This is the first f/1.4 lens for Nikon that I wouldn't hesitate using wide open, leaving little to be desired. With the possible exception of the 35/1.4 AFS G Nikkor, compared to other f/1.4 Nikkors optics in the 35/50 class, it is relatively free of coma and spherical aberration that hindered wide...

High overall IQ; great AF focus accuracy; very high build quality for a non-OEM lens

Corner falloff wide open; focuses in the opposite direction of Nikkor lenses and lack of weather sealing gasket on lens mount

I had high hopes for this lens on Sony FE mount, since I've owned the Sigma Art lenses on Nikon cameras and never had a single problem. However, the 35mm Art for Sony FE had major AF issues right out of the box, I had to return it for an exchange, in hope that I had a defect one.

Unfortunatley when I received the lens in the mail, the Autofocus wasn't working. It took gorgeous photos when in the manual setting but to spend $700 on a lens just to have the Autofocus not work is crappy. The company has other reviews of this happening so it could be a manufacturing issue.

This is a very good prime lens for portrait, street shooting, and some landscape. Works fine on my Nikon D700, but need to adjust focusing with +15 fine tuning, not bad at all! Image quality is super good, someone said it is even better than 35G, which is $500 more expensive than this one!

At photokina 2012 Sigma announced a new "Global Vision", which divides their lens portfolio into 3 categories: "Contemporary", "Art" and "Sports". These product lines don't apply to existing Sigma lenses, but any newly developed lens will be assigned to one of them, giving a rough guidance about the...

This 35mm f/1.4 is from Sigma's acclaimed Art range, and has been recognised by many as providing some of the best image quality currently available... Packing in 13 elements in 11 groups – including one FLD and 4 SLD low-dispersion elements, as well as two aspherical elements – keeps the image...

AF did not work at all when the lens was shot on a D800E for the first time. After searching the internet for help I learned that the lens must be sent to Sigma together with the camera. The lens will then be adjusted to the specific camera individually without any charge.

Excellent ultra-sharp images even at max aperture; High resolution and contrast

Needs service before used for the very first time; No aperture ring

Terrific lens. It has a a character which is not found in zoom or standard lenses. It replaced my Nikon 24-70 2.8 and the results are so much better. This lens output is on par with the legendary Pentax FA31 Ltd. Autofocus is consistent and the 3D tracking works great on my Nikons D700 and D810.

Character; colours and bokeh; Consistent Output; Quick Focus

What a lens, haven't really taken it off my d750. Super fast and great for portraits, clean crisp and fast. A little heavy but nothing really to worry about.

Fantastic quality lens, big and heavy, but worth the extra weight. Its super sharp, fast autofocus, wide maximum aperture for low light, and great bokeh, and solidly build. The Sigma 35mm Art is equal, if not better than the Canon L series 35mm, and is now my main wedding lens.
