Top Amazon Reviews
This lens, apart from the price, is exactly what I wanted! I could not be happier. -This lens was paired with my Canon Rebel XTi/400D. As such, this review is based on my experience with the lens on the rebel. If you would like to see some of its capabilities you may visit my Flickr page: [...] I'll start off with the pro/con itemization first: Pros: - Very, very sharp - even at f/1.4! Much more so than the Canon f/1.4. It's comparable to Canon's f/1.2 "L" series, and may be arguably sharper. It's definitely sharper at anything above f/1.8. - Color rendition is spot-on. It doesn't lie to you. If it's a somewhat gloomy picture, ie, lots of gray, that's how it's going to come out. If you shoot in RAW (which you do if you are looking at this lens) you can always boost the color if you don't like it. Personally, I'd rather have accurate color than exaggerated color. - It's HEAVY! Yes! That is a PRO in my book. Honestly, I don't understand why people list the weight as being a con! For me, it was a relief to feel how heavy and robust it actually was. Words cannot explain the feeling you get, if you're like me, when you first take it out of the box. Personally, I felt like I was holding a gold brick. - The "HSM" works very well. AF is fast, accurate, and always spot on. The only time I've ever seen it "seeking" is either in very very low light or where I cannot keep the AF point on the subject (shaky hands), ie, one blade of grass, a stick, small leaf, etc.. That's user error. Maybe I got lucky, or maybe people just like to write bad reviews, I 'dunno! No focus issues here. - Bokeh. This lens completely nukes anything that's more than a few inches out of the DoF at f/1.4. It's creamy, as others have said, and it's not distracting like some of Canon's stuff. Canon's 50mm f/1.8 creates harsh, blown out pentagons. Not pleasant. - Accessories. If you're trying to decide between this Sigma and the equivalent Canon f/1.4, and the price is the deciding factor, forget it. You get a very nice, belt-looped case with ample padding and a place holder. You also get a "flower petal" style lens hood that would easily run you 50 bucks if you bought it from Canon. The accessories you get, along with nicer (in my opinion) pictures, cancel out the price difference. Cons: - Filters. Yes, yes, the filters are huge and pricey. It's not really a con so much as something you should "know about". A good M/C CPL is going to run you between 80 and 100 bucks. Can't stomach that? Buy a different lens. Simple as that. - A tad slow? I've been testing it against the 18-55mm EF-S lens, the 'kit lens', and as far as I can tell, the kit lens is a little faster at f/5.6 and 50mm. Maybe it's just because the kit lens is so cheaply made it lets in more light through spaces and whatnot. - (maybe) AF speed changes? If I put the lens cap on, the lens will sometimes move at a decent speed through the range and then go 2x faster back to infinity. I really don't know if this is normal or not, it may or may not be. I'll list this as a "maybe" con. Either way, it's still very, very fast. -[...]Yes, it cost me more than the entire camera package. It is very expensive, it's also very much worth it. If you can't shell out the big money for this lens, get yourself a Canon f/1.8. It's worth a lot more than 80 bucks, but it's not as great as this Sigma. In conclusion, I'd like to point out that if you do purchase this lens, and you do get a bad copy, you can/SHOULD send it to Sigma and have them recalibrate it. If you send it back to Amazon for another one, you're likely to have the same problem and it's also likely to take the same amount of time. If the name alone is steering you away, don't let it! It's a great lens, honestly, truly.

Despite all I've heard about the focusing issues with this Sigma 50mm f1.4 lens, my copy works perfectly. I don't doubt that issues exist. I use a camera all the time and get paid for it, been using them for 40 years. When I bought my Canon EOS 7D body, I thought it was a horrid decision, and I was ready to dump the piece of c&*p. Turns out part the problem was basically the factory settings. It has 19 focusing points, and I could not get correct focus with any of my 14 lenses, including "L" lenses. Without breaking some egos here, remembering my physics education that you cannot possibly focus on 19 points at the same time, I selected the center as the only point, and turned off focus hunting with one-shot AF. I haven't had a focus issue since. Yes as long as there is not much angle change when reframing the shot, it holds focus well. The good part is, if I had believed all the negativity, I would not own this superior lens. I'm a "Prime" lens lover, my style doesn't call for zooming. Can't get the amount of light and bokeh with zoom's, and love the drama in my shots. It isolates the subject, and gives a 3D feel. I hate busy backgrounds, as they detract from the shot. I do own the Canon 50mm f1.4 lens, and will be selling shortly (there is a noticeably visible difference from the Sigma). The Sigma is superior in bokeh and saturation. I've taken some dreamy shots wide open that the equivalent Canon cannot match. Although this lens is very, very sharp, it is not a match for the Canon "L" series 100mm Macro, 135mm or 200mm Series "L" glass. The latter lenses are even creamier on the bokeh wide open and dead sharp wide open. To make a long story short, in my opinion is the best 50mm option for Canon Cameras. I will not be buying the Canon f1.2 version, as there is no advantage to me paying at least one grand more for gaining 1/3 of a stop of light. I found what I was looking for, and thought it was a worthwhile purchase. The lens hood is sturdy, love that being included and not a separate purchase, and the lens cap is the Sigma center pinch design, you don't have to remove the hood to take off the cap. This is my second Sigma purchase, and I study carefully before buying. This is one big, impressively built lens, not a wimpy one.
