Both Adorama (click here) and B&H (click here) have the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM available for pre-order at the price of $499.
DPreview added a sample pic gallery to their preview of Canon’s EOS 100D / Rebel SL1. They shot using the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM (price & specs) and EF 40mm f/2.8 STM (price & specs) pancake lenses, and cover different subjects and lighting conditions. Note that they used a pre-production model to shot. That’s to say that the image quality may be different for the production models, although it is unlikely to be so much different.
