50mm is the focal length most used by doyens like Ansel Adams . This lens justifies it's position for being among the sharpest 50mm ever produced. It's sheer poetry to play with this piece of art. Just wished Sigma started developing weather sealing to it's Art armoury.

Excellent tool for three quarter and full length studio shooting, and most work,this is the lens of first choice for day to day shooting both inside and outside. The quality when attached to a full frame FX body is quite unbelievably good,It has been said that this lens is bulky however to achieve...

The Sigma 50mm F1.4 DG HSM is a fast and tack-sharp lens, both in the centre and at the edges of the frame, with virutally no evidence of chromatic aberrations and very little distortion.

Another fantastic performer. Sigma has been getting serious for some years now, and each and every Art series lens I have bought I have been most impressed with. Some years ago I told myself that I would never sell this or that genuine Canon L series lens in my extensive collection.

Fantastic lens. Tack sharp and creamy bokeh. Nice solid feel to it. Use this with my Nikon D810 which requires the best glass. Recommend this lens. Thanks for having it in stock.

Sigma has added to their 'Art' range of fast aperture lenses with this new 50mm f/1.4 lens, which will be available to fit Canon, Nikon, Sony and Sigma SLR cameras. This lens costs around ￡850, which seems like an awful lot for a 50mm f/1.4 lens.

Sigma recently announced pricing on their newly redesigned and reengineered (and not-yet-released!) 50mm f/1.4 prime lens, which sits on their Art Line. Many photographers consider a 50mm prime to be their go-to, foundational lens size, so it was exciting being able to try out a lens that has...

Back when we originally tested the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG AF lens , the first in Sigma's new high-end Art series to be released, we weren't just impressed, we were eager to see what would come next.

Although zoom lenses are certainly versatile and convenient, they do have some drawbacks, including relatively small maximum apertures.

This is one sharp and contrasty lens! Even wide open the central portion of the image is totally usable. Stop the lens down to f/2 and most of the frame is super sharp. From f/2.8 it's tack sharp from corner to corner. Colour and contrast are excellent too.

Wide aperture; super sharp; fast autofocus; good build quality
