When paired with the 50MP 5DS R, results aren't quite as outstanding. It increases slightly as you stop down, peaking at 2,625 lines at f/5.6-that's about as much resolution as you can hope for from the 6D. That's better than the 1,800 lines we want to see at a minimum from a lens when paired with a sensor in the 18 to 24MP range. With the 6D, which has a sensor resolution in line with most current full-frame SLRs, the lens manages a very strong 2,438 lines per picture height on the center-weighted Imatest (Opens in a new window) evaluation. I've tested the Sigma 35mm with a pair of cameras, the 20MP Canon EOS 6D ($1,699.00 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window) and the 50MP Canon EOS 5DS R ($3,899.00 at Buydig) (Opens in a new window). A small window at the top of the barrel shows the current focus distance, with markings in feet and meters. If you want a 35mm with near macro performance, consider the Tamron SP 35mm-it locks on at 7.9 inches, which results in a 1:2.5 magnification ratio.

That's pretty typical for a 35mm f/1.4 lens. There is a focus toggle switch, useful if you want to disable autofocus entirely.įocus is possible as close as 11.8 inches, magnifying subjects at 1:5 life-size.

The stiffest competition in its price range is the Tamron SP 35mm f/1.8 Di VC USD ($589.99 at Amazon) (Opens in a new window), another Editors' Choice that sacrifices some light-gathering capability and shows more chromatic aberration, but adds image stabilization, a boon for handheld video recording. Even though it falls a little short of the Canon competition when paired with a 50MP sensor, it retains our Editors' Choice based on its value and superb performance with more mainstream cameras. Over the time since we first reviewed the lens the competition has gotten stiffer, and image sensors have dramatically increased in resolution, so we're updating our take to look at the lens on both 20MP and 50MP bodies. As the first full-frame prime lens in the company's Global Vision Art series it made a big impact, undercutting other f/1.4 lenses in price without sacrificing image or build quality. Not the best option for ultra-high-resolution cameras.Īt the time of its launch in 2013, the Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM Art ($899) was a revelation.
