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

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best thing for the money, glad I did it.

After having used the lens for the past two years, I would like to give my feedback about it. I do a lot of photography, and my go-to focal ratio is 35. The lens, on its own, is shockingly sharp even when stopped down to 1.4, and it has a really nice overall aesthetic. Before that, there were sigma lenses, which were completely outclassed by the competition. Almost half a year into my experience, I was completely content; but, beyond that point, the typical Sigma challenges started cropping up one after the other. After a half year of use, I saw that its appearance had begun to deteriorate, which is not a major issue but occurs considerably more quickly than with canon (by the way, I have all canon fixes including 35 1.4) After two years, the lens demonstrates that he followed a challenging course in life, but this cannot be stated about any of my other lenses. When he suddenly fell off the carcass one day, it's a good thing that he didn't fall on his hand and hurt himself. Somewhere in the past year, he began to sway suspiciously on the carcass. While the picture was good and I%No:%, when he suddenly fell off, it's good that he didn't get hurt. The platform to which it is joined to the carcass was screwed back on during the servicing, and everything appears to be in working order as a result. Recently, I treated myself to a Mark 4 and discovered that the lens is not particularly compatible with it. When used at close range, the lens distorts the image, while when used at medium range, it shamelessly smears 9 out of 10 shots. Perhaps they can fix this issue in the service, but since they don't offer it, I was unable to get it fixed. In point of fact, as a direct consequence of this, I purchased 35 from Kenon. When I took the sigma, it was about two times cheaper than the analog that Kenenon offered; hence, purchasing it was a wise financial decision. Yet after two years, there has been a buildup of complaints, despite the fact that I continue to believe that this lens is excellent for amateur use and worthy of a 4 for professional work. By the way, there are no issues with the color, bokeh, sharpness, screwing, or speed of the camera, nor is there any difficulty working in low light.

Pros
  • This lens from Sigma is exceptional in every way.
Cons
  • The aesthetic deteriorates over time; the design is not the most dependable; there are issues with the 5DM4
