Here's the CV 28/2 APO compared to the Sigma 28-45/1.8 @ f/2. No corrections for the CV (no profile) and I left distortion correction turned on for the Sigma but turned off vignetting correction. Balanced exposure and color a bit.
The Sigma can be a bit nervous with detail at certain distances in the background, you can see that a bit in parts of the shot focused on the shed. You have to zoom past 100% to see it, so it's not too noticeable in this shot. Maybe a bit less blur from the CV towards the edges due to the optical vignetting.
In my experience IMHO, Sigma could have put the APO moniker on the 28-45.
Thanks Tim, I’ve been considering the Voigt 28/2 APO but the rendering on that Sigma is very nice.
The Sigma is my favorite AF variable focal length prime.
