Best lens for NEX compact system cameras? - sagu - 05-12-2012
From your personal point of view which one do you consider to be the best lens for the NEX compact system cameras? Read in [url="http://www.cscrumors.com/2012/05/11/the-best-e-mount-lens-for-the-sony-alpha-nex-7-compact-system-camera-is-probably-the-sigma-30mm-f2-8-lens/"]this blog[/url] that the Sigma 30mm F2.8 may be the best lens in value for money.
What are your thoughts on this? Do you happen to have a Sigma 30mm F2.8 lens?
Thanks.

You can find reviews on the sigma lenses on lenstip; I believe they have the 19 and 30 for micro 4/3 mount; I could not find them for nex mount. They do make some rather negative comments about the nex-7 anti-alias filter making it very difficult to test lenses.

There biggeest complaint with the sigma is astigmatism and a touch of ca.

I think sigma 19mm is better for aps-c
