The Sony NEX lens pool is slowly growing. A few reviews and sites have been recommending the Sigma 19mm F2.8 prime lens as a decently priced prime lens for the Sony NEX system. The Sony lenses tend to price on the higher side for equivalent prime lens performance compared to the Nikon 1 System or even for the Canon EOS M.
The lens is available currently for around $199.99. Check out Amazon or B&HPhoto for competitive pricing. Color options are black and silver. This allows for pairing with the various color NEX cameras. The focus ring is a bit looser than what you find on a Sony lens but build quality is quite nice based on my initial impressions. It comes with a lens hood and lens cap.

More thoughts to come after I spend some time with this prime. For review/testing I plan on pairing it with a Sony NEX-5N.
