Performance & handling Prime lenses are about as simple as can be in terms of handling. You have just two controls – the focus ring and (depending on your lens mount) the AF/MF switch.

Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM review
What a whopper! Sigma's 50mm f/1.4 is twice the size and weight of other similar lenses and has a colossal front element promising superior peripheral brightness (reduced corner shading) and improved contrast at wider lens apertures. The finish and the controls are rock-solid.

Really nice! Presumably better than the Canon 50 1.4!
Amazing lens! I absolutely love it - everything from build quality, Bokeh, image quality, this lens absolutely shines!

Best for optics and price as long as you can get a good autofocusing copy
I was weary to buy this lens due to many review of the autofocusing not behaving. I bought 2 copies to hope that one would work with my camera. I noticed within the two copies that one was softer than the other. The autofocus is also not super at low light situations.

Sigma 50mm f1.4 EX DG HSM
The 'EX' in the name denotes this lens's superior optical and build quality, the 'DG' means that it's optimised for the smaller sensor areas of most DSLRs but will still work on a full-frame camera, and the 'HSM' stands for 'Hyper-Sonic Motor', Sigma's proprietary high-speed autofocus technology.

Every camera film or digital has set a benchmark. The images are truly world class and delivers excellent contrast and sharpness even in low light conditions.

Sigma IQ favorably compared to Canon L!
Required factory focus recalibration. Still slightly front focusing, most noticeable wide open when there's little DOF. Re calibration process was painless. I paid to ship lens and camera body to sigma in Long Island NY, and they took it from there. Got it back in a few working days.
Pros:
- Image Quality Bokeh Fast
- Nice Bokeh
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Blurry Focus

Yes, this lens is worth $1,000. Here's why.
My reaction to every fast lens Sigma release seems to be "I can't believe something this good costs less than $1,000." A new favorite -- the 50mm f1.4 DG HSM -- joins Sigma's Art series of lenses, which already includes two of my all-time sub-$1K favorites, the 35mm f1.4 and 18-35mm f1.8 .
Pros:
- The Sigma 50mm f1.4 lens is a well-designed lens that performs very well for its price
Cons:
- It would be nice if it had image stabilization
