Which prime lens is actually the sharpest for Sony E-mount systems right now? I just finally upgraded to the A7R V and man that 61 megapixel sensor is really showing the flaws in my older glass so I need something that can keep up.
I'm torn between getting the Sony 35mm f/1.4 GM or maybe that Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art everyone raves about for portraits. I've got a wedding coming up in Seattle next month and I really want those crisp shots for the couple. My budget is around $1400-$1600 but I could maybe go higher if it's truly the sharpest thing out there... is the Sony really worth the extra cash over the Sigma art line??
The Sony FE 35mm f/1.4 GM is basically the benchmark for sharpness on that A7R V. It resolves the 61MP sensor beautifully across the frame. Just a quick tip: you really gotta keep your shutter speeds higher than usual with that many megapixels, or you wont even notice the lens quality. The Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art is also a decent option if you prefer that 85mm look for weddings.
