I just added a Sigma 30mm F2.8 prime and am completely happy with my camera now. The19mm Sigma was too wide for most of the shooting I do, but the 30mm is just right. Color and clarity are much better than the 14-42 kit lens. I'm thinking of adding the 60mm next.
Until I gave them to my son, I had both the Sigma 30mm f/2.8 DN and the 60mm f/2.8 DN. Except for the focal length, everything about these two lenses is the same. You didn't say if you have the EX or DN versions of the 19mm and 30mm. If you have the DN version than you get the same hood and a case with each lens. All three take 46mm filters. I really liked the case that came with the 60mm. Same material, but nicer build with a heavier zipper and a little storage spot inside the top for a spare battery and SD card. It also had a belt loop. My first lens was the 12mm f/2.0 which I got with my E-M10, and my second was the Sigma 60mm. Left the house with the 12mm on the E-M10 and the case on my belt with the 60mm and a spare battery.

The Fujifilm X-T5 is the company's latest classically-styled APS-C mirrorless camera. It gains the 40MP sensor and AF system from the X-H2 but in a body with a more stills-focused slant. We've been putting it through its paces.
We're Noct messing around with this review.
Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom impress in a lot of ways, but their noise reduction lags the competition and their lens corrections lack a real-world basis. DxO PureRAW 3 aims to come to their rescue without totally reinventing your workflow!
The Sony ZV-E1 is the company's latest vlogging-focused camera: a full-frame mirrorless camera based the FX3/a7S III sensor, aimed at YouTubers and 'creators' looking to go pro.
