The Sigma 20mm f/1.4 Art lens will not disappoint. However, keep in mind that this lens does perform best when stopped down. That aside, I made countless exposures wide open without first scrutinizing even one frame on my computer—and I was largely satisf...

I admit that the tests of fixed focal length Sigma Art series lenses are becoming a bit boring. Every time you get a mechanically solid instrument with outstanding optical properties which, additionally, is sold for a sensible amount of money. When it com...
Sigma has done it again! At first, the sheer heft and size is a little shocking, especially considering it's a prime lens. However, this shouldn't come as a surprise given Sigma's past Global Vision lenses. Theses lenses haven't focused on being the small...
