Sorry, it was too easy... shot on the 3. Mobile Me hosting is not doing these files justice - wicked sharp!
Best $400 point and shoot ever.

Yes, specifically when switching from playback of an image to live view (ready to take a new photo). It is almost instantaneous on the 7, takes a while on the 3.nice birds!!! they must have let you get up close to capture those with 30mm.
So what you are saying about the 30mm causing slow wake ups seems to be an issue on the Nex 3 but not the nex 7?
I'll give it a try on the 7 but don't think that helps on the 3 when I don't have the accessory flash attached (can't turn on Remote Commander).I also just heard of a great workaround for using the Sigma so it never sleeps (forces you to turn the power off instead.) Apparently the camera never sleeps when Remote Commander mode is activated. I'm not a big fan of devices that sleep automatically, I want the control even if it adversely affects battery life.
Yeah, I ended up selling my Zeiss 24 the other day. Great lens, but I prefer the focal length and size of the Sigma. The slow startup time does annoy me a bit, though. I hope the upcoming fast, standard prime from Sony isn't large, because that may be my best option.For now, the Zeiss stays on the 7 and the Sigma on the 3. Just got it yesterday so I need to spend more time with it. '
The only issue I have with it so far is the wake (or switch from playback to live view) time on the 3. It takes about, wait for it... 3 seconds. Too slow. The Zeiss responds much quicker.
On the 7, the Sigma speeds up its act for the most part.
and some don't :ROTFL:some say leica does the most natural greens
