big bore lens! looks the biz.

this 30mm lens works very in low light. I used it in the USA, at night with nothing but street lamps, and i was able to get great still shots and landscapes... very very impressed!

Lens review

Purchased for use with Canon 400D camera. Delivered fairly quickly, packaging acceptable. The lens itself is superb. Fast at f1.4 is very fast! And it is very sharp. Focus with care especially when working full open because depth of field is almost...

Very fast prime lens does not disappoint

 

Very fast prime lens does not disappoint

I love this lens. Its so compact and fast and gives the traditional perspective view with a 2/3 sensor. It works well in available light without resorting to high ISO values. The only reason it only gets four stars is because it is a bit of an...

Great normal lens for DX cameras

 

Great normal lens for DX cameras

I bought this lens as a solution to low light photography in situations where space doesn't permit the working distance required for my Nikkor 50mm f1.8 and it does just that. Since I bought this lens it has been a permanent fixture in my camera bag...

The only solution to the classic equiv. 50mm for film cameras.

 

The only solution to the classic equiv. 50mm for film cameras.

Be prepared to return it to get a good one...

Having had great results with the plastic 50mm 1.8 lens but finding I was going to need either smaller subjects or bigger rooms with my crop sensor - this lens seemed a great idea. It was however a disappointment out of the box. No matter how hard I...

Sigma 30mm

 

Sigma 30mm

A very good prime lens from sigma and is quite heavy and well built. This is only for cropped sensors or full frame in crop mode. I only used this lens for a short while but produced very sharp shots with fast hsm auto focus. If you have the d40...

Superb

I wanted a fast lens for interior shots as I absolutely hate flash and in larger interiors it is not always practical anyway. The sigma did not disappoint on my Canon 400D. Autofocus was fast, and worked in all but a a very few situations and the shots...

Excellent lens on a Nikon D300

 

Excellent lens on a Nikon D300

I mention the D300 as some internet reviews say that focus is difficult at f1.4. not on the new d300. I love prime lens as the same quality on a zoom costs far more. In this moden age we seem to opt for convienance. A zoom fits this, but I get a lot...
