I recently bought a Sigma 30mm f/1.4 to accompany my Nikon D60.

At first I was disappointed with some severe issues with front focus. It was really bad since I could see it even at long range photos. But, the local Sigma service point did it’s best and tweaked the sigma to my body. The results was astonishing. A strange thing is that Sigma overexposes about 0.7EV. But you can fix that (if you want) quite easily by setting a -0.7EV on your camera.

On the comparison there are various shots from f/1.4 to f/16 and all are compared to the Nikkor 18-55 VR. The last, is the normal kit lens that comes with the D60 and it’s quite good.

You can see below the Original image (scaled) taken at f/8 with the Sigma (EV-0.7).
