What nice bokeh for a wide angle. Quite unexpected. Im loving my Sigma 45mm but this 35mm looks really interesting.

"The Man above the gate" is quite good, and really shows off the lens. I would like to see it with quite a bit more shadow, which would add to the feeling that there is a story here.

I tend to like very wide lenses and decided to try the Sigma 35mm. I don't usually like to shoot at 35mm and I would say my favorite has been from 14 to 24mm, but 35mm has been nice!

Just out of curiosity, have you noticed any issues with stuff inside your lens? I saw someone had mentioned that their 35 f2 has a little dust and moisture after about two years of use. Just curious if you had any input. I personally think the look is a bit more pleasing for photo than the Lumix, but the Lumix of course has the full sealing. The i series also look like they're fun to use

I haven't noticed anything inside mine.

I never had issues with mine and I have it already for more than 2 years.

Depending on where you live and how you store your equipment, moisture is always a problem. Even with sealed lenses. Sealing is useless, if you go from very cold outside into the warm inside a house for example. Or if the region where you live is very humid, like in some areas in Asia. Then you need to take extra steps to store your equipment.
