Sigma recently announced a new prime lens to their high-end “Art” range, a 50mm f/1.4. And in a head turning statement they claimed that its competition wouldn’t be Nikon or Canon, but the exceptional $4,000 ZEISS Otus.
Well, thanks to the website Xitek and their recently posted lens test results, we finally get to see if the Sigma 50mm can possibly live up to the hype. Sadly we don’t yet know how much the lens will cost, but if Sigma can deliver the quality of the $4,000 Otus for a fraction of the price, the demand will be huge.
So let’s see how the Sigma 50mm Art f/1.4 DG HSM Art series lens (top left corner in the images below) compares to the Sony Planar T* 50mm f/1.4 ZA SSM (top right corner), the Nikkor AF-S 58mm f/1.4G (bottom left corner) and the ZEISS 55mm f/1.4 Otus (bottom right corner)
