  • Good First Impressions
Style: Canon EF Mount
By way of background; I am very much a novice when it comes to photography, but want to make it a serious hobby. Since I'm new to this type of high aperture lens, I am still trying to figure out the right f stop and ISO settings for various conditions. So please take my image quality impressions for what it's worth. I have owned my 60D for about two years and have been using the Canon 18-200 lens exclusively. This purchase is a result of an instructor's recommendation during one-day DSLR class and a LOT of internet research. My first impression of this lens is very high quality based on the materials and general look. I am very surprised how small the actual glass is considering this lens is designed to take in a lot of light. The first time i used it, I thought it didn't work because the focus ring didn't move and there was no motor noise. I later realized the focusing is silent and the ring doesn't move when focusing. This is a noticeable difference when comparing it to the Canon 18-200. So far, my close up outdoor shots look amazing (subject is about 1 to 5 feet away). You would think a professional took them! The focused subject is extremely sharp and the background is blurred perfectly - almost has a 3D look to it. All pictures were taken between 1.4 and 3.0 f stops. However, my indoor shots, especially with lower lighting are not so good. They are either out of focus or too dark. Further, when I focus on a distant object inside or outside, the picture doesn't seem very sharp So far, I am attributing these problems to user inexperience - anyone have advice here? At my daughter's birthday party today, I actually switched over to my reliable 18-200 to insure that I'd have good pictures. This also made me realize how much more real estate the 18mm gave me in tighter spaces. After downloading today's pictures to iPhoto it turns out most of the Sigma pictures came out good - looks like I'm starting to figure it out by day 10. I think this part will just take a little more time to perfect these indoor shots. ... show more

  • Adds Great Depth to Photographs
Style: Canon EF Mount
First off, I will say I am an armature photograph and see photography as a hobby rather than a career. For my purposes, this lens is fantastic. To start, the build quality of this lens is amazing. I upgrade to this lens from a 40mm Canon pancake lens with a max aperture of 2.8. Compared to that lens, it's weightier and larger, however I love that about this 30mm. The 40mm felt toyish to me and was constructed of plastic; this Sigma is made mainly from metal. To me, that's not a huge deal because like many of you reading this review, we take good care of our equipment, however the Art lens feels more professional and if you were to take it out on the trail, it could withstand a bump or two. Compared to other Sigma lenses I own, this is by far the best constructed; I also own the 10-20mm and the 18-250mm. The 10-20 feels well built and hefty, but 18-250 is frankly cheap feeling, however you should have no concerns about this 30mm. What I love the most about this lens is the fantastic depth of field it provides. The bokeh of the lens is smooth as silk and allows the subject of the image to be captured brilliantly. It isolates the subject and forces the viewer to examine it, rather than what might be behind it. Also, if there is light behind the subject, the bokeh of it is spherical and not at all angular. The 1.4 max aperture is a great feature and the low light performance is incredible. It makes taking photos with friends and family at gatherings much more enjoyable and less frustrating. Since the lens lets in more light, you can capture your photos with a shorter shutter speed making your images less shaky and crisper when their on screen. However, there are other lenses out there that are cheaper and also shoot at f/1.4, (even the Canon f/1.4 50mm is cheaper than this), so why look at this lens? Compared to other f/1.4 lenses on the market, the 30mm obviously lets you capture more in the frame. On a crop sensor, this is huge. Almost every crop sensor Canon makes has a multiplier of 1.6, so really this 30mm lens is the equivalent of a 48mm on a full frame camera. I love this focal length. Even with aforementioned 40mm pancake lens I had, I found myself clearing a path as I constantly had to back further away from my subjects to capture the entirety of what I wanted. At times I was roughly 12 feet away from a group of four people if I wanted to fit them all in... and that was on a 40mm... I'd be even further away from subjects on a 50mm, which really led me to this lens. What if I wanted to shoot a small subject and wanted to fill the frame? The 30mm would be disadvantageous in this scenario right? Well... not really. The lens has a minimum focusing distance of only roughly a foot. If I did want to get an isolated image of a still, I could shoot it closer with this lens, filling the frame to a distance which is close to that of what a 50mm lens would achieve with a minimum focusing distance of 1.5 feet. There have been complaints about front focusing / back focusing with this lens... I have had no problems with this. Even so, Sigma does make a USB mount for Art lenses where you can adjust them on your computer. I do understand though that when you spend close to 500 dollars on a lens, you should not have to buy another accessory to perfect it; luckily I don't have this issue, but it's nice to know that 5 years from now if I am noticing discrepancies, I could correct for it. The video quality seems fine - I rarely shoot video - however the main issue that I have is that its noisy when auto focusing. The mic does pick it up and it is off putting when viewing videos. For me, not a big issue as I mainly shoot stills. As an armature photographer, I am very happy with this purchase and upgrade from my 40mm pancake. At the end of the day, this lens takes super sharp images, is extremely versatile (more so than a 50mm), adds great DOF to images, performs fantastically in low light, and is built strongly enough to serve you well into the future. There is really not much more a hobbyist could ask for. ... show more

  • The PERFECT lens for high-quality video conferencing from your desk The PERFECT lens for high-quality video conferencing from your desk
Style: Canon EF Mount
Having converted to work from home, but wanting to elevate my game, I installed Canon's EOS Webcam Utility on my Surface Book. I set up my Canon 70D on a tripod, one leg on my desk, the other two on the floor (desk is pulled out about 8 inches from the wall). I tried using my Canon 50mm f/1.8 - a GREAT lens for $125 - but it was too zoomed in on my APS-C sensor (would be great on a full frame), I had to sit too far away from my screen. I then was using a 24-70mm f/2.8 Tamron zoom. It worked, but still didn't soften the background as much as I wanted. I bit the bullet and bought this Art prime lens, and the 30mm focal length is PERFECT for sitting at your desk, with the camera just above your screen (where a webcam would normally go) when using the APS-C sensor size. At f/1.4 the bokeh is super soft, lighting is never an issue, and the autofocus on this is substantially faster than my 24-70 (not to mention, a lot quieter than on the 50mm f/1.8). It never hunts - it's just always in focus. The soft, blended background means a little mess is usually not visible. My 120lb dog sleeps on the bed regularly, and is only noticed when he gets up to stretch. Also, being in sharp focus with a soft background makes the virtual green screen option in Zoom crisper than usual, even without a green screen. A green screen is still way better, but such a hassle. I get more compliments on my visual setup without a virtual background - it makes a difference. Clients I speak with who know nothing about photography rave and ask how to get their camera to look so good. Took the lens out this weekend to shoot some up-close action shots of the kids at a baseball game - the pictures are fantastic. Bright, sharp, focused. The lens LOOKS good on the camera, sleek and solid. It may be my new favorite lens. ... show more

  • Mainly rating it for Video
Style: Canon EF Mount
I sold my first Sigma 30mm 1.4 and regretted it because it was perfect for video and for photography as well. Now an upgraded version came out and after reading other peoples review I decided to take a chance on it. This has pretty much the same review as the original, some people saying it focuses good and others saying it doesn't. I guess that was the main issue. Upon opening the box, this new Art version looks much better than the first and quality is much much better as well. It is a little heavier, however it is a beauty. The focus ring is much smoother than the first. Overall much much better quality. Again, I mainly focus manually because I take mostly videos, but there are days when I do like to take photos. In bright light I have no problem auto-focusing, when it gets darker it's a hit and miss, which isn't good because this fast lens is supposed to excel in low-light. I haven't tried micro-adjusting the lens, will try that later, but as of now it's a hit and miss in low light. For videos this is perfect, focus ring is smooth and bokeh is nice. No problem for videos. Things it comes with are lens pouch, front and back lens cap and lens hood. (This is what I like about Sigma) Back lens cap is wider than the canon, and will not tip over easily. Front lens cap, has the pinch style which is perfect if you have the lens hood on. Lens hood is round, like the canon 50mm 1.4. I prefer the old Sigma 30mm Lens Hood, it was the petal looking one, much better looking. Even if mines has auto-focusing issue in low-light I have no problem because I will try micro-adjusting it. If that doesn't work there is always the Sigma warranty and they can fix it, so no worries there. (Just have to wait) For videos however, I really like the smooth focus and bokeh. 4 out of 5 because it is an awesome quality built lens. Much better than anything in its price range. Picture quality is great and videos are great as well. Main issue is auto-focusing, which I hope can be fix by micro-adjusting it. The pouch and lens hood are a plus. ... show more

  • Incredible lens at any price
Style: Canon EF Mount
I've just started enjoying this lens after using my Sigma super zoom (18-250mm f/3.5-6.3) and it's amazing how much crisper and brighter my photos are. I can avoid a flash now. Of course a prime 1.4 is going to be a huge leap, but wow - it opens up a world of photographic options for. And if I need to zoom, I just move my butt closer to my subject. This is great at night and the 30mm semi-wide angle is great for family photos. My nifty 50 is zoomed too much, but this little guy can get a whole table of faces into frame without moving out into the hall. It's built like a tank, very high quality. Comes with a lens hood and carrying case. Very classy stuff and every bit the equal of a L lens for half the price. In fact, there is no L lens that can stop to 1.4 as a prime in this focal length. For a crop sensor camera, you'll love it. Also, I find it to be a great video lens. It equates to a 46mm, so videos look very cinematic. And wide open in video gives you the bokeh look. The focusing is much quieter than my Sigma zoom, so the on camera mic isn't as challenged. Overall, superb lens. Don't listen to the backfocus complaints. That is either user error or camera body-based complaining in most cases. Focus and re-compose and you won't get any back focus issues most of the time. This focuses quickly and accurately. And your DSLR has lots of ways to focus properly including moving your red focus point around, or the new Canons with touch screen focusing. Sigma has really impressed me. ... show more

  • Amazing APS-C Lens Amazing APS-C Lens
Style: Canon EF Mount
I have the Sigma 30mm F1.4 Art paired with my Canon T6i, and I absolutely love it. For a 50mm equivalent lens it is incredible. Some edges are a little soft at 1.4, but for the price you honestly can't complain. This lens is attached to my camera 98% of the time. Use it for everything. Great walking around lens. The only reason you would need another lens is for super wide, or a zoom lens. I have a Sigma dock for calibration, didn't even need it because it was perfect with it's focusing. Pictures speak volumes, make sure you look at those attached! *Update 8/13/2018: Have this now on a Canon 80D and works just as well, as expected. After performing some micro adjustments in camera the lens is tack sharp. My lens was back focus pretty bad so I had to tell it to front focus by about 12 clicks. Incredible lens! This paired with Canon's 24mm f/2.8 are the only lenses I use about 99%, with the other 1% when I use a 50mm f/1.4 for a portrait or product shot. ... show more

This lens captures beautiful photos, sharp even at f1.4. Bokeh is extremely beautiful. Autofocus with this lens is hit or miss (do not try to use at important event, you will miss some shots). Were it not for the autofocus issue, I would give this a solid 4. Why not a 5? Because while using for video, its pretty noisy (internal microphone pics up). Very compact and light. ... show more
