Yes, this lens is worth $1,000. Here's why.
My reaction to every fast lens Sigma release seems to be "I can't believe something this good costs less than $1,000." A new favorite -- the 50mm f1.4 DG HSM -- joins Sigma's Art series of lenses, which already includes two of my all-time sub-$1K favorites, the 35mm f1.4 and 18-35mm f1.8 .
Pros:
- The Sigma 50mm f1.4 lens is a well-designed lens that performs very well for its price
Cons:
- It would be nice if it had image stabilization

Met my expectations and more!!
I'm a wedding photographer, so fast primes are a must for me, especially during indoor ceremonies/receptions, and the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART lens for Sony did not disappoint! Physically, the lens has a clean, simple, and beautiful build.

Sigma AF 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM (Canon) - APS-C Review / Test Report
The new Sigma AF 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM is a refreshing alternative in the long-ignored standard AF lens market. The lens is fairly big and heavy due to unusually big glass elements but thanks to the design efforts it is already capable of delivering sharp images straight from f/1.4 and the resolution...

Fast Fixed Focal Length Lenses; Sigma's 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM And 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM
Although zoom lenses are certainly versatile and convenient, they do have some drawbacks, including relatively small maximum apertures. A typical 28-90mm equivalent zoom may provide an aperture of f/3.5 at short focal lengths but it will be f/5.6-6.3 at longer zoom settings.

Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM Lens Review
It is hard not to be drawn to a fast prime - the short, fat, solid-feeling lens with very low-light capability is very attractive. So, I don't find it surprising that the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM Lens has received a lot of attention in the early days of its availability.

Sigma 50mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM AF: Lens Test
Similar in size, features, and price (though not format) to Sigma's 30mm f/1.4 high-speed "normal" prime for DSLRs with APS-C sensors, this 50mm full-framer ($500, street) also belongs to Sigma's EX family of pro-quality glass.

The contrast between the sharp and the blurred is often overlooked by still photographers as a creative tool, but it's often used very effectively by cinematographers.
