The 65 would gap better with your 40 and 105. I haven't been using the 55 much, but the Sigma has noticeably less LoCA. It would also feel more like your CV 40 (I have the CV 50/2.) But if you are happy with the 55, maybe just stay pat.

I really like the Tamron 35, and plan to use it for hiking and waterfall shooting. But after handling the 45 and 65, and seeing the rendering....I'm willing to give the 35 a try.

I have the 105mm f/2.8 Art and the 14-24 as well. Seems like I'm a Sigma kick.

I can't say that the Sigma 35/2 tempts me right now.

My kit is the 24GM, Tamron 35/2.8, Voigtlander 40/1.2, Sony FE55 and the Sigma 105/2.8 Art with the A7riv.

I've found the Tamron 35 to be a very practical lens, even if its not nearly as pretty as the Sigma. I'm happy to give up one stop for a lighter weight and a lens that has no optical issues to worry about at any aperture. And I've always got the Voigtlander if I want fast.

So I thought the Sigma i series was just not that interesting to me...

Then Tim had to post those 65/2 images. Now I can't stop thinking about whether it would be better in my kit than the FE55.

Darn you, Tim!
