I love it. AF is awesome. Bokeh is exceptional. Weight is the only downside. It's one heavy monster of a lens.

If I am being perfectly honest I wasn't sure about upgrading from my Sony 50mm 1.8. it was my workhorse lens and I used it for so many situations for shooting wedding video. But 3 weddings in with this lens and I absolutely adore it. The Bokeh is ridiculous. Like wide open at 1.4 it's super creamy with fantastic colors. It's super sharp too. The auto focus on my FX3 is excellent. The mark of a good auto focus lens is following first dances and this lens does it much better than my old 1.8.

Yeah you could buy one of those expensive "Brand names" for an extra $800-$1500, but their not going to give you nearly as much clarity for the extra cost. This lens is one of the best I've owned at this focus length, and you be hard pressed to find anything better at this cost point.

It is a great lens! The photo quality was everything I could have hoped for! I must admit it was on the heavier end of lenses, but it works great!

Designed with a focus on sophisticated optical performance and tremendous expressive power, SIGMA's Art line delivers high-level artistic quality. The newest addition to the F1.4 series, which has become synonymous with the Art line, is the SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG DN | Art, a large-aperture standard lens designed exclusively for full-frame mirrorless cameras. While retaining the concept of the original SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art that defined the reputation of the Art F1.4 series, SIGMA has reexamined from the very beginning what is truly important in a standard lens used in a wide range of shooting situations. By incorporating all the latest technologies, this lens has achieved a high degree of compatibility between the optimum size and high-speed AF required for today's mirrorless systems, while maintaining the highest-class optical performance.
In addition to the brightness of the large F1.4 aperture and the large, beautiful bokeh effect, various aberrations have been optimally balanced in pursuit of uniform and balanced image quality throughout the entire image range, from the center to the edges of the frame. The result is the new "Art F1.4 50mm," a lens that is truly all-around capable in terms of expressive performance, maneuverability, and usability, and is designed to help photographers create their best work. Introducing the 50mm F1.4 DG DN | Art, SIGMA's ideal "standard" lens.

This advanced lens is built with 14 elements in 11 groups, including 3 aspherical lenses and 1 SLD glass element. This innovative design effectively suppresses various aberrations such as astigmatism and field curvature, ensuring sharp, detailed images from the center to the edges of the frame.
The large F1.4 aperture of this lens allows for bright, clear images, even in low light conditions. It also creates a beautiful bokeh effect, adding depth and dimension to your photos. The lens has been meticulously designed to minimize sagittal coma flare, making it ideal for challenging star and night scenes.
The Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG DN Art Lens is the first in the Art line to adopt the "HLA" linear motor (High-response Linear Actuator), offering fast, quiet focusing and high tracking performance. This makes it perfect for capturing moving subjects or shooting in dark places.
Despite its high performance, this lens is slim and compact, making it a reliable companion for photographers on the go. It features a dust and splash-resistant structure and a front element with a water and oil repellent coating, making it suitable for a wide range of shooting environments.
