Pros: open paints closed engraving

Cons: nothing

Opinion: If you want details close at F8. If you want blurred open, but leave at home a bit of detail engraved and lose something at the edges. Excellent portrait lens and not only, you can do everything and in the long run it has no defects. The blur is pleasant and gradual, even better than other more noble. The construction is solid, it is not a plasticone.

Pros: When it hits the focus it is sharp, with beautiful colors and definition.

Cons: He misses the focus in 50 percent of the shots. On 6D even with micro adjustment mistakes from afar, then adjusting mistakes closely and vice versa. Unable to achieve consistent results.

Opinion: Purchased some time ago as a user of the site... it seemed I had managed to adjust it but this was not the case. It is impossible to obtain an adjustment that makes consistent and acceptable results. It has been lying in the drawer for two years, I do not feel like reselling it in these conditions and to what I understand not even the sigma service center can solve the problem.

Pros: All

Cons: Nothing

Opinion: Excellent optics on both aps-c and full-frame. Excellent sharpness even at full aperture, at f8 extraordinary, does not suffer from chromatic aberration nor appear annoying flares in the backlight. I have used it in many situations, always with noteworthy results. I don't part with it anymore. Excellent for urban views, portraits and pure landscapes. It is priced at a ridiculous price and is worth much more than certain Canon L-series lenses.

Pros: I'm comfortable on both full frame and aps-c and that's enough for me.

Cons: Sometimes the focus makes a close eye to the opening max but we talk about laughable depth of field. Raw vignette at maximum openings with viltrox adapters on canon m50 at least in my specimen.

Opinion: Tried on the m50 canon with the viltrox adapter without lenses, on the short sides with diaphragms more open than 2.8 you see the semi-circular shadow darker than the diaphragm disappearing after the 2.8. A vignette that disappears only by setting the square format 4000x4000 or cropping to 16 mpx. When used with the viltrox speedbooster 0.71x with lenses the machine reads a more open diaphragm. So f1 to f11. The same problem with the vignette on the short sides to which is added a dark hot spot in the center that disappears after f2.8 Return usable on canon m50 after 2.8 with surgical focus. In practice you have to ignore the more open stops Precise that both viltrox do not give boredom with other lenses that I own and the sigma 50 1.4 ex dg not from boredom on full frame or aps-c I think it is the not particularly successful pairing. For the rest I am satisfied.

Pros: Sharpness, excellent color yields, bokeh.

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I used this lens first on aps-c sony A300 and now on the FF a99II, what to say, excellent color yield, bokeh to f. 1.4 fantastic and formidable detail, the weight balances perfectly with the machine and does not detract from it ,excellent handling and robustness. Lightning autofocus thanks to the ultrasonic engine. He never let me down, so happy to have bought it.
