Sigma has done a great job rolling out excellent Art-series lenses and the Sigma 24mm f/1.4 Art is not an exception. As you can see from the previous pages of this review, the lens shines in a number of ways when compared to lenses like Nikon 24mm f/1.4G or Samyang 24mm f/1.4, with its impressive...

This lens is the latest addition to Sigma's 'Art' line of lenses that promise excellent optical quality and increased creative options thanks to a fast f/1.4 maximum aperture. Being one of Sigma's top of the range lenses, it sports a hypersonic focusing motor, brass lens mount and build quality...

Excellent sharpness; Very low CA; Low distortion; Well built; Fast focusing; Keenly priced

No weather sealing; Falloff at maximum aperture (although typical for the type of lens

The Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG HSM is another very fast, tack-sharp prime lens in Sigma's excellentt Art series. It exhibits low chromatic aberrations and very little barrel distortion while being able to focus as closeas 25cm.

As I begin this review I find myself searching for appropriate adjectives. A few that come to mind are sharp,...

Want to get photographers' attention? Put "f/1.4" in the model name of your lens. Pair that extreme wide aperture with a highly useful 24mm focal length, arguably best-available 24mm image quality and an attractive, highly functional design and you have a lens destined for success.

When I bought this lens - I was really hesitant. For the price and off brand - I feared aberration, noise and slow focus. To my surprise this lens not only focus quickly, its quiet and takes amazing photos. It's the best lens I own (disclosure: I'm an amateur photographer )

I have had a lot of lenses, and with time, I just keep 3 for my D800: One of those is this Sigma 24/1,4. The two others are the new Nikon 300/4 and the traditional Nikon 105 macro, but with this 24 art, sigma is to my point of view at the same level as Nikon, and much less expensive.

Technically there are still a lot of aspects which needs to be covered and it ll take time. But in the interim, the lens works like a dream, absolutely silent while focussing and shots are outrageously sharp.

I ordered this lens with the Sigma USB dock due to worrying about the focus being out of calibration after reading forums talking about this. As it turns out there was no need to worry at all. Focus is spot on on a Nikon D750 SLR body.

Consistent Output; Durable; Quick Focus; Sharp Focus; Strong Construction

Not weather sealed

Fantastic lens, really sharp at all apertures!

Solid; robust build quality; stunning results and hands on the camera beautifully!
