I also have all three lenses. I could stay with only 30mm which is most versalite and beautifuly neutral. I am a bit disappointed with 16mm, it's to wide for me also introduces too much distortion, so I do not use it very often. I would love 24mm instead (~35mm FF equivalent). Personally for portraits I prefer 30mm instead 56mm but I love using this short Tele occasionally to catch special perspective in landscape photography but finally I also use it less than expected.
I have the entire trio since two years now. The quality of images taken is very superb compared to other lenses. During the past 6 months several times I thought about a change to an equivalent zoom lens, e.x. the new Sigma 18-50mm or the Sony 16-55mm. The Sony offers the better image quality, but the f2.8 is a certain disadvantage compared to the f1.8 of the trio. As I’m using the lenses for night/street photography, the trio offers better quality. If I compare the Sigma trio with the new Sigma zoom 18-50, without any doubt, I stay with the trio. Overall, the trio comes with the best image quality.
30mm: weakest in terms of performance, but most versatile. Easiest to compose with too. 16mm: mid level in terms of performance, but very niche in usage. Largest and heaviest of the three. 56mm: best in terms of performance, but also more specific use. Smallest and lightest of the three. In summary: (for me personally) choose based on the angle of view needed first; then consider either quality/ size & weight.
I recently bought the 16mm and I am pretty satisfied with it and Im searching for 30 and 56 for resales. Anyways, I appreciated your video with these comparisons which I used for research and made decisions :)
If you were making a movie and forced to use the m50, which lense would you get first? I'm torn between the 30mm for intimate scenes and detail and the 16mm any guidance would be appreciated! God bless
4:57 FINALLY a video where I'm shown the distance to camera. THANK YOU my friend 💪

I think you summed it up perfectly^

The best video for Sigma 1.4 comparaison. Thnx a lot.
My pleasure!
By far best review on the three lense- very concise. Thanks 👍
the 23mm + 56mm are the ones that you should buy
I have the 16mm and 56mm .16 awesome for wideshot like Labdscape and Architectures ,56mm is Brilliant for Portrait shots.
Buy all of them. They are worth it.
i have the 16mm, great for landscape

Hi. Have 30 mm on my A6600 for videos - nice sharp image, but better use with manual focus, especially in low light conditions.
The best one is 56, 30mm loses contrast in counter light, 16 was not very useful, sold all of them
You still on apsc or upgraded to full frame?
I have the 16mm, don’t know if I’ll go 30 & 56 or get the 18-50 f2.8.
Agree
I HAD 16MM BUT NOW I WANT TO SELL IT AND BUY 30 MM
Brother please tell me 30 mm is better than Sigma zoom 1850 reply soon please
