The test results of the Sigma A 105 mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro are so explicit that we don't have to write a long summary. When a lens with a very long list of pros is able to break resolution records and it has just one, not especially important flaw, there is nothing to do but to recommend that...

too slow autofocus.

The Sigma 105mm f2.8 DG DN Macro Art is the first macro lens for Sigma’s DN-series of lenses designed specifically for mirrorless cameras with Sony E-mount and Leica L-mount. The excellent performance makes it a perfect match for high resolution full-frame mirrorless cameras with E-mount or L-mount.

The only disappointment about the Sigma 105mm F2.8 DG DN Macro Art is that it’s not available in more mounts. Nikon Z-series and Canon R-series photographers can’t get the benefit of its excellent credentials.

Excellent sharpness across the frame, Attractive bokeh, Weather sealing

Only available in the L and Sony E mounts, Unstabilised

If you are looking for an excuse to buy this lens, I’ll give you three. It’s sharp, it delivers awesome performance as a macro lens, and it’s an excellent dedicated portrait lens. The build quality is very good and tactile feedback is positive and convincing.

Design too familiar, Some average features

Apple's latest non-Pro iPhone is superb - it's just that it's strikingly similar to last year's effort.

Still an incredible smartphone, Brilliant battery life gets a bit better, Excellent camera system gets a bit better

Last year’s Pro hardware, Wireless charging slow by modern standards, No USB-C; it’s now well overdue

More like an iPhone 13S. The generational upgrades for the iPhone 14 are limited to a few subtle changes. At the same time, however, the base price climbs to 800 USD, while the only true innovation happens inside the iPhone 14 Pro series.
