Despite having the 50mm ZA 1.4 and 50mm 2.5 G, the 50mm f2 will be a definite purchase. I love my 35mm f2 so much.

I still think the Sigma 35/2 DG DN is one of the best 35mm lenses for the Sony. I also love the fact that's a bit wider than 35mm. Similar to the RX1R's angle of view.

I really like images from the Sigma 35mm F2 DG DN. I think it produces lovely images.

Having owned every native Sony AF 35mm, it's the one I've kept. I prefer other lenses for certain aspects (GM AF speed, ZA colors/contrast + SA especially), but it's the closest thing I've found to the RX1.

I've been on the fence about keeping mine vs the 35mm GM, however I'm not sure the extra stop is going to make up for the wonderful size, handling, and image quality.

The lens does not work well with my SL2-S. it de-focuses most of the time compared to manual focusing. you can see the difference even in the viewfinder. I tried all AF modes but failed to get consistent good results. The lens somewhat back focuses, though not each time. The firmware of the camera and the lens are both updated.
I checked the sample lens in Sigma showroom and found similar problem. Later I visited the local repair center and was told the lens was Ok after running it through testing procedures. I tried the camera with Leica SL 35APO and each picture was perfectly focused.
I don't know what is gong wrong here. But if you want to use this lens on SL2-S, you'd better pay attention to this issue.
