Sigma 19mm f/2.8 DN Art vs Sony FE 28mm f/2

The Sigma 19mm f/2.8 DN Art and the Sony FE 28mm f/2 side by side, computed from this guide's catalogue.

Which to pick

Pick the Sigma 19mm f/2.8 DN Art if you want a design for APS-C, which usually means smaller and lighter; a fit on more cameras (90 against 41 in this guide); and a lighter lens (160 g against 200 g). Pick the Sony FE 28mm f/2 if you want a brighter f/2 (1.0 stops more light), for dim light and softer backgrounds and coverage of full frame, so it suits the larger-sensor bodies too.
