Re: Sigma 35mm f/1.2 Art E Mount Lens Image Thread
Just got mine today. Preliminary testing shows it to be sharp and well centered tho I always like to do more than one set of tests. Infinity testing shows it sharper than the CV 40/1.2 especially away from center until well stopped down (at least F4 or more likely F5.6 tho I only did one quick test). It also seems really sharp with good rendering at portrait distances. However, I am concerned about autofocus. Up close using eye AF wide open on AF-C, I found all but one razor sharp on the eye (4 out of 5 I think). However, stopped down to F2, I took two pics and both were a bit soft. Worse, at infinity using either autofocus C or S, I found all to be a bit off tho it was into the sun and thus a tough test. More testing is clearly in order, but not sure that I am thrilled with the Autofocus performance thus far. Naturally, a firmware fix could solve the problem, but I have 30 days to return the lens and am curious if anyone else has noticed these types of issues. Thx for any input.
