Pros:
|
Wide on FF. Sharp wide open. Very good IQ. Fast and silent AF. Fast aperture.
|
|
Cons:
|
None really, maybe the filter thing, but that kind of goes with the focal-length ... and a bit pricey

Widest fullframe lens and a lot cheaper than Canon's 14mm.
Canons 14mm seems to have problems with flare, the Sigma has not!
Its a delight to use. I have used it wide open with no real problems.
It certainly beats any of the opposition as a prime lens.

A very good wideangle. I have used it on 1D2 and found it sharp wide open in center - with corner sharpness improving as you stop down past F2.
Color and contrast really good. Flare well controlled.
Very recommendable!

Must be some bad copies out there considering the mixed reviews. My copy is excellent!
