Overview

The Sigma 50mm F1.2 DG DN | Art is a premium standard prime offering excellent optical quality at its wide-open aperture, with impressive sharpness and attractive bokeh thanks to a 13-blade diaphragm. Weaknesses are minimal, though some may find it slightly large. Build quality is excellent with dust/splash resistance and a water/oil-repellent coating. It features an aperture ring, AFL button, and dual HLA autofocus. At $1399, it undercuts Sony's 50mm F1.2 GM while offering similar performance, suiting portrait, wedding, and general-purpose photographers.
