I would buy again! Even at full price!

This lens is incredible for its price! I bought this lens through Adorama's Open Box department, so I got an extra discount from its full price. I am pairing it with my FX30 and my a6300; I wanted to use it as a photography and video lens. So far I've only tested this lens with my a6300 during a studio photoshoot, and the quality is outstanding-sharp portraits even at 1.4 (I've attached a few processed samples) I am currently testing continuous lighting portraits with my FX30, and I am equally impressed at how good the raw images look.

This lens is superb. Image quality wide open is tack sharp. The lens is well made, but light and super compact. When you factor in the price, it is a must have - incredible bargain. Now resides on my CL 90% of the time - perfect for portraits.

Great little lens

The YouTube reviews on this lens are right. This is the best of the Sigma prime lens trio for the Sony APS-C cameras. I have the 16 and 30 mm. I like them both, but this focal length I find to be more useful for most of my pictures. Used this for some nighttime Holiday parade photos and got some great shots. This will be my go to lens for the kids band concerts and dance recitals. Focal length is good and the low light performance is great. The Sigma lenses have nice warm color to them and are very sharp. Focus speed is good but I do find it not as quick as Sony lenses. Very happy with my purchase and got a great price on Cyber Monday. I would recommend this lens and Adorama.

BEST PORTRAIT LENS FOR APSC Sony E Mount

This is possibly the best lens to get for your Sony E Mount if you are a portrait photographer. This is equivalent to (almost) 85mm full frame, and this lens produces great bokeh quality, great in low light because of the F1.4, and it is very compact because of its size. I really enjoy using this lens and I honestly think this can compete with some G-Master lenses.

Great little lens for my Canon M50 MkII

Bought this for my Canon M50 MkII, and I couldn't be happier. Small and light for its focal length and speed, super sharp, fast reliable focussing. It's also inexpensive compared to other similar lenses. Oh, and, unlike Canon lenses, Sigma lenses include a lens hood!

Better than expected

I considered the new Fuji 56mm f/1.2 WR lens but I'm happy I decided to try the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 first. It's $600 less with the sale price and the build quality and optical quality are great. The lens feels good in the hand, the images are sharp and beautiful. I'll add 3 photos made with the Sigma 56mm and my Fuji X-H2 40MP camera.

Excellent Image quality...focus can be off sometimes but might be the cameras fault

The images this lens produces are nothing short of spectacular. At f/1.4 the images are sharp and gorgeous. I have noticed a few mis focused (slightly) images of subjects at medium distances in low contrast light BUT for normal portrait style shots, the lens never missed a beat. I also suspect my Olympus em5 mark iii might play into the focus issues a tiny bit so not sure if it is fully the lenses fault. Overall, I am happy with the lens.

Best Sony APS-C portrait lens ever!

This lens is on the same level (for an APS-C lens) as an expensive 85mm prime lens on a full frame camera. Unless you're a high-earning professional photographer, you probably will not need or ever want a better portrait lens than this one.

Awesome Sigma Sony E mount lens

First of all, the picture's taken with this lens using A6000 is perfect. The details in the pictures can't be compared with any other lens in $500 budger. Auto focus and low light is also beyond expectation. At last, Adorama did a great job, sent fast and it was well packaged.

Great lens for an incredible price!

I was looking into Fuji primes, when Sigma started offering their lenses for the Fuji X system. Great lens for an incredible price! I am not someone to peek into pixels, but the "feel" of a 1.4 lens is just great. No issues with focus etc. If you don't really need aperture ring, it's safe to get this one.

Better performing than the Fuji 56mm F1.2

Hard to beat for the money, and sadly puts the old Fuji 56mm F1.2 to shame, at least in terms of performance/image quality. Overall, it focuses much more reliably than my Fuji 56mm, especially in low light, and it's also silent while doing it (vs. the loud/grindy sound of the Fuji). That translates to better tracking in CAF modes, and more shots in focus for things like couples walking down the aisle at weddings, etc. (Racking focus isn't that much quicker compared to the Fuji 56mm, but given that it's not confident/accurate, the speed isn't useful). Image quality is also better when shooting wide open compared to the Fuji, at least in my experience. My copy of the Fuji 56mm is pretty soft at F1.2 (especially at closer distances), and doesn't really sharpen up considerably until around F2. Conversely, the Sigma is sharp right from F1.4, and the difference in bokeh/background blur between F1.2 vs. F1.4 is minimal (as is the 1/3rd stop of light).

Amazing lens, cool kit, poor packaging

Amazing lens and neat little kit items. The kit is essentially free, so the items aren?t high quality to match the lens, but everything works. Will probably never use the software, but I keep the polarizing filter on this lens almost all the time. Adorama?s packaging was disappointinf, though. This whole kit shipped in a box about twice as large as needed and with no packing paper or any protection to keep the items from moving around. In fact, when I picked the box up from my porch everything slid and crashed to the bottom, which scared me. Luckily, nothing broke.

Must have for any EF-M owner

This lens is a beast. Attached my M6 Mkiii it's able to quickly lock focus on eyes. Sharp in the focal range, nice creamy shallow depth of field in the background at f/1.4. After getting an adapter, I've slowly been transitioning to EF mount lenses, but this EF-M is staying in my bag. It is an incredible portrait lens and an amazing value for what you get.

Great for portraits - I should have bought it lens sooner!

By Robert R.

I love this lens! I considered purchasing the Olympus 75mm 1.8 for quite a while. I camp with High Adventure Treks for Dads and Daughters and the campout is on unless the roads are unsafe. This Sigma lens is "dust- and splash-proof design with rubber sealing". I did some research before I ordered and it is rated as having great sharpness for 4/3. In practice it didn't disappoint. I like the focal length. It easily allows me to be far enough from the subject to avoid crowding. It isn'...

Compact, lightweight and remarkable image quality-a mid-tele lens for APS-C mirrorless

Offering an opportunity to experience the fun of shooting wide open, with F1.4 brightness

The first of the series is the standard lens 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary, and the second is the wide-angle lens 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary. The third addition is this smallest mid-tele lens in its class, 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary. While retaining the compact, lightweight, and outstanding image quality concepts of the Contemporary line, thanks to SIGMA's leading-edge technology, this lens provides the amount of bokeh and admirable brightness expected from F1.4 lenses even in the mid-tele range. This addition completes the large aperture series comprised of portable wide-angle, standard, and telephoto lenses.

A member of the high-performance Contemporary line, featuring SIGMA's latest technologies

Smooth AF ideal for video shooting
The combination of optical design for video AF and use of the stepping motor enables smooth and quiet autofocus. This lens is also compatible with the Nikon Z-mount Fast Hybrid AF, achieving precise AF tracking. By using the face recognition or eye AF functions of cameras, focus will continuously be on the face or the eye even if the subject moves during the shoot.

High-precision, rugged brass bayonet mount
The brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction. Its treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to the exceptional durability of the lens.

Mount with Dust and Splash Resistant Structure
The mount features a special sealing to make the lens an excellent choice in a wide variety of conditions.

Impressively compact construction with image quality rivaling SIGMA's Art line.
To achieve such a compact construction, lens design is considered based on the capabilities of the camera body function to correct peripheral light amount and distortion. Moreover, axial color aberration, which is difficult to eliminate by image processing, is efficiently corrected by incorporating an SLD glass element. A compactness and lightweight construction combined with superb image quality is achieved.

Designed to minimize flare and ghosting
From an early stage in the lens design process, flare and ghosting have been measured to establish an optical design resistant to strong incident light sources such as backlighting. SIGMA's Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting to help photographers produce sharp and high contrast images even in backlit conditions. The included lens hood can be attached to block out extraneous light, which can have a negative effect on rendering performance.

The only three F1.4 AF lens system for APS-C Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras
The lens benefits from an open aperture of F1.4 to achieve sufficient amount of bokeh and admirable brightness even with APS-C size cameras which tend to have smaller bokeh effects compared to 35mm full size systems. Its compact and lightweight body is perfect for daily use, capable of capturing various scenes ranging from portraits to snapshots, as well as night view.

Rounded diaphragm
The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image.
