September 10, Sold and Shipped
I'm selling my Sigma 30/1.4 EX DC Pentax KAF mount
The Sigma 30/1.4 is one lens of it's own. If you need a top performer for low light shooting this is the lens you need. The lens I have for sale is the very same as the one tested by Klaus at Photozone, and it performed pretty well with an all time high score for any lens tested on the K10D (beating the FA31 and the FA35...). It has good contrast wide open (way better than FA50/1.4, better than FA35/2 and as good or better than FA31, still while being faster).
This lens has visited Sigma Sweden after I purchased it (new). They adjusted the AF and now it is spot on. They also added a few very faint and hard to see marks on the front element which could scare anyone not knowing about these things. It's just fair to mention it. In every other aspect this lens is as new.

Q: Hi Jonas,
interested in the Sigma f1.4 lens. Please let me know if you could email me some close ups of the lens. You can email them to x@y.zom
A: Hi x,
No, I'm not interested in mailing pictures in different directions. I took a few quickies and uploaded them here for you, or anyone interested:

I'm sorry for the dust. I'm not much of a product photographer I'm afraid. I should have wiped it off before clicking away. Oh well. As you can see the lens is in good shape.
And here is a sample picture:
