is this good deal? 24mm lens is also on sale for $280.
When I've been capturing video I've found more use for the 35mm. My friend who's a professional photographer uses his 24mm way more than I do for wide nature shots. It all depends on what you're capturing. Also, yes both lenses are a good deal.

I haven't used these specific ones, but I do use the Sigma 35mm and 24mm f1.4 on my RP camera and love both focal lengths. 35 will definitely be a bit more natural looking without much distortion, especially for stuff like portraits. Lovely depth of field on the 1.4 and I assume the 1.8 won't be too different from that. Great overall/general purpose lens.
I've also been loving the 24mm lately for fashion work. It gives a wider view and has more distortions, but "works" with the fashion/edgy type of artistic shots. Also works very nice for street photography if you want to do anything creative.
The 35mm is the safer lens though, and works better overall for a very pleasing frame without needing to work weird angles to make a shot look good.
Great lens and great price. My favorite prime focal length. Good for video, good IS, sharp wide open, lightweight. I paid $400 new in May and have been very pleased with it.
