Pros: Bokeh, great sharpness, solidity, speed and AF accuracy, cost

Cons: Nothing. I could say weight and bulk, but they are laughable arguments when compared to performance

Opinion: I have one in kit for several years (accompanied by a fantastic Sigma Protector Ceramic) and I think I can say it is an absolute reference for the focal one. Very sharp already at f 1.4, from f 2.8 to 5.6 it becomes even radiographing. The bokeh is excellent, never nervous, one of the creamiest ever seen. The diaphragm always precise is naturally electromagnetic, the very fast AF is ultrasonic, the price is laughable. The palette of colors returned travels on the most absolute neutral, you can forget the chromatic oddities of the canikon portrait half-canvases. What can I say, speaking of autofocus lenses I do not think there is a better 85 but be careful, as always with regard to the Art I strongly advise against the purchase to those who do not want - or are not able - to perfectly calibrate the AF with the dock. Because the mission of this 85 (as well as that of the little brother 135) is to be used always and in any case at TA....

Pros: construction, brightness, solidity, weight is not a problem,

Cons: at the moment nothing, soft edges (first impression but I have to double check)

Opinion: Nikon D780: Arrived this morning, immediately put on the dock-usb, calibrated with the double method "LENSCAL tablet" and DOT-TUNE method. It had front focus respectively +15 +14, +12, however difference cost on the different focusing distances. I reserve the right to update the first impressions after period of use. The only doubt, tried with maximum opening 1.4, as expected it was a bit soft on the edges. Closed at f4, I thought I would find an improvement, but it was equally soft. I reserve the right to test it outdoors in daylight.

Pros: Sharpness, speed, brightness, construction, price

Cons: Weight, dimensions, hood

Opinion: An optics that in terms of sharpness and speed is at stellar levels but that on the other hand has weight and dimensions to be taken into account if you use it for several hours (weddings, long sessions, etc.). Mounted on the R it becomes even longer. Huge hood but solid and in line with the optics. Also great for sports. It is found used at a low price so a shame not to have it.

Pros: spectacular already at f1.4, quality and general yield, sharpness, excellent construction

Cons: lid and paraluce outrageous goal

Opinion: I've been using it on Sony A7RIII in the studio for about 6 months. I think it's the ultimate portrait lens, disarming sharpness already at full aperture, zero flare, zero chromatic trees, spectacular MAF dial. Af on Sony very good thanks also to firmware updates from Sigma! One of those lenses that I would buy with my eyes closed, if I can give advice to Sigma; The next version I would like to conder diaframmi on the lens as the 35mm f1.2 ART

Pros: Spectacular sharpness already at 1.4 - fuzzy fairy tale - autofocus fast and precise - flawless construction.

Cons: But the quality pays off.

Opinion: I took it recently, I made a photo exit and I can only praise this little big gem. I assume that I use it on nikon D810 and already at the maximum opening solves without hesitation its 36 MPs, closing a little becomes a sharp blade. There are maybe specimens with focus problems, especially on Canon that with my ex 6D was not accurate, I for safety, for what it costs, I took the USB Dock station and in addition to updating the firmware I made a small calibration , but he's a sniper in any photo situation he doesn't take a shot. Weight and clutter can be the only downside, for me it is not a problem indeed it is a pleasure to hold this sturdy beast in my hand. I recommend it to portrait lovers, impeccable results.
