This is one of the best m43 lenses ever ! – only the Olympus 75mm is sharper, but this costs a fraction of the price…
I cannot imagine there will be many to take advantage of the offer, because most probably already have one… 🙂
A wonderful lens, indeed.
Amazing. A rebate for the best value lens there ever has been. Time to get a backup copy for mine.
Would you consider it a better lens for head shoots than 45mm 1.8 in terms of results / price?
The oly 45mm f1.8 is an excellent portrait lens – it has a lovely bokeh, so I wouldn’t say this Sigma is better, just different. I find the Sigma is a great short telephoto to carry around.
Is the oly 45mm 1.8 sharp when shooting at 1.8? That would be my only reason to buy it. I have the Sigma 60 2.8 and oly 12-40 2.8 pro already.
Yes, because it is sharper than the 45mm or any other portrait lens at f/2.8 and using any wider aperture is too much hassle due to the I ultra shallow depth of field.
Here in Germany 160€ (about $180) is the normal price.
I will never understand the price policy of camera manufacturers…
