I only have the 60mm. It is in my opinion very nice. I do think though, that primes for the mft system are better if maybe f1.8 or even f1.4. The control of depth of field on mft is a bit limited so f2.8 is not the best for this aspect
I totally agree with you on that depth of field thing. I got two f1.8 vintage lenses and they are truly terrific in portrait photography, for instance. My first of the trio was 60mm which is considered to be optically the best and really sharp lens in general. Then I got 30mm and yesterday 19mm. I absolutely love the 19mm the contrast and colors seems to be a lot nicer than in the other two. The 30mm is the one I don't like that much. Somehow it doesn't exceed the bar in any sector. This is just my opinion
I've had the 19, 30 and 60mm for Sony E. 60 was very good. I really loved the 30mm but the 19mm not so much. I know that the 60mm is fantastic on m43 mount, but don't know anything about the others.
Nice to hear Sony E system insight too it seems like the 60mm is very good in both systems
When thinking about the other two lenses, maybe the key difference is the field of view in different systems. In MFT the 19mm is very versatile lens when compared to much tighter FOV of the 30mm. In APS-C the 30mm is wider and better for multipurposes. I'm not sure but maybe Sony also handles the CA better with 30mm than MFT. In my use CA hasn't been an issue with 19mm and 60mm but somehow with 30mm it does. But as far as CA can be removed in Lightroom it's not that big of a deal in real world
