After a lot of reading reviews and other information, I decide that the next lens I wanted to purchase would be an 85mm prime lens. I had previously decided that I would only invest in the highest quality lenses, and the choice was down to two, the Sony 85mm GM, or the Sigma 85mm DG DN Art lens. After doing my homework, I opted for the Sigma lens, and I am very pleased with it so far. I have used it for taking portraits, and also pictures of a hummingbird that is nesting in one of our trees. I am looking forward to learning all of the different way this lens can be used to take amazing photos.

LOVE! I was debating between this and the GM for my Sony a7iv and am so glad I went with this option. It gives me the results I want and I haven't had an issue with sharpness. It's light and was a great addition to my 24-70.

I love this lens. It has brought my Sony A7iii alive. Took it out to a country cabin for the weekend with my kids and grandkids and got some amazing pictures. Now I think I am going to have to invest in a Sigma 35 mm dg DN art lens. absolutely love it.

Absolutely amazing lens. Beutiful image quality, good size and fast autofocus. The reviews are true...this lens is a gem. I used to shoot Nikon and had an 85mm 1.8G which was a great lens but tis lens is on another level entirely. Wide open the sharpness is fantastic and it isn't much larger than my Nikon 1.8G lens. I honestly can't think of one single down side to this lens.

Sigma 85mm f1.4 DG DN Art Lens hype is REAL ???? This is your sign! everything you read about this lens is true! It is compact for 1.4 aperture, so light weight, the picture quality is excellent, focus is on point & the bokeh is over and beyond, def the best bang for your buck ?

So much smaller than my Sony G-Master and very sharp. Feels very nice on my Sony A7IV.

Paired with my A7IV, it is outstanding. I'm an amateur, and it's produced beautiful portrait shots and sharp video as well. And in terms of size, it feels perfectly balanced. No extra bulk, just tack sharp shots even wide open.

Beautiful image quality, smaller and lighter than expected - using on Leica SL2-s. One star deduction for inconsistent focus at times (increased hunting) even though the accuracy is good, usually happens in lower light and wider aperture but still noticeable versus competition. Using latest firmware for both camera and lens. When good light and shooting at mid to high aperture, it is much better but still hunts. The SL2-s is contrast detect vs phase detect and is normally very fast and accurate (and no PDAF artifacts when converting images to monochrome!). I also use the Canon RF 85mm f/1.2 on R5 and no hunting at all. Still would highly recommend this lens for size, price and image quality.

Better than 85 GM, So Sony needs to release the 85 F1.2 to top this

Everything I was hoping it would be, the 1.4 aperture is fantastic and the size makes it easy to take it anywhere that I want to go without weighing me down.

I bought this lens and extras for my very talented and creative son for birthday/Christmas. This lens is very very sharp (photographs) (Sony a7III). He is very happy with the Sigma line up for Sony. Adorama is very quick from order time to shipping and to your door A++

Really happy with the lens so far; I?ve used it on two portrait sessions and was pleased with the quick autofocus and beautiful glass. I appreciate the multiple ways to control aperture, but definitely have to get used to it. I keep forgetting that I have it set to the click wheel on the lens, and try to control it with the camera! I also thought the lens hood was stuck on for a bit, and had simply missed that there?s a nice button on the bottom that keeps the hood hanging tight to the lens. Nice feature but again, just something new.

Honestly it's my favorite lens in my kit to shoot with. The Sony 85 gm is just as sharp with almost the same bokeh but this one knocks it out of the park! Its lighter, a bit smaller and the autofocus is stupid quite, whereas in the sony is has this annoying gear noise. I sold my gm and got two sigma with that and have had no regrets at all.

What can I say, everything you read about this lens is true. It performs incredible on the A7R IV, as we need great glass with 61MP! Wide open at F/1.8, it even beats the sharpness easily of the Sony 135GM, and beats the Sony 85MM F/1.8 as well. Once the 135GM is stopped down to F/2.8, the GM might be only a hair sharper, close call. The colors are perfect, Sigma is on fire with their DG DN line. I also have the Sigma 35mm F/1.2 which is stellar. BUT, Sigma fixed the one issue aggravating wit...

Best portrait lens
By Brian M.
Best professional portrait lens on market.
Over the years, the Art line F1.4 has evolved, and now it's ready to redefine the mirrorless age with the 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens for Sony E. This lens is a perfect blend of large-diameter, unparalleled optical performance, compactness, lightweight, and high-speed autofocus, all designed to fit in the palm of your hand.
This lens is specifically designed for portrait photography, offering a clear and delicate rendering performance coupled with beautiful, rich bokeh effects. These effects are made possible by the large-diameter F1.4, satisfying both professional photographers and advanced amateurs. The 85mm focal length and significant bokeh effect at F1.4 brightness allow your subjects to stand out, enhancing the essence of portrait photography.
The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens is a mirrorless-exclusive design, boasting a lightweight and compact body that defies convention. Despite its small size, it's packed with a range of functionalities, including a dust- and splash-proof structure, supported by an excellent build quality.
This lens is SIGMA's new "ultimate portrait lens" for the mirrorless age, offering unprecedented portability, free from size- or weight-related limitations. The high performance of this lens is synonymous with the 85mm F1.4 | Art, a specification almost synonymous with a portrait lens.
SIGMA has devoted the latest optical design technologies and production technologies of the Aizu factory, SIGMA's only production site, to the development of these lenses. The result is a detailed image critical for portrait photography that is achieved at a level that will satisfy both professional and advanced amateur photographers.
The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens incorporates the latest high refractive index glass, which works to thoroughly correct aberrations that cannot be handled by the correction functionality on the camera side. With a particular emphasis given to the correction of axial chromatic aberration, users will enjoy sharp images with no color bleeding, all the way up to the maximum aperture of F1.4.
The high resolving power that covers the entire image from the center to the edges ensures sharpness of the area in focus, and coupled with the significant bokeh effect produced by the F-value of 1.4 brings out the users' subject in an evocative way.
The lens also minimizes ghosting, ensuring clear, sharp images even when shooting in backlit conditions. With the ability to shoot from the maximum aperture of F1.4 without worrying about image quality, users can focus on the camera operations to realize their artistic expressions, such as the adjustment of exposure and depth of field.
The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens weighs 630g/ 22.2oz., with a filter size of 77mm and a body length of 94.1mm/ 3.7in.. Designed exclusively for mirrorless cameras, it has a "large lens diameter and superb optical performance" and "a lightweight and compact body," a combination which has long been difficult to achieve.
The AF motor system employs a stepping motor which is optimized for both phase detection AF and contrast AF. This provides a smooth shooting experience only possible with a mirrorless camera, such as face/eye detection AF, and it has also made the lens body itself much smaller, as the focus lens has been made small to better suit a stepping motor.
Furthermore, by making the most of the in-camera aberration correction functionalities, SIGMA was able to concentrate on the correction of aberration that could be handled by the optical system alone, which further contributed to making the lens smaller in size.
With such a lightweight and small body, users can now take out a large-diameter 85mm F1.4 lens for everyday use such as taking snapshots. The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens invites users to enjoy photography in an unconventional way.
This compact lens is packed with a range of functionalities that will satisfy both professional and advanced amateur photographers. The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens has newly introduced an "Iris ring lock switch." This prevents from unintended movement of the iris ring during shooting, allowing users to devote their attention to the creation of their image.
The "Focus Mode Switch" on the lens body and the "AFL button" that allows various functions to be assigned from a camera body will also assist users' shooting. In addition to the dust- and splash-proof structure, the lens uses materials such as aluminum and TSC (Thermally Stable Composite) where they are best suited, achieving a level of build quality that is worthy of the Art line.
In addition to the durability of the body, the lens pursues quality in terms of how users "feel" as well, such as the smooth motion in which each ring or switch works, and the precise hand feeling. The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art lens helps ensure users a smooth shooting experience in every condition.
This bundle also includes the Hoya NXT Plus 77mm UV+CPL Filter Kit, a Cleaning Kit, and a Cloth, providing you with everything you need to maintain the quality and longevity of your lens.
