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.
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).

Opinion:I was looking for a quality 35mm to accompany my EOS R, I was undecided between this Sigma Art and the 35 1.4L (first version) of Canon. I opted for the sigma to save some money, it is used between 400 and 500 euros against about 700 of the L series. Let's start with the negative sides: it is a heavy and cumbersome optics. Of course, compared to sigma's other Art series lenses, the 35mm is the "more compact" version, but let's not kid ourselves: on the R it looks like a cannon, and the weight does not help; if we add to this a frankly somewhat plastic construction, we can safely say that we expect more from a lens that is sold as "professional". The point, however, is that it is an extraordinary lens, and at the exact moment in which you download the files to the computer to give us an eye and make the usual changes, you are amazed. At full aperture it is a blade in the center, the sides suffer from a minimum of vignetting that I must say but gives a "dreamy" effect to the photo. It has a soul all its own: the colors are cold, tending to blue, with a style very similar to ZEISS lenses. The autofocus is a splinter, with the AF system of the R it becomes really difficult to find yourself with a shot that is not perfectly in focus, even at full aperture. Then in short, a 1.4 lens allows night use, with really interesting results. To get the most definition just close to F2.8. Last thing: since I mounted the 35 Art I left in the drawer all the other optics I had; it will be the focal length, it will be the ability to churn out impressive colors, it will be personal taste ... but this lens is really a lot of stuff. In short, considering the quality / price ratio I think it is one of those lenses that can not be missing in the kit of any amateur photographer.
Cons:the weight and bulk but similar to others, sometimes the autofocus
Opinion:I have owned this lens for a few months now and it is widely tested in numerous fashion, commercial, portraiture, wedding photo shoots, in any situation it has a crazy sharpness on the whole frame and a cleanliness in the shot, with little vignetting and chromatic aberrations that has nothing to do with other lenses. I use it on the D750 and for a few months on the Z6 where it has regained speed and accuracy of autofocus. The only disadvantage if you can say so is bulk and weight, in the sense that in certain situations I understand a more compact and discreet lens can be more comfortable, for 90% of the work on official services this gives you an extra gear and it is also the lens that allows you to do a little 'everything with a fixed.
