Cons:Barrel distortion - no stabilizer - marked detachment between focal planes at T.A.
Opinion:Taken used at about 320€ x M3 and M6 old - I have many lenses around this focal length, including EF 50 f 1.8 STM, EF 50 f 1.4, kamlan 50 f 1.1 and many vintage Mf ---- it is a quality glass, with natural color rendering and strength in the reproduction of detail, which remains good even at T.A. - this can be a pro or a con, for example in portraiture, where sometimes, I prefer the softer rendering and the colors of the Ef 50 f 1.4 --- just to make the comparison, the Ef is much more progressive, in the detachment between the focal planes at T.A. ---- the Sigma is a glass whose behavior in various situations must be known - on subjects that fill the frame and where the background is marginal, all its potential comes out, where at T.A. you appreciate the rendering of detail and blur - if instead you use it in close-up settings, where the background requires soft and progressive blur .... the problems begin - the subject benefits from all the advantages of the optics, but the blur becomes unpleasant and the detachment of the planes very (too) marked ... much more unpleasant than the Samyang 85 f1.4 first version, for example - in these cases you have to resign yourself to closing the aperture and to f 5.6/6.3 and it resolves ---- x as for the negative aspects, a stabilizer would have been useful, since anyway, we are talking about a focal eq of 112mm on M4/3 and almost 90mm on Canon aps-c ... but weight and size (as well as the price), would inevitably have risen - the only real negative aspect is the marked barrel distortion on the straight lines near the edges (problem also encountered by another user), which in certain contexts, although correctable, is very annoying - in conclusion, a glass that cannot be missing in an aps-c or M4/3 kit and that for some can be enough as the only representative in that focal range, while x others (like myself), is not enough in generalist use, where you need to place it side by side with a glass with characteristics at the antipodes ....
Pros:Sharpness also TA, blur rendering, focusing speed (SU M4/3)
Cons:None
Opinion:Simply one of the best, if not the best lens for micro 4/3 as far as value for money is concerned. I also had the 75 1.8 but I find this lens much more versatile and also sharper. Phenomenal, coupled with a panaleica 25mm 1.4 and a panaleica 15mm 1.7 you have everything you could want on a micro 4/3 body as far as fixed and if you want to stay compact.
Opinion:Fantastic portrait lens for mft. It doesn't make you regret the FF. Crisp already at full opening. At F2.8 it is a blade. Nice soft blurred it. Too bad sigma has stopped producing x mft lenses. I own it together with the 16. Now I will also take the 30. F1.4 does not differ so much from the pro 1.2 lenses. In terms of light, it is blurred. Of course, those are even better and built with better materials. Slightly tropicalized. But for the cost of these 3 sigma lenses you can't get any better. Halfway between the prime 1.7 lenses and the pro 1.2. Promoted
Opinion:My favorite lens with the Sony a6700. Superlative optical quality, always sharp, the images have a particular three-dimensionality. Soft and mellow bokeh. Perfect autofocus. The stabilization on the sensor of the a6700 with this lens works particularly well compared to others, I tried to shoot even at 1/2 second.
Opinion:Used for a few years on the Eos M5, it won me over immediately, undermining the excellent EF-M 32, and becoming the lens always mounted on the camera. Used in every context, from portraits to landscapes, from sports to macro (with extension tubes) it has always performed very well with sharp images (already at CT), well contrasted and practically free of defects (not even a hint of fringing). Behavior more like a macro lens than a medium-telephoto portrait lens. Of course it is not stabilized, and this on Eos M bodies can be a limitation, especially in night photography, but perhaps also thanks to this it remains small and light. Too bad I can't reuse it on R8, it's a lens that I really miss (and it makes me want to pick up the M5 again), although the 100 2.0 behaves well, the performance of the small sigma is of another level.
