Still one of my favorite lenses.

I have kept the 1 star rating because I believe this product is overly hyped with many bad lenses sold, proving poor quality control from the manufacturer

This is probably one of my favorite lenses

They really are wonderful lenses

The Sigma team has been making remarkable lenses now for many years often filling niches left empty by other third party lens makers and the OEM ones as well

It controls chromatic aberration impressively well even in direct light and other high contrast situations that would destroy many lenses

Sure, you can't expect zooms to be as sharp as primes, but these lenses are so good that I actually carry them along with my zooms because if I am shooting any focal length close to 50 or 35, I will switch out the zooms for the Sigma ARTs

Great lense for the price!

Not doing weddings, so no need to carry 8 crappy lenses.

If more people knew how sharp Sigma lenses are, more people would use them and forget about the whole weather sealing argument

Though it's far from the perfect lens, it has reasonably slapped all the major camera companies across lens market with their affordable, professional grade lenses

Last year I switched to Canon and I needed to replicate my favorite prime lenses, of

Now I almost always use my fast lenses wide open - meaning at 1.2 or 1.4

Sigma's lenses are wonderful to begin with

Hopefully Sigma can improve it's quality control and double check for poor lenses leaving the factory

One of my favorite lenses

I have several fast lenses of various brands but this is the only one that is actually sharp wide open.

The bokeh is 2nd to none and the sharpness blows my 24-70mm L out of the water.
