Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art
This is the first f/1.4 lens for Nikon that I wouldn't hesitate using wide open, leaving little to be desired. With the possible exception of the 35/1.4 AFS G Nikkor, compared to other f/1.4 Nikkors optics in the 35/50 class, it is relatively free of coma and spherical aberration that hindered wide...
Pros:
- High overall IQ
- great AF focus accuracy
- very high build quality for a non-OEM lens
Cons:
- Corner falloff wide open
- focuses in the opposite direction of Nikkor lenses and lack of weather sealing gasket on lens mount

Unfortunatley when I received the lens in the mail, the Autofocus wasn't working. It took gorgeous photos when in the manual setting but to spend $700 on a lens just to have the Autofocus not work is crappy. The company has other reviews of this happening so it could be a manufacturing issue.

Sigma has produced some really fine lenses over the past few years, including the 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM (which we liked a lot when we reviewed it in 2008 ) and the 85mm F1.4 EX DG HSM . But the 35mm F1.4 DG HSM may possibly be its best yet.
