Review on πŸ“· High-Quality Sigma 35mm F1.4 Art DG HSM Lens for Canon, Black, Compact Size (340101) by Gabriela Domagalska ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I do not cease to rejoice at the purchase, a very good deal!

As I have previously mentioned, there is a significant issue with backlighting. There is one more minor flaw in this glass: when you photograph, for instance, a person in full growth on a fully open one, forget about sharpness; however, if you close the aperture to 2-2.8, the picture will be completely sharp; on in my opinion, this cannot even be attributed to the minuses, the aperture ratio remains very good. The vignetting is not only noticeable, but also really pleasant; it does not detract from the overall image in any way, but rather lends it an artistic air. It turned out to be really lovely, with superb sharpness and quick focus when used in club shooting (only with the help of yn-622c transmitters with focus illumination, of course). The resulting video is just breathtaking, and operating it in manual mode with such gentle focusing is like something out of a fairy tale. In general, the glass is really nice, and I don't even regret buying it; in fact, it has become the primary workhorse of the camera, and it is rarely taken off of it (with a few notable exceptions).

Pros
  • A lot has been discussed down here already! Aperture, sharpness even when the aperture is wide open, picture quality and depth, and strong contrasts! Focus that is both swift and hushed!
Cons
  • At 1.4, it does not hold backlight in any way, and although it will spin to its maximum extent, it will not focus. Maybe I just didn't look hard enough!
