Reviewer score 77% (normalized by Neofiliac)The Sigma 40mm F1.4 DG HSM Art delivers exceptional image quality. It's a better lens than the company's lauded 35mm F 1.4 Art, especially when partnered with a demanding, high-resolution image sensor. But it's a lot more and, perhaps more importantly, is a good deal larger and heavier.
Pros
- Sharp edge-to-edge resolution
- Cinema-first design
- Dust and splash protection
Cons
- Bulkier than competitors
- Vignette effect
