50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM

The Perfect Standard Prime

Sigma''s 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM is high quality, professional optics and you’ll know it the minute you pick it up. In the past few years, camera manufacturers have overlooked the need for a reasonable fast prime lens that is compact enough for everyday use, yet provides the necessary image quality to meet the highest expectations. Now, with the advent of the APS-C cameras, the long popular 50mm focal length takes on double duty as a portrait length lens of approximately 75mm on most of the small chip cameras.

Dimensions (Diameter x Length): 84.5 x 68.2 mm/3.3 x 2.7 in

Weight: 505g / 17.8oz.

    Product Description

    L9) 50MM F1.4EX F/NIK DG HSM Lens

    Amazon.com

    Designed for Nikon digital SLR cameras, the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 prime lens is ideal for a wide range of applications, from landscape photography to portraiture. The lens offers an extra-large aperture that guarantees superior peripheral brightness, helping create sharp images with high contrast even at the edges. The molded glass aspherical lens, meanwhile, perfectly corrects for coma aberration to ensure that images look sharp and crisp against a nicely blurred background. And thanks to the integrated Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM), the lens enjoys a silent, high-speed autofocus system. Other features include a super multilayer lens coating that reduces flare and ghosting, a minimum focusing distance of 17.7 inches, and a maximum magnification of 1:7.4. As with all Sigma lenses, this 50mm lens carries a one-year warranty.

    Looking very nice! - when it is in focus!! Now a 1 star rating!
    I am just getting back to SLR photography after giving it up 10+ years ago. Currently using this lens on a Nikon D300s and so far the bokeh, the details, the precision is very nice. So using it more as a portrait type lens but can be quite versatile. See the photo uploaded here for results.******************************************************UPDATE: June 9, 2011After using this for a full year, I have to say that this is an excellent lens ... when it is in focus.I begun noticing some images are not 100% in focus ... which I thought it was not an issue for a while ... now I think it can be an issue as I can repeat the problem. See the pictures in the comments below. Essentially, if I focus on infinity (e.g. rotate it manually to infinity) and have it auto-focus on something close by, I can make it not focus.I purchased this last year during a father's day promotion and got a good deal. Would I recommend this lens again - yes. I gave it a 5 stars originally and now brought it down to 3.******************************************************Update: May 23, 2012After using this for almost 2 years now, I have made to decision to send it back for service.Obtained a test sheet and managed to demonstrate that regardless what I do with AF Fine Tune - which is an important feature with my Nikon D300s - I could not get it to focus sharply in the middle if my aperture is set to f/2.8 or below. It seems that larger apertures the lens just could not focus. See the lines and settings on AF Fine Tune and resulting test images here: [...]Planning to send it back for service.

    主にD7200で使用してます

    APS-Cだと35mm換算で75mmになるので、ホーム上等から線路1本挟んで対向の列車をなるべく後ろまで撮影したい時は
    このレンズがベストです
    前ピンはボディーで調整して使ってます

    F1.4なのでシャッター速度も稼げて良いのですが、幾らでも明るく出来るので露出設定に迷う事があります
    シャッター速度優先モードだと露出オーバーになりやすいので注意が必要です

    見た目やデザインも良くカッコいいレンズですね
