Any chance you have an indication how much would the Sigma 30mm 1.4 HSM cost?

$750 at CP

Its been 3 months and now using my 50mm f1.8, Sigma 15-50mm f2.8 accompanying me to take the baby shots...

Just sharing the progress .... 95% indoor shoots, no flash, 25% using CFL Lighting.

As for lens usage
- 50% on 50mm f1.8, when lighting insufficient and doesnt to use high ISO or CFL.
- 50% on Sigma 15-50mm f2.8 , when need wide angle and closer shot compared to 50mm

Now still considering the 30mm f1.4 which believe likely the need for wider apeture, closer shot .... which more conivenent than switching the 2 lens for the indoor needs....

Glad that this thread still kept in 'warm' & hope it continues to be shared for the father/mother or even uncle/aunite who want to take their baby shots ......
