Pros: Sharpness

Cons: Ugly bokeh. Size and weight.

Opinion: Mixed feelings. Sharpness is outstanding, but I have been using the Zeiss 35/2 much more. Reasons are, Zeiss behaves better in low light situations (no loss of contrast...), has better bokeh, and is much easier to handle. The wide aperture of the Sigma should be a plus, but bokeh tends to be ugly because of double edging, a consequence of spherical aberrations being overcorrected. Bottom line, it is gathering dust. On stopping down (around f/5.6-f/8), the bokeh issue vanishes, but Zeiss and Sigma are on a par then (even with a D800), conclusion: see above.

Pros: Sharp wide open, Price, Colour, Build Quality

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: Quality of the Art series lenses, remarkable brightness even today, precise autofocus... a canonical Sigma ART, in short.

Cons: Can I say anything ?

Opinion: Excellent purchase used on MPB, for mint condition and with Pentax K mount - which is now problematic more than rare - fits perfectly on the K1 II. Balanced, on a massive and heavy camera body it does not unbalance it at all, indeed it falls well in the hand. The colors are excellent, having had the 50 f/1.4 ART on Canon I could say that I already knew it, the detail and engraving I expected them like this and so I found them again. The AF is perfect, it didn't need calibration at the moment; I am happy with the price and above all with the overall quality, as well as the possibility of using it on a second FF body, then returning to shoot with a fixed one makes me happy. Maybe on a smaller or lighter body it can look massive, not in my case. Vote 9 full.

Pros: Image Quality, True Colors

Cons: weight, problem of continuous fire coupled to the Lumix s1r (solved after various and varied sieves).

Opinion: I bought this lens with L mount mount for my Lumix s1r camera, because I switched from the micro4/3 system to the FF, so the focal lengths I use for my photography are 85 mm ( I took 85 mm f1.8 Lumix), I was missing the 35 mm, so given the opportunity to take the Sigma 35 mm art. f1.4 DG HSM, and intrigued by the excellent reviews I opted for this lens instead of the Lumix one. The first impression you perceive, holding it in your hand is THE WEIGHT, undeniable, due to the 1.4 aperture, the materials used and the optical group. Then mounted on a tank like my Lumix S1R, together they reach a considerable weight, but gives the feeling of sturdiness. This lens together with the Lumix gives a frightening image quality even in terms of colors, I do very little to post/produce photos, I just have to apply the lens correction, then the image is already good like this. The sore point for that has a Lumix s1 doing the various tests, I realized that the 35 mm Art F1.4 continuous focus did not lock on to the subject, the focus motor flickered, while with the single or manual focus excellent. Given the problem I start to see various comments, where I notice that other people have had the same problem, but I have not found how to fix it. So I did a thousand tests, a thousand attempts, until I was almost exhausted and to the point of giving away a lens that I had fallen in love with, by pure chance in the settings of the Lumix I come across the zoom option in the focus, I activate that option and 'the problem solved, now I'm very happy to have this lens in my kit. (Clarification all sigma HSM lenses give this problem on the LUMIX S1, but with this resolution they are all fine.)
