The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.  | sent on November 21, 2019 Pros: It seems to use a fixed, and this for a zoom I think is the nicest compliment Cons: Painful caps at the Zeiss level, but just change them... Opinion: With this Art sigma's japs have really surpassed themselves, they have pulled out an incredible zoom (the brightest ever) that allows you to work on the classic focal 24, 28 and 35 as if you had a fixed. Yes, because the quality in each of these focal points is equal to or higher than that of the best, take a ride on the test of the 24-35 Nikon attack on Optical Limits (formerly Photozone) and then we talk about it. Embarrassing clarity, three-dimensionality and versatility (although it's just a 2x), unimpeachable assembly and excellent materials combined at an extremely advantageous price make it an essential optics for any lover of grandangles. What? Weighs? Well, it's an Art, and those like me who love this series don't really ask the problem. On my 850 it is perfectly balanced, very ergonomic and deadly, on yours you just have to try it... I recommend it, and as always I add "if you have the patience and expertise to perform the fine calibration of the maf with the appropriate Sigma dock". Otherwise forget it, don't waste time and settle for the Nikons, the Art is not for you. Why do I push myself to say that? I'll explain: several users have the courage to write "maf perfect, mine is not to be calibrated" but then when you go to see many photos on these reviews you realize that these gentlemen are blind, or do not know the meaning of focus , of the two o's. The Art are measuring tools and for their characteristics and their speed the fine calibration of the maf is mandatory, period. Then don't say I didn't warn you. |
  | sent on September 03, 2019 Pros: landscape versatility, uniform sharpness and egregious medium openings, uniqueness, construction superior to normal ARs but still not granite Cons: weight (unusable for street), focal excursion perhaps too small, actual utility Opinion: An optics that I really appreciated in Trentino, where trekking I could photograph everything from flowers to mountains (the opening and the slightest distance of MF help ). The strength of this lens is definitely the fact that it can be considered a "fixed", but it has the peculiarity of being able to vary the focal length. The quality of the shots is in fact well above a classic 16-35. The negative note is that the focal excursion is very small, so I would consider it more a 28mm than a croppa. We add how the weight is challenging, and on mirrorless it's really unbalanced (although it works well on Sony at communication and AF level). I see it well as an alternative to the classic 16-35 for a professional who wants to give a different "touch" to his photographs, but I do not consider it a must-buy lens that should inevitably be part of an amateur's kit. Given the size and price I would definitely prefer the 28mm 1.4 Art, cropping if necessary, or taking a few steps back. The 82mm filters were another "rip", not having that big ones, it prevented me from using the classic 77mm filters that more or less we all own. To praise the construction that echoes the philosophy of the SPORT series, that is, with the ghieres much more robust than a classic 35-50-85 ART. I do not know at the engineering level what exactly changes (if there is a higher amount of metal ), fact is that the robustness and feeling is definitely better than the tires of the aforementioned early ART. |
 | sent on April 01, 2019 Pros: Crisp and usable at all openings and focal lengths, excellent color rendition Cons: Overweight Opinion: I have this lens for a couple of months and I confirm what has already been written, very sharp at F2 great for night photography, if you want to appreciate the fine details of a better portrait close to f 2.5 or better yet f 2.8. I define a "generic" lens for my personal use, too short for portrait or too long when I need a large angle of field, certainly the best choice for those who do portraits set/ceremonies; Anyway you do not mistake a shot and take you home files from the quality and excellent color rendition. The vignetting is there at F2 and even over but just a click in camera raw (profile correction..) that pretty much disappears. If you really want to find a cons I say the overweight, 970 GR are made to feel on the species when you are traveling and by force of things you have to keep the equipment with you for several hours, for this reason I will change it for lenses more specific to my kind , having to make a choice in terms of weight, but always of this wonderful series. Sometimes I happened that the external lens is tarnishes and there is no way to dry it in the presence of moisture in my opinion due to the metal material used. |
 | sent on February 04, 2019 Pros: 3 fixed in one lens single, build quality, sharpness, AF Cons: Heavy, not weather sealed, the tires of the ring nuts are ruined by the rain Opinion: I'm in love with this lens. It's like having a 24 a 28 and a 35, fixed at the same time. The little focal excursion for me is a merit. You'll allow yourself to not lose the philosophy of the focal you're using. In Ceremony It is very convenient to have a 35 that becomes 24 or 28. Sure F2 is certainly not 1.4, but it is the price to pay. I use it on 6d which makes torque at 5d III which mounts either the 50mm or the 85mm. He's on the 6d I never unplugged it. Never calibrated |
 | sent on August 24, 2018 Pros: Excellent image quality, excellent construction, nice to see. Cons: Weight from zoom 70-200 2.8 Opinion: Sci-fi quality at all diaphragms and focal lengths. I use the above optics on Nikon DF and D810, and it is stratospheric in resolution and colors, always balanced. However, if I came back I would not make a similar purchase, I'm considering to take lenses dated type the fixed AfD 24,28,35, very compact and light, the same quality, today I do not understand why we tend to lighten the cameras and weigh the optics, Mahhhh, Mystery of sales. |
 | sent on May 18, 2018 Pros: F/2, sharpness, color rendering, construction, accepts filters (82 mm) Cons: The gasket is missing on the graft to prevent dust/moisture. 24 mm visible distortion. Vignetting at f/2. Opinion: Good lens. Better to consider it as a fixed 28 which if necessary opens to 24mm or closes at 35 mm because if you take it thinking about 24-70 obviously you will be disappointed by the limited focal length excursion. Sharp lens on the whole frame; It is a blade at almost all openings, it gives the best under f/8. It is like having in the bag 24mm 28 mm 35 mm all f/2; It does not replace a wide-angle pushed from 20 mm down (use alternatively the 20 Nikon 1.8 which is still less sharp at the edges, at least my specimen). Anyone accustomed to the 16-35 or similar will obviously lose a lot of coverage on the wide-angle side, but will gain F/2 on all focal lengths. Very full chromatic rendering, at all openings, similar to the performance Nikkor with treatment N. Only flaw distorts a bit at 24 mm but nothing that can not be fixed in PP (LR7 incorporates the correction profile). Excellent value for money for a lens that can be updated as well as calibrated at will via additional USB dock. I would say rated 10 according to my tastes, my needs and my finances (lacks the praise only for the distortion to 24mm). Update: Vignetting at f/2 is present but I find the correction profile in LR7 too aggressive. |
 | sent on May 03, 2018 Pros: Sharpness, fast and accurate af, f2, hardly any distortion, price Cons: no weather sealing, heavy, no stabilizer Opinion: In spite of the technical characteristics is not a zoom. The zoom range between 24 and 35 mm is really a small thing: you miss it the first time you turn the focus ring. Start from 24 mm and ends shortly thereafter. I would consider it a fixed from 24 mm which closes a bit. The limit is a 35 mm that opens a few degrees. Optically behaves like a fixed remaining constant at all focal lengths. Really very good sharpness already at room temperature. If you think about it for a moment with a 24 mm f/1.4 and a good sensor that allows some crop do more while saving nearly 300 Gr. But with only 500/600 euros a 24/35 used practically new is impossible to beat its great value/weight unless you buy, Canon at home, a 24 f 28 f 1.8 and 2.8 is a 35 f2 is that though, all together used, over 900 euros spent three separate objectives and with all the inconvenience. Highly recommended for landscape and architecture in 35 mm many consider it good for street. With the aps-h 1.3 multiplication factor becomes almost a normal really interesting. Is a strange perspective must really like that focal range otherwise better think of a 16-35 or anything like that. |
 | sent on April 15, 2018 Pros: Sharpness from f 2.5, range from street Cons: A little pensatino but not over the top Opinion: Let me start by saying that I don't mean of wide angles. I got this lens as all do for the holidays. The zoom range is one that interests me as over 35 mm still wouldn't use a zoom but I would attack the good 50 art. The doubt that I done in my head is what can be better, if it is, this lens optically than a 24-70 g2? I didn't like the first 50 50 art but wow is the beginning of tele, second is one of the most crisp goals ever. I could however make a comparison with the 28 1.8 g that I had and that I had some raw saved. I would say that this is in line with the first zoom lens nikon 1.8 G. Just one note, who says that calibrated in half an hour, sorry but I don't believe it, in half an hour you can calibrate a 50 art, but to make all the adjustments made 16 well of this 24-35 a few hours in focus takes quietly |
 | sent on February 13, 2018 Pros: Sharpness from fixed optics on all focal lengths, including edges. Vignetting and distortion equal to fixed focal lengths Cons: Weight. Limited focal excursion. Opinion: The optical quality of this zoom is not discussed. Excellent for weekly outings. At diaphragm f2 the images are a bit soft. From f 2.8 up to f.11 inclusive is spectacular. I've never taken a f16, so on this opening I can not judge. Coupled with the Canon 5 dsr allows unimaginable crop. On trips I would like to take it with me, but considering the weight and the limited focal length, it will stay home, replaced by the excellent Sigma Art 24-105 which gives f 5.6 up gives the same sharpness, except at the extreme edges where the 24 -105 can not keep up with 24-35, but much more flexible for greater focal length. Finally the colors that returns 24-35 I had never encountered them with any objective. |
 | sent on January 14, 2018 Pros: Sharpness, constructive quality, blurred, versatility! Cons: I do not know. Opinion: Given that I have the brothers fixed 35, 50 and 85 art that I took and keep me tight for quality and quantity, I owned as a handyman a tamron 24 70 for which the spark has never taken (but it is a formidable lens). Since I am more of a portraitist and still wanting to keep a handyman, I took this goal. The spark is triggered! The sharpness is typical of the art series and its revolutionary opening, makes you think that even having fixed lenses from 24 to 35 is completely useless and I have a 35 art! Versatile, you can go on vacation and travel with such an eye and accurately capture the light and colors of your places ... then if you want, turn the dial to 35, open everything and you will make a beautiful portrait to those who are with you . Satisfied. |
| sent on October 02, 2017 Pros: Sharpness, Colors, Brightness, Contrast, Possibility to Fit Filters Cons: Lack of tropicalization Opinion: Lens from 82mm diameter, with focal length 24 to 35, aperture 2.0, major optical construction with primordial lenses (LD, Super, etc ...). Great, recommended. It has incredible sharpness and superlative brightness. Closing to f4 has an even greater clarity but in low light settings it does not regret the 24th 1.4.rnNot painful note, which is felt most due to the length of the lens. My exemplary has no back / front focus problems, which is used without problems on 6d and 1dx. Almost every shot. A clear step forward for Sigma. Perfectly controllable distortion. Tridimensionality of the shot given by the excellent color rendering and contrast. In the backlight a few flare like other optics (but the situation was extreme, strong light source in a corner). |
 | sent on August 17, 2017 Pros: Impressive sharpness, fantastic colors, ART construction, a real masterpiece. Cons: The weight, but with a lens so inevitable. In addition to this, for me no one. Opinion: Great lens, aesthetically perfect, with quality tires and solid construction, zoom and fluid focus; Sharp at every focal point of a fixed and perhaps even better (see photo life review) with vibrant colors, giving the landscapes something idyllic. Since I've rarely removed the body from the body. In my model I did not have front back focus problems. Obviously this is a targeted choice given the short focal length, but if you are interested in extreme sharpness and chromatic rendering this lens is a real battle horse. Since it is not stabilized you have to be careful at guard times to avoid moving and holding hands, but it is not a problem if you like to shoot landscapes and photos that are not too dynamic. In my case it was love at first shot and I consider it the best lens I ever possessed. |
 | sent on January 28, 2017 Pros: wonderful sharpness, beautiful colors, qualities that reflect the ART Sigma series Cons: It 'a middle way not easy to accept, since it is very limited from 24 to 35. A bit of distortion to 24mm. Opinion: I upgrade my opinion after 1 month of utilizzo.rnQuesta lens is impressive ... the quality is wonderful. For F2, great, but to really see the wonders, close to f2.8, and you'll end color pictures, sharpness, really extraordinary impact. It 'a quality identical to the fixed Article 50 and 85. The only cons is not obviously have to stop more to F1.4. It is still undecided whether to keep it or directly use Article 35 F1.4. Only that happen, especially in the ceremonial, the need to fly a shorter focal, and have the opportunity to go down to 24 mm without changing lens is a great convenience. |
 | sent on November 10, 2016 Pros: Sharpness at all focal even at full aperture, brightness, building Cons: tropicalization (who needs it), weight (but remember that replaces three fixed lenses) and stabilization (but at what price?) Opinion: fantastic lens, open the first images I could not believe, at f2.8 with a focal 24, 28 and 35 also have razor sharp edges, very sharp f2 in the center with corners sharper still my ex Tamron 24-70 VR. beautiful colors, soft and pleasing blur, very good in the backlight. Vignetting present only to f2 and f2.8 slightly but very useable software (Lightroom use) unlike the Sigma 24-105 f4 Art I replaced, but other excellent lens produced in certain shots a vignette that I could not recover fully. AC almost non-existent and easily eliminated, ditto with distorsione.rnCostruzione solid and excellent aesthetics, hood well done, dial to the focus very wide and smooth manual. It 'a pleasure to hold it in mano.rnDifetti? RnBeh definitely not the cost because I was able to take on Amazon NEW just over 720 Euros and I am from 3 fixed f2 of excellent quality. Stabilization? NI ... too good but it certainly would have made more compromises without counting the price increase. rnTropicalizzazione? YES ... for those who bisogno, but for my use, I never happened to shooting under a rain torrenziale.rnNel my case no front / back focus so I do not have to buy the USB dock for a 40na the euro eliminates any possible defect problema.rnSi ... there would be, if you do not have other optical hike is the focal coverage is very narrow, it is not conclusive ... in my case, having a 14, 50, 85 and 105 fixed, it seems to me made. |
 | sent on January 07, 2016 Pros: Yield Optics, Constructive Quality, Price Cons: Weight, not Tropicalised, Filter 82mm Opinion: I purchased the lens a month ago, I can only speak well, divinely built, metal body, rubber rings with both excursion very soft. Optically speaking Whereas zoom is excellent, replaces (almost) quietly a fixed 24,28,35. TA also the results are really good. Not to tropical requires some forethought in more bad weather (if you can safely use drizzling). As far as the weight is a fine brick, but being all metal that could not be so. |
