Sigma 85mm f/1.4 EX DG HSM
In our test shootout of four top-notch 85mm f/1.4s last spring, this Sigma entry edged the other competitors by a hair in SQF and was also the least expensive by far. Plus it’s available in the most lensmounts. The usual Sigma attention to detail includes a lenshood that comes with an adapter to lengthen it for use with APS-C-sensor cameras—neat!
