Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art Review
This is an in-depth review of the Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art lens that was announced in February of 2017 along with a few other Sigma Art-series lenses.

Great value with kit and fantastic clarity!
This is a great kit combination, mainly because it includes the USB doc, and the cleaning kit. The lens is suberb! I use super wide angle lenses mainly for astrophotography and I was worried about coma which is a serious problem with most lenses.

Very capable lens
A very capable lens giving very pleasing results. It does however take some time to master but in a good way as I think after practice will be a favourite in my bag. Central frame is extremely sharp and perfect for stars and night scenes. Edge focus washes out quickly but also crops out easily.
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Durable
- Quick Focus
- Rugged
- Sharp Focus
- Strong Construction
Cons:
- Needs a little practice to find the sweet spot

Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art
Ultra-wide lenses aren't everyday tools for most photographers, but for some disciplines they're indispensable. I tend to recommend zooms at this end of the coverage range, as they're more versatile tools, giving you the ability to capture a wider variety of subjects without changing lenses.
Pros:
- Ultra-wide field of view
- Very bright aperture
- Very sharp
- Solid build
- Dust and splash protection
- Available for multiple camera systems
Cons:
- Some barrel distortion
- Soft edges and corners at wide apertures
- Dim corners
- Doesn't support front filters

Sigma 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art Canon Lens - Brand New review
The Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM ART is an impressive lens both physically as well as regarding its creative potential. However, its extreme credentials don't come for free. Yes, it offers an insane max. aperture at this focal length but at least technically you won't find greatness at f/1.8.

Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM ART (Canon) - Review / Test
So Sigma went where no man has gone before ... again. This time we'll explore the new Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM ART. Typically such ultra-wide lenses peak at a speed of (warp ... ah no ...) f/2/8.

Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art
The Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art lens stole the headlines as the first ultra-wide angle lens for full-frame cameras to break the f/2 barrier. No other ultra-wide angle rectilinear lens is as fast. Fast ultra-wide angle lenses are a rarity and your choices in this category are few.

A Great Superwide
This lens offers something other super-wides do not - a fast aperture! This separates it from the other super-wide products. It offers minimal vignetting for such a wide and fast lens and minimal coma - great for astronomy. I had no flare issues while imaging throughout the August 2017 eclipse.
