#Sigma 30mm 1.4 canon review series#

That was something I was really hoping would be the case for the Art series lenses by Sigma in general, and there's certainly no disappointment there.Įnjoy the sample images below! Some where shot at a friend's wedding, others were shot in my backyard to test it out around the house. It is fast aperture makes this lens desirable for use with Digital SLR cameras. Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM (A) Rated 4.00 out of 5 based on 1 customer rating.

And not only is the focus fast, but boy is it sharp. And, at the f1.4 setting it produces a wonderfully thin yet easily-manageable depth of field and attractive bokeh, as well as a natural and incredibly creamy vignette which can be toned down by raising the f-stop.

Instead, the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM Art Lens produces a great image which covers the entire swath of the full-frame sensor that is wide enough at its native 30mm focal length to use as a walk-around lens for capturing amazing candid moments. Typically, however, using a lens made for a crop sensor on a full-frame body will create a hard vignette, like what you'd see on a circular fisheye lens, and which can be seen in this photo which I posted last week that was taken with a Canon EOS 6D and a Sigma 17-50mm f/2.8 crop lens. Now, having said the above, since it's a Sigma and not a Canon brand EF-S lens, the mount still allows use of the lens on a full-frame body. I use Canon EOS gear, both crop and full-frame, and this lens was for the EF-S mount, which is the APS-C crop sensor bodies such as the 7D, 80D, and Digital Rebel series cameras. I've made reference to this piece of photo gear in a few comments on other photographers' posts, so I figured I'd just go ahead and write a review of a lens I recently had the pleasure of renting and using for a wedding.
