Maybe the sample images aren't the best examples but I really don't see anything great there for $950. I do see a lot CA however, a lot of weight, and a 77mm filter for a 50.
are we looking at the same samples? there is some CA, but its not obnoxious, and pretty much every other lens will show at least that much CA in those same conditions. weight is definitely a factor if you want a discreet, lightweight lens (50/1.8g comes to mind). as for the 77mm, i see it as a plus... no new filters for me since my 24/1.4g and 70-200 also use it.
it wont be for everyone, but if you're in the market for a high-end, all-out fast 50mm lens w/ AF, this sigma lens would have to be heavily considered.
