Gorgeous lens!

I usually write reviews only when I am angry and not happy , but this is my first time I am writing a review about something I really love! this lens is amazing, I could not believe I could take such amazing sharp pictures. I love it to the maximum, a bit heavy, but it worth every penny .

Heavy

The 85mm features a fast maximum aperture of f/1.4, working in perfect harmony with its 9 rounded diaphragm blades to produce beautiful bokeh in the out-of-focus areas.

Wow! Another top lens from Sigma's Art series. I am very impressed with the quality of this beast. The Sigma 85mm is fast, well built but large and heavy, but it is a FF f1.4. The bokeh is buttery smooth. Great contrast, vibrant colour producing a very sharp image.

This lens produces extraordinary images. It is an important addition to the Art Series of lenses from Sigma. While this focal length is considered a portrait lens, this new lens is ideal for isolating individual subjects within a scene with the beautiful bokeh this lens produces.

Very heavy but fantastic lens. I would say worth its weight in gold but its stupidly heavy so probably not!

Ever since Zeiss announced their Otus lens lineup, a race of catching up is on by the other vendors. The game started with the 50mm class and it moved on to 85mm lenses. This time we'll have a look at the latest contender here - the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 HSM DG Art.

5 Stars all around. This is a great lens. I have it paired with my crop sensor Canon Rebel T3i and it's still amazing. This is definitely a heavy lens so prepare to work out at least your grip hand lol but absolutely no complaints. Will probably be the only portrait lens I will need to use.
