Cons: Nothing, Maybe 67mm filter thread should have been 72mm.
Opinion: This is a great lens. Every bit as good as the Canon 35mm 1.4L. i find the lens sharp wide open at 1.4. the colour and pop you get is great. I use it for travel and street photography. I have done a mini review with sample photos on my webpage, www.gormteper.net/reviews/sigma-35mm-f1-4-art/. See photos on my webpage and Juza profile. Highly recommend!!!
Pros: fantastico a 1.4, pochissime aberrazioni cromatiche, pochissima distorsione abbastanza definito(quando mette a fuoco...)
Cons: Autofocus lento ed impreciso, completamente inattendibile, eccessiva vignettatura(correggibile senza troppi problemi in Post Produzione).
Opinion: Fantastico a 1.4 ma da 2.8 in po non mi ha stupito più di tanto. Il problema maggiore è l'autofocus completamente inconsistente, ho perso giorni a fare microregolazione sulla mark 2 da vicino infatti è ok, il problema sono i punti laterali che non mettono completamente a fuoco per non parlare poi da lontano dove sbaglia fuoco anche col centrale e con scatto a 5.6. Insomma il mio sarà stato un caso sfortunato, aspetto di provarne un altro per vedere se posso cambiare idea, visto che ora come ora è un obiettivo inutilizzabile a meno che non si voglia utilizzare solo in live view o per scattare solo col centrale statue. Mi sta venendo il dubbio che l'usb dock station non sia un optional ma un obbligo...
Avuto il secondo esemplare devo dire che fa cagare come il primo. Mi spiace ma ha seri problemi di messa a fuoco come il primo, sarà che è della stessa "annata" 012(2012).

Pros:Sharpness, blurry, construction and image quality (when AF works)
Cons:Unconstant AF, F/B focus issues, color gamut
Opinion:Reluctantly I had to give up sigma 35 art after 5 months of use. Reluctantly because when the shot is right it is really magical. Assuming that the purchase of an f 1.4 lens is motivated by the use of large openings (for a 35 species for the set portrait) the strengths of this lens are the sharpness already at TA and its magical blurry, especially the ability to "detach" the subject from the background. The problem of this lens is known, especially on CANON (as far as I am concerned): 1) calibration because of the F/B focus that I had solved anyway with Dock station 2) inconstancy of the AF, out of 10 photos 4 were to be thrown away and when you make street or simply photos that are not portrayed posing it is frustrating to open the raw and see that out of 10 shots it gets about half of it. And it is not a problem of F/B focus because once properly calibrated this is solved. Another flaw, this cmq easily remediated in post and that did not affect my yield, is the strong chromatic abbreviation to large openings, especially on contrasted backgrounds (but also not too much). In conclusion, I reluctantly had to give up in favor of the much more expensive Canon 35 mm F.1.4 L USM II, taken used with sigma trade-in and related economic sacrifice. From the first tests the Canon doesn't miss a beat but I reserve a review later. As for Sigma Art, the quality of the lens is very high, perhaps it did not go well with my 6D II or more simply my specimen was not lucky. I don't feel like making bad judgments because the quality is there and you see it, but the reliability is really minimal and this has been frustrating for me.
Cons:Weight but you know it at the time of purchase.
Opinion:I've been chasing this lens for many years, its myth is now on everyone's mouth, and I decided to buy it when I switched to FF to complete with the kit I have. Immediately you can feel the weight, the footprint and the solid construction all in metal and after a few shots a sublime empathy really arises. This is a focal point that must please especially on FF, because for many it is a middle ground, but personally I prefer it to 50mm. After taking it as a prescient, I dabbled with a few test shots here and there, but after a shoot with a future mom I appreciated the optical qualities and the stories that are heard around, I can say that at f/1.4 the focus part is already of an absurd sharpness, closing even more is top really, Personally I snapped at f/8 and the model's skin was all too sharp, so I really recommend not going beyond f/5.6 also to give a naturalness and not having to work too much in post production. Moreover, it has natural colors, creamy and uniform blurry and does not suffer from chromatic aberrations, the focus is quite rapid, at least on my EOS R, where precisely you do not need the dock, which I recommend instead for the DSRL system. For me I vote 9.5.
Cons:Vignetting watering and focus calibration that seems random
Opinion:Bad lens, it costs a lot and has been calibrated at random, putting it in place is a feat with the dock. Buy a Nikon or Canon and have fun. Bad even in the nuances it captures doesn't actually capture them at all. Monochrome, heavy. I'm going to add random words to get to the 350 minimum juza because I don't know what to say anymore that the lens is obscene and it's absolutely not even worth half the necessary words that juza instead considers minimal
