Pros: f 1.8 constant on all focal lengths, Art sharpness, Art robustness

Cons: not received

Opinion: We cannot speak of the 50-100 individually but in my opinion we must evaluate it together with its worthy partner, Art 18-35 f 1.8. Optics of excellence for those who have a robust and performing apsc body, really allow you to make the most of even the densest sensors. Record brightness, unparalleled optical performance, great sharpness and a color palette that is not cold but rather pastel. Fast AF, a minimum of physiological vignetting at TA, which is also pleasant. Construction of excellence, brass bayonet for both and, hear hear, in addition to 3 FLD lenses our 50-100 - in order to facilitate burst shots - also boasts a superb 9-blade diaphragm in carbon fiber! In short, if produced by Canon or Nikon this gem would not have cost less than 3000 euros, and I do not exaggerate. Both are "only" 2x zoom and also one from telephoto to telephoto and the other from wide angle to wide angle, moreover without the additional lenses that would have imposed a possible VR. Everything is paid with really important size and weight but this can not be considered a defect, with those characteristics the project specifications can not provide anything else. What can I say, in Nikon (which is what I know) with these two zooms you build a winning combination with the formidable D500 (maybe with battery grip to stabilize it), something that will never make you regret a full frame! For other lightweight bodies (D7200, D7500 etc.) I see better the classic nikon 16-80, more suitable for that class. The caps are the shameful ones of all time, to be replaced immediately perhaps with those nikon. And to close the usual recommendation: the Art are super performing lenses with an incredible quality-price ratio, but DO NOT BUY THEM if you are not going to spend time calibrating them with the dock station, you would be disappointed. And in this case, being zoom, estimate at least two or three hours if you are good ...

Pros: Sharpness, MAF speed, color rendering, overall quality.

Cons: Weight and for those who work with Canon, zoom dial that rotates backwards.

Opinion: After months of use and thousands of shots taken with this lens, I think I can have my say on this "particular" lens, unique in its 50-100 excursion that theoretically could make it seem "limited" compared to the classic 70-200 but that, born for Aps-c, makes it excellent for indoor sports which is then the use I make of it. Very sharp and usable already at 1.8, on R7 it focuses lightning fast and keeps it on bursts of even 10-12 frames, the colors are perfect without any dominant, the rings are fluid and the tripod ring, fixed even if rotatable, does not disturb in their use. To the touch it is a pleasure, like all Art, weighs, of course, a zoom f / 1.8 on the entire focal range is normal that it weighs, but once you see the results, the fatigue is quickly forgotten. The lack of stabilization is brilliantly compensated by the IBIS of the R7 even if, for the use I make of it, I would not have suffered the lack anyway. I also use it on R6 where, however, "vignettava" very little, too bad that with the latest firmware update Sigma has decided to make it "Canon", in the sense that the R6 immediately recognizes that it is a lens for Aps-c and automatically sets the "crop ratio / size" to 1.6, consequently reducing the file size. Too bad because, as mentioned, vignettava little and cropping the image "manually", the file size would have remained considerably larger and consequently also more workable. However, just shoot as you did once and the problem is almost solved. The only negative note I found, working with Canon, is the direction of rotation of the zoom ring: I wonder why Sigma decided to rotate it backwards, since I think almost all the other Sigma (I have the 24-105 Art, I had the 17-50 and the 10-20) rotate in the direction "Canon" and when you work with 2 bodies at the same time - especially in sports - it is not at all easy to have to remember the sense rotation of one or the other zoom... I just didn't understand this!

Pros: Sharpness, Brightness, Solidity, Price

Cons: Only APS-C, Weight, not tropicalized.

Opinion: Along with the 18-35mm Art is the best for Aps-C, it also covers the H format. The weight is there but it is a fixed f1.8. With a robust machine body there are no particular problems. Relatively low price for features. The stabilizer would be useful but would further increase the size. Limited excursion due to the opening but excellent for various types of portraits and not only. Not suitable for those looking for lightness and portability. If it were also for FF I would be very happy.

Pros: Sharpness, precision in the maf, excellent blur to TA, great focal range, robust, fluid ringing the right

Cons: Heavy, especially on the pulse, early consumption of stamped numbers, difficult to attach the hood, unstable, non-tropicalized

Opinion: Bought with 18/35 for color rendering, sharpness, precision and sniper speed, combined with the fact that it covers all the important focal points at 1.8, I think is among the best for dx. Also used for landscaping, does not regret the cost to sustain it to buy it. It gives a nice feeling of solidity in your hand. Unfortunately, the numbers that indicate focals are already partially deleted, but maybe it will be a defect of mine. Promoted!

Pros: materials, sharpness, lightning-fast and accurate auto focus and aperture to 1.8, rne the convenience of having a single objective in place of + fixed lens

Cons: First the weight is felt, the lack of stabilizer with freehand shots could help out in + ... it is not weather sealed. Just to APSC

Opinion: And 'the perfect lens for those who want to have one goal instead of various fixed. I have used in the D500 coupled an entire evening at the theater with dancers and I must say that, apart from the weight that is felt in the long run, the result was excellent The only problem I found, if we want to call apart from those listed above, it is the bracket of the tripod that hinders a bit when you have to zoom.
