#Sigma 35mm 1.2 series#

Newly developed high-performance lens series for full-frame mirrorless cameras.The Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN was tested with the Panasonic S1R. On the untextured areas, the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN is slippery to hold.There should be none with a lens like this though. A few fringing issues, but they’re rare.Sometimes I wonder if Sigma is in competition to prove that they can make the biggest prime lenses.It’s a massive lens that goes against the whole point of Mirrorless.It’s cumbersome and even heavier on Panasonic’s L mount options.

On the L mount system, the autofocus is lousy and doesn’t allow full advantage of the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN.

While Face detection on Panasonic isn’t that great, AF tracking isn’t terrible with the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN.

When you want to go from Sigma to Panasonic, you’ll have to switch flash systems again.

If you want to use Leica’s cameras, then you need to buy one or two of them? For a professional or a content creator, you then need to invest in a new flash system unless you’re going all manual. I consider it a slap in the face to the customer. How does that make sense for the customer? I find it asinine. What that means is, if you own a Panasonic S1R and you choose to get a Leica SL camera, there’s a chance that you may need to work with two flash systems. The L Mount alliance is all about the protocols involving using the mount and the autofocus. But it’s still not an entirely great idea. Leica basically took what Olympus has with the 4/3rds coalition and made it better.

The L mount alliance is a fantastic idea. But in this case, I don’t think that it’s Sigma’s fault.īefore I go into this review, I have to rant a little bit. For the duration of my review, I had a lot of second thoughts. With a price tag that will accordingly leave a lasting hole in your wallet, I pondered whether the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN is worth purchasing. It can be used with a click or de-click, has an f1.2 aperture while providing autofocus, adds weather sealing, and is meant to last. The Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN is a lens that really chooses to do things differently. The tradeoff here is a lens that delivers a look unlike anything else on the market. However, I have to admit that it seems like only Olympus, Fujifilm, and Sony have been sticking to that philosophy. The last time I knew, mirrorless camera lenses were supposed to be small. I’m not sure from where Sigma got the memo that making the Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN into a mammoth was a great idea.

The Sigma 35mm f1.2 Art DG DN is a fantastic lens, but very heavy.
