I took delivery of the Sigma 24/2 and 90/2.8 today. It’s after work, autumn, getting dark, and it’s raining cats and dogs, so I’ve not been able to do any serious shooting yet.

These lenses are exquisite and look grest. The aperture ring goes into nice clicks at every third stop. The focus ring isn’t linear, but it’s well enough dampened that I won’t notice. Ecploiting the non-linear speed gain requires some effort to do. This means that these two will work very nicely in manual focus mode, and only Leica or Zeiss MF glass can surpass their manual focus feel.

I’m going to keep both the 24/2 and the 24/3.5.


I think the manual focus throw and linearity can be tweaked using the Sigma USB dock but I am not sure since I never used it.


Did Sigma release an E-mount dock recently?

As far as I know only Samyang has a USB dock for E-mount.

Sigma does their firmware updates through the camera like Tamron and Sony.
