Sigma 16mm 1.4 EFM

Hi All,

Anyone have any experience with this lens, EFM version or other? I have watched a few reviews and it seems like a good deal at around £350 or so.

It will primarily be used as my streaming lens (currently use the kit 15-45 at 18mm, f/3.5) but also as a walk about lens/family photo lens. I have the 50mm 1.8 too but sometimes I find that too far (due to the 1.6 factor) to always use indoors.

Any thoughts?

I have the Sigma 16mm f1.4DC DN Contemporary for my Sony aps-c and it's an awesome lens. If the EFM version is also DC DN Contemporary then yeah, go for it.

I have been hovering over the buy button for a while now. I believe the lens is the same, just different mounting. Watching many videos online it seems like everyone has great things to say about it too....
