Chris tested the new lens:
Sigma 35mm f/1.4 FE lens at BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera.
Dpreview published the full Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG DN Art field review and concluded:
Both E-mount and L-mount versions of the Sigma 35mm F1.4 are very sharp lenses, and in most respects can deliver great image quality even when shooting wide-open. Although there are issues with ghosting and cat’s eye, in many situations you’ll be able to work around these.
And while it’s perhaps a tad front-heavy on smaller bodies, handling is otherwise excellent. We’re fans of the lockable aperture ring, silky-smooth focus ring and rubberized, lockable lens hood in particular.
A bigger concern is the Sigma’s modest autofocus performance, especially when compared to Sony’s very swift-focusing G Master lens if you’re an E-mount shooter. And videographers will also want to bear in mind its significant focus breathing, although that’s also an issue for the Sony lens to a somewhat lesser extent.
For E-mount shooters, we think the Sony 35mm F1.4 GM represents an even better option thanks to its smaller, lighter body, faster AF, lack of ghosting and lesser cat’s eye and fringing; if you can stomach the substantially higher price.
If it’s simply beyond your budget, though, there’s certainly plenty to like in the crisp results delivered by the Sigma, even when shooting wide-open.
