to learn and use it at its best.

Absolutely

This was my first lens for my a6300 almost 6 months ago. I was torn between this and sonys 35mm 1.8, but the crisp results from this lens were worth the distortion! Focusing can be slow, and the fly by wire isn't for me, but it's a good focal length that you can get a wide variety of shots with.
Pros:
  • Amazing depth
  • Consistent Output
  • Durable
  • Lightweight
  • Sharp photos
Cons:
  • Slow Focus

Must buy Prime for A6500

Disregard any reviews talking trash about this lens. Any issues with AF are certainly user error. If you use C-AF Wide w/Continuous Shooting, you get amazingly fast and accurate PDAF from f/1.4-f/8. Beyond f/8 youre stuck with Contrast Detect AF, which is fine but I try to generally stay below f/8.

Sigma AF 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM (Nikon DX) - Review / Test Report

It seems the primary design priority for the Sigma AF 30mm f/1.4 EX DC was to achieve the highest possible center resolution without caring too much about the rest. The border performance of the lens is just so-so at f/1.4 and only good when stopped down.

Big problem

If you change lenses frequently (as I do) and happen to put this one back in your bag without first attaching the rear lens cap, the rear glass is very easy to scratch as the glass protrudes beyond the lens mount when lens is set to infinity.
Pros:
  • Captures nice images
Cons:
  • Fatal design flaw

Sigma 30mm F1.4 EX DC HSM Lens Review

Sigma 30mmf/1.4 EX DC HSM is currently the only non fish-eye fixed focal lens in Sigma's arsenal that was designed from grounds up for APS-C type cameras. The lens has a reduced imaging circle and while it can in theory be mounted on a full-frame of APS-H type cameras, the lens will vignette...
