Klaus Schroiff has just posted a full review of the newly released Sigma 85mm F1.4 DG DN Art lens ( B&H/ Adorama/ Amazon) at the opticallimits.com. He tested this lens on Sony a7R V and found it is one of the best 85mm lenses that they have tested so far.
Here is the verdict : The build quality is exceptionally high and on the level of professional OEM lenses – other than the rather wobbly front cap. It’s also dust- and splash resistant. The Sigma lens is also surprisingly lightweight and compact for a lens of its class. The dedicated aperture ring offers a de-clicked mode, and you can customize the AF-lock button via the camera. The AF is both quite speedy and noiseless, with the usual caveat that this is heavily dependent on the camera as well…Overall, the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DN DG ART is a winner, and it deserves our highest praise – “Highly Recommended”
