p.1 #5 · p.1 #5 · Help me decide ! Nikon AF-S 58 1.4 or rather Sigma 50 Art ? | |
I had the Sigma 50 1.4 EX before, I just can't remember which Nikon body, most likely the D800, but the turn off for me at least, of 3rd party lenses, is the different color cast, the Nikon lenses would be much warmer and the sigma would be much cooler, but if you post process it doesn't really matter.
The Sigma 50 1.4 would give you a better bargain and nicer bokeh over the regular Nikon 50 1.4G lens, sharper too! (Not sure about better bokeh over the 58 1.4G)
The Nikon 58 1.4G, is a special lens, for its bokeh characteristic and 3D look it renders, yes its a tad soft wide open, slight haze at 100% but that is the 'character' of the lens, I have used this on some photo shoots and the pictures below are all wide open at 1.4 with of course post processing, little sharpening goes a long way
I would personally go with the 58 1.4G for night shooting wide open and the color cast it creates, hope this makes sense.
