Opinion: Dimensions and mass perfectly adapted to the eos 70 d, a quality construction in the line "Art", an incredible brightness, a very silky bokeh and a formidable sharpness : the Sigma Art 24 mm f / 1.4 (equivalent 38 mm mounted on the 70 d) is an optical that I had the pleasure to discover through various subjects, from the inevitable sunset on the ocean to the reportage, by way of the portrait in interior.
Contrary to what I feared, the lack of stabilization is not penalizing. In addition, the manual focus ring is nice and there was no need to make autofocus adjustments. In short : a very beautiful optics !
The following opinions have been automatically translated with Google Translate.
Cons:If we want to find it, isn't it tropicalized Peso?
Opinion:Mounted for a couple of years on the EOS R It is the only NON-Canon lens I own and the most important being a landscape designer. As mentioned, the only flaw is the fact of not being tropicalized and in the landscape photo is not a small problem but x the rest is a bomb! One of those lenses that I will probably never sell, always sharp and reliable! Maybe x someone can also be a problem the weight but on 13kg of backpack I do not think that buying a lens from 200gr less there is a big difference
Cons:For me, as an irremediably amateur photographer, it is very difficult to exploit. I have a D200, a D7200, and a D810. Tried on all but with fluctuating results: sometimes very good other times worse for example than those I get easily with the sigma 24-50 2.8 HSM
Opinion:Given the price, it seems to me that it is a suitable optics for those who are experienced and have a way to manage its qualities. I'll try it a little more intensively in streetphoto, but I'm really tempted to sell it to replace it with a quality 28-70 sigma suitable for the D810. I have not done it yet because I would not like to spend a figure and find myself with a lens equal to or slightly better than the aforementioned Sigma 17-50 which, on the D810 despite being a DX optics, gives very satisfactory results for me. I understand that the opinion of a mediocre amateur like me is to be taken with springs, but this review is aimed at many other amateurs who perhaps hope to make a qualitative leap using renowned and emblazoned optics. My experience, for what it can count, is that if you do not have sufficient technical skills, it is better to try with the help of some friends or a shopkeeper available the lenses you would like to buy and choose those with which you can quickly find the right feeling. Rce Palermo, for example, has a lot of patience and lets you do many tests before buying.
Opinion:I admit that I have almost never used wide angles. Before leaving for a trip they convinced me to try it and I took it. Used on Canon Eos R mirrorless. Simply amazing. Well balanced, af performing, amazing image quality, I did not expect it. I used it for both set portraits and narrow portraits and I am very satisfied. Absolutely pleasant blur and precise focus. Reading some reviews I can not express opinions on the yield on traditional SLRs and on any problems of back / front focus, but on the Eos R has not missed a beat. The only images not perfectly in focus are due to my mistakes in shooting. The lack of stabilization I do not think is a problem, especially on a 24 f 1.4
Cons:On paper nothing but I have to say AF and build quality, backlight. It is not stabilized.
Opinion:It opened in my hand. Yes, I think that is the main thing to say. I was traveling and the bayonet came off my lens body. It clicked but no longer communicated the exifs. He played a game of one or two millimeters. Back home the assistance changed the part under warranty, however I was always afraid it would recur and I sold the replacement copy. On Canon, the AF was sometimes precise, other times it never got it right. In any case, never as fast as a USM but more like an STM. If I had not been burned by this traumatic event I would have said exceptional optics, blurred by fear, sharpness in abundance, minimal chromatic aberrations. Maybe a little faint in the backlight. Remarkable 3D rendering, I miss it a bit but I'm afraid to buy it. Weight and dimensions are perfect. Unfortunately it is not stabilized. For the price he has now used, around 500 euros I would recommend it if it is in good condition.
