comment:	I have exchanged the sigma 20/1,8 for this lens. Only weight and size were the reason. Not able to compare the results anymore, but I think the image quality is the same, apart the DOF that 1,8 offers. The sigma 20/1,8 is better performer against the light, and is its flare control is rated to 5. While this minolta is a 3 points performance against the sun, or source of the light. I like the aperture blades on sigma more as well. Anyway, I am very satisfied, and my lineup consists of small, light lenses, that allows me to take them all whereever I go.
