AF did not work at all when the lens was shot on a D800E for the first time. After searching the internet for help I learned that the lens must be sent to Sigma together with the camera. The lens will then be adjusted to the specific camera individually without any charge.
Pros:
- Excellent ultra-sharp images even at max aperture
- High resolution and contrast
Cons:
- Needs service before used for the very first time
- No aperture ring

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

What a lens, haven't really taken it off my d750. Super fast and great for portraits, clean crisp and fast. A little heavy but nothing really to worry about.

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.

Love it!
Well worth the money!! I love only had for a few weeks, but I feel it is one of the best investments ever I've made.

Sigma AF 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM | A ("Art") (Nikon FX) - Review / Test Report
From the fast primes that Sigma has introduced so far, this is probably the best one, yet. The resolution is impressive, CAs and distortion are well under control. Vignetting is quite pronounced at large apertures, but that's not really a surprising result for such a fast lens.

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.
Pros:
- Superb optics that beat anything else in its class
- Impressive flare resistance
- Fast
- silent
- and accurate autofocus
- Excellent build quality
- Very competitive price
Cons:
- Slightly fussy rendition of out-of-focus backgrounds under some conditions
- No weather sealing
