Sigma 60mm Art lens on MFT

[Saintsman]

I have been looking to get one of these for my GX7 as they seem excellent value for money and my longest lens is a 45mm 1.8,

Has anyone had any experience of using this lens and can give me some opinions?

Thanks

Dave

Hi

Obviously I am Biased and not even sure if I should post this link as its from another forum, although it is one that specialises in m4/3 stuff so hopefully it is allowed

And just look at the first picture here

Have a look at the results people on there have been getting with this excellent pin sharp lens.

I am only selling mine to help fund an Olympus 60mm Macro lens, although not totally sure why as the Sigma plus Raynox 250 gives stonking sharp results.

Yes seriously sharp like all of the range (I still have the 19mm) I only sold mine to fund the 45mm as the 120mm focal length of the 60mm was too long for my needs..

Watch this review.
I think it will tell you what you need to know.
I have the 19mm and 30mm arriving tomorrow and the 60mm is next on my hit list! Heheh

Just to update my Sigma 19 and 30 arrived today and i cant see any issue with manual focusing with the smooth metal focus ring. Also they appear very sharp so the 60 should be the same.
