With a lofty price tag and the performance of other Art-series optics setting a high standard, we should expect a lot here – and we certainly get it. The lens is capable of resolving superb detail and beautifully round bokeh, with excellent control over c...
A 40mm lens is a fairly unusual focal length on the still side. Zeiss sells a 40mm lens in its Batis series of AF lenses for Sony cameras, while Tamron offers a 45mm lens for Canon and Nikon DSLRs. The Art lens is priced competitively with its rivals and...

After reviewing their mammoth 40mm f1.4, we got the Sigma 28mm f1.4 Art DG HSM in and were able to relax a bit while understanding that it won't be quite as heavy overall. The company's newest wide angle lens is perhaps being looked at with great curiosit...
