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
Sigma continue to aggressively fill out their Art, Contemporary and Sports lens ranges, and the new 28mm F1.4 DG HSM is the latest optic to join the well-renowned Art family, slotting in between the existing 24mm and 35mm models.
Image Quality aside (which is super sharp from my experience with the EF/MC-11 combo), the focus seems much better on FE mount than my adapted 24. I Have 2 A9's so set them to identical settings and did a quick non-scientific test in a VERY dark room (think I was at 60 shutter wide open at 3200...
A f/1.4 lens is meant to be used wide open at least sometimes (otherwise an f/2.8 lens is sure to be cheaper, lighter, and just as good). This one does meet expectations. Images shot wide open are pretty sharp already, and above all very "clean".
Sharpness; low aberrations; close focus; contrast; good working against the light
MF not that nice; AF precise but slow; size and weight of course
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
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.
I bought this lens 2 months ago and have 3 other wide angle lenses that rate in the top of all reviews . The sigma 24mm f1.4 art is the best lens ive ever owned its so so sharp I have not even used the docking station that I own because its sharper than anything simply amazing hands down it deserves...
While it's a shame that picture and sound quality haven't been upgraded, the iPhone 13 was great in these regards and the iPhone 14 is, too Excellent display Admirable headphone performance Solid build quality No upgrades to picture or sound Familiar design Notch is still present
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
