The Sigma 30mm F1.4 DC DN | C is one of the sharpest lenses available for Sony E-mount, and costs less than many of the prime lenses it outperforms. Combine that with being one of the brightest autofocus lenses available as well, and the result is an excellent lens for anyone interested, whether they're just getting started, or are a seasoned shooter.
Good for: A wide variety of shooting situations such as environmental portraits, low light, street shooting. Great as a standalone prime, or paired with a kit zoom.
Not so good for: High magnification/macro shooting, or shooters that prefer prime lenses with a wider field of view, or use in inclement weather.
