Pros: Constant F2.8. Sharpness. Lightness.

Cons: Not stabilized. For some, the lack of an aperture ring (but I saw that you can photograph the same... :-) !)

Opinion: I have the X-mount version and I use it on the XT5 to have a light combination to use when you want to contain weights and dimensions. On the XT5 with its stabilized sensor, it works well and seems to be able to take advantage of the loved/hated 40 mpx. I am not an expert technician/engineer/optician like many here, mine is consequently an empirical and personal opinion and I can say that the performance of the lens is excellent and the photos I take are lacking exclusively because of my inexperience. I recommend it to those who want lightness and quality.

Pros: Lightweight, tropicalized, IQ, silent on the video side

Cons: No diaphragm ring

Opinion: I bought this lens a few months ago and use it mounted on a Fujifilm X-S10. I liked it right away for lightness, image quality that is quite discreet, total absence of chromatic aberrations (problem that I found in the past with lenses much more expensive than this but for Sony mirrorless). As far as vignetting is concerned, there is little visible, almost absent. Also on the video side the quality is very good and the zoom does not create any annoyance or noise. Overall certainly you can not compare it to professional lenses but for what I do, street, some portraits and a bit of nature is more than fine.

Pros: Lightweight,constant f/2.8 aperture,zoom ring,tropicalized, silent,Contemporary series

Cons: No diaphragm ring

Opinion: It is my first Sigma lens.I bought it used two days ago ( 430€ ) as new. In the end I chose the Sigma rather than the 18-55 Fujifilm for the constant aperture at f/2.8 and for the tropicalization. For now, it satisfies me. I will try it in the evening on a easel for landscapes . It is small and lightweight. The auto focus I assure you does not feel at all. Contemporary Series . I recommend it. Vote 9

Pros: Compact, lightweight, all-rounder, maf distance, speed

Cons: Vignetting, vignetting, vignetting, vignetting, for some the zoom dial on the contrary can be a problem.

Opinion: For what this toy costs they have made a half miracle. It depends on what you expect. Excellent usability, perfect for travel, reportage and much more. I used it on a whim even in a wedding in the most relaxed moments and it did not behave badly. Distortion in the norm to be a gem that is in the hand of a child, the sharpness I consider more than enough, it depends on what you use it for, however even in the portrait, between 40 and 50 mm it is not bad even at full aperture. The real problem is the vignetting between 18 and 24mm, horrendous and incorrigible. Practically a ring, an obscene stuff, never seen before. When you frame clear skies or scenes it is very evident. It disappears after f4. Clear that if you expect the performances of a 24-70 f2.8 for full frame we are quite far away. Overall he gets away with it.

Pros: Focus, openness, construction, size and IQ.

Cons: Rings a bit strange, I explain below.

Opinion: Excellent optics, it has everything you need. At € 500 we find a good focal range (27-75), constant aperture at F2.8, a more than good construction with even a minimum of weather resistance, all in a very small body. Finally, the image quality is all there in spite of what you hear around. The only cons are the rings: The zoom ring that turns backwards compared to the one found between most lenses, a bit unnatural but you get used to it and the focus ring put where one could imagine the aperture ring. You get used to it too, but in short, if it had been customizable... In general, however, an excellent optics. A must for those who love/need the genre.

Pros: Size, weight, sharpness up to 3/4, value for money

Cons: Distortion, a bit of aberrations in strong light conditions

Opinion: Balanced optics in performance and price. It prefers compactness and lightness without losing sharpness but compromising on other optical characteristics. First of all the distortion always marked at every focal length. Aberrations are present in strong, reflective light conditions. Weight and size make it an excellent travel companion especially on compact bodies such as the A6XXX series. The stabilizer is missing but it is not a con since you buy knowing it. The blurry is pleasant. Essential construction but of good workmanship. In conclusion, a lens capable of giving good shots.
