Amazing lens at an amazing price! I'm so glad Sony is allowing 3rd-party lens manufacturers to flourish. I've got my eye on a couple Sigma and Tamron lenses. 😊

[sigmaphoto]

Great video! Always appreciate the positive feedback. And stunning images + sample footage!

[jakeconnelly]

Been shooting on a Sigma DC DN 30mm f1.4 for about 6 months now, and it's fantastic. For the price to quality, Sigma is absolutely nailing their Sony lenses.

[KEHA]

Great review. I especially appreciate the comparison between the 85 and the 50!

[CamperIV]

Sigma is crushing it lately. 100-400 then 50mm 1.4 and 85mm 1.4, damn.

I have the old style Sigma 50mm F1.4 (the heavy af one) for my Sony A7ii. I use this lens mainly for car photography and I prefer this lens over my others. This prime lens is extremely sharp and AF is respectable. If anyone is thinking about picking up this lens, do it. You get what you pay for and for the price of this lens you really get a well put together lens.

I have the Zeiss 55 and I'm seriously considering swapping it for the Sigma 50. I have the Sigma 14-24 and the 100-400 and am really impressed with the quality of Sigma lenses. Thanks for helping me choose.

[PIXELvoiz]

Thank you very much mafia and wife doing this for very long time!

[eddiegee]

Imo, fx30 it's price not worth it for Aps-c camera, not FF? You better off with used Sony a7S3 or Lumix S5II. Nice lens though.

[craigradix]

I got mines yesterday and went shooting instantly. Even though it has a little weight, but I'll get use to it. Love the results so far.

[ooharloo]

I personally love sigmas Art DG DN feel and design over Sonys offering from their GM line.

Great review, thanks for sharing. If Sigma has competitive AF now, their main disadvantage has been overcome. After memories of using DSLR live view with the older HSM model, I’m really happy for them to have a complete product. As always, beautiful images and sublime broken. If there’s better lenses out there, it’s something you’d hardly have to consider at this level of quality.

I have a Sony 6000, and hired the sigma 150-600 and managed a few frames today and boy where there wasn't camera shake the images are incredibly sharp. because of the weight it won't be my every day lens

I had bought 2 sigma lenses back in the 90s for my Nikon N90. These were the old screw drive lenses. And they always had a slight focus issue, especially the 28-70mm I had. From then on I kind of vowed to never go third party again. Fast forward to the sigma ART series after hearing all the reviews about the 35 and 50 ART I caved and bought the 35mm ART for Nikon F mount for my D800 at the time. It was an amazing lens and had only a slight focusing issue at infinity which was visible at F1.4. Thankfully, adapted on my mirrorless Nikon I don’t see any issues with focusing so far. It’s a very sharp lens for less money than the Nikon 35mm F1.4.

Brilliant video, thanks for shooting so many portraits that is exactly what I wanted to see by way of assessment 👍

[john_in_Berlin]

Absolutely agree. Like the clean script delivery. And wow, quite the model! Fun that she's game to help her photographer husband (I speak from experience). Son is rocking that car! 😂 At the end of the day it's about that: using tech that just does its job to help us capture the moments with the people we're sharing our lives with. Great work.

[Pontcher]

I'll wait for the Viltrox LAB launch, i think that viltrox will come with incredible lens. Hoping that have same optical quality of sigma art and lighter body.

[witkes]

How it compare to Sigma 56 1.4 DC DN when using APS-C camera🧐

[regclayton]

Well done Arthur. Focusing (ouch) on photography over equipment is good advice for anyone moving up from cellphone cameras.
Tough not to get caught up in gear acquisition with so many choices out there (guilty). Been with the a6400 and Sigma 30mm f1.4 going on three years and very happy with the setup.
Thanks

I currently own the Sigma 35 1.4, 50 1.4, 24-70 2.8 and 85 1.4
