Review on Premium Sigma 50-100mm F1.8 Art DC HSM Lens for Canon - Review & Comparison by Amit Amit ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

Many will consider such a decision controversial, but he did it meaningfully and has never regretted it. Once upon a time I heard about the appearance of sigma 18-35 / 1,8. I bought (together with 60D), tried it and the next day I sold 24-70 and the first nickel. Since then, I have never regretted it. The second camera at weddings worked 5dm2 and 70-200 / 2.8. I waited a long time for a similar zoom from sigma to come out. Waited. I bought 50-100 / 1.8 and took another 60D camera. Already filmed a wedding and do not regret buying. Without hesitation put up for sale brand2 and 70-200 / 2.8. And yet, I have repeatedly met questions on the forums about how cropped SIGMA ART lenses behave on a full frame - there will be a vignette on all focal lengths. Yes, it can be corrected in the editors, but the fact remains.

Pros
  • Everything is gorgeous. The construct is great. Everything spins smoothly, perfectly, without backlash. Cut open. Fairly fast focusing. Didn't require adjustment.
Cons
  • These are not shortcomings, this is a matter of habit. Still getting used to it after 70-200 / 2.8. The zoom is a little tight. Backlight, like the vast majority of lenses from other manufacturers - does not like.
