"I could not be happier with this lens. I have been watching for reviews since it was first announced and then became available, but I eventually became impatient and took the plunge anyway. I already owned the Sigma 30/1.4 and was very happy with that, so this seemed like a low risk. The lens itself is quite solidly built and surprisingly heavy. I was stepping up from the Canon 50/1.8, so this was a quantum lea..." Read Full Review »

"I bought this lens even though I saw some pretty nasty reviews about the focusing issues, but was hoping I'd receive a good version. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. The lens I received had lots of focusing issues such as slow focusing, front focusing, missing focus all together, and hunting for focus even in broad daylight. I tested it for almost 10 days with two different Canon 5D bodies and the problem..." Read Full Review »

"Fantastic lens. This is a solid, well-built lens. At times, I think the focus is a little slow. However, I am comparing my experience to Canon L lenses and this lens is way cheaper than the 1.2.

"I think the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 prime lens (310101) is a great lens. It feels perfect in my hands and I am very happy with the quality of the pictures that I take with it. I am still learning a lot about Photography and find that this lens to be a welcomed addition to my camera bag. "

"Campfire and night fishing photography has been one of my passions for forty years. With my Canon F1N camera I used the 50mm f1.2L and the 85mm F1.2 Aspherical. With my Canon 40D I am using the Sigma 30mm F1.4 and 50mm F1.4 HSM lenses. They are a great team, and the auto focus helps my aging eye …" Read Full Review »

Tried the Sigma 50mm 1.4 after reading all reviews and was prepared to return it if it did not surpass the Canon by a significant margin. It met and exceed all …" Read Full Review »
