Sigma scored quite a bit of hit with its set of DN lenses which is probably not all that surprising given their compact size, low weight and - especially - the very attractive price point.

The Sigma 60mm F2.8 DN ($239 direct) is the largest and most expensive lens that the company currently offers for mirrorless cameras, but it's still fairly light and compact when compared with SLR glass.
Very sharp from edge to edge; Minimal distortion; Available for Micro Four Thirds and NEX cameras.
Lacks image stabilization
Added this lens to the 19mm and 30mm Sigma lenses that I have for my Lumiox GX1. These three prime lenses perform beautifully. The new 60mm is a fast mid-range lens that produces very clear images. It's size matches my GX1 to produced a nicely balanced camera-lens combination.

The Sigma 60mm F2.8 DN ($239 direct) is the largest and most expensive lens that the company currently offers for mirrorless cameras, but it's still fairly light and compact when compared with SLR glass. The prime produces a 90mm (full-frame equivalent) field of view when paired with a Sony NEX camera, and a tighter 120mm viewpoint when mounted on a Micro Four Thirds camera. It's not optically stabilized, which is a downer given its short-telephoto design, but Olympus Micro Four Thirds photographers and Panasonic GX7 owners will be fine thanks to in-body stabilization. It measures 2.2 by 2.4 inches (HD), weighs 7.5 ounces, and sports a 46mm filter thread. Like the other lenses in the DN series, it's available in black or silver, its barrel is metal, and the focus ring has no texture to it. Your mileage may vary, but I prefer a focus ring that delivers a bit more grip. A reversible lens hood is included, as is a soft carrying case. The minimum focus distance is 19.7 inches, so it'...

Handling and features This 60mm lens is currently available to fit both Micro Four Thirds and Sony NEX cameras and costs around £170 and it sports a bright f/2.8 aperture with rounded aperture blades, for pleasing out of focus blur.
Great lens, pin sharp on portraiture, excellent value and they include a hood and pouch which is a nice touch. Is very good at showing fine detail in the face. Get one!
Very sharp
Bit slow to focus on an OLympus E-P2 in low light but that is the Oly I think
Outstanding with a cheap price. Qualify to be top of the line \"A\" Art Series
Excellent optics comparable to Olympus 60/2.8 macro and 75/1.8.Great minimalist design; simplicity handling and like a gem
This lens comes in mounts for both micro four thirds and Sony's NEX cameras. For micro four thirds the effective 35mm equivalent focal length is 120mm and for the Sony cameras it is 90mm. The appearance of the lens is unusual with its wide, smooth barrel which is the manual focus ring.
