Review: Astonishing lens for portraits, not for the casual user. - I just bought this lens and I am just overwhelmed by the sharpness, quality of the bokeh and corner to corner clarity of it. It is truly an astonishing piece of glass that outperforms many primes, including the Nikon 50mm f/1.8. It is not an easy lens though, it is extremely large and heavy, and the depth of field at f/1.8 is so shallow you can take a portrait and focus on one eye while missing the other one, this is even more noticeable due to the extreme sharpness of this lens. It does not have image stabilization so it is easy to have a blurred picture. All that said, it is not for the casual user, but if you use it correctly, it produces some of the most beautiful images I have ever seen on a DX sensor. It has plenty of focus breathing, and it is strangely backwards (the image appears larger when you focus closely). That makes it even more noticeable when you pull focus while shooting video. I haven't tested it long enough to see the AF issues other users report. I will update the review when I do.
Review: Outstanding, crystal clear lens - I have this lens mounted on a Nikon D500 and I am using it primarily for outdoor running photography. Many times I'm taking photos in early morning low light conditions. Having a lens as fast as this makes it easy to get crystal clear shots without needing to boost the ISO excessively high. The autofocus speed, particularly paired with the D500, is excellent. Image quality is spectacular, even wide open. The only disadvantage to this lens is the weight. This is definitely one of those cliched "you could drive nails with it" heavy, solid lenses. The zoom ring is stiff. I don't personally see that as an issue, though - no chance of accidentally bumping the zoom ring and ruining the composition of your shot. The built-in tripod mount ring is a handy feature. No, it isn't removable, which has been a complaint for some people. The good news from my perspective is that is not in the way and actually provides a handy grip to stabilize this heavy lens when hand holding. Overall, an excellent lens for close to mid-range action photography and undoubtedly just as good, if not better, for portrait or stand-off street photography. I'll update my review once I put it through its paces in those areas.

## Features

- Covering three very popular short tele focal lengths when crop factor is considered 85mm, 105mm, and 135mm this lens equates to a 75-150mm constant F1.8 aperture zoom.
- As an Art lens, the sharpness, even wide open, will rival primes while offering .
- expected to be widely popular with both still photographers and videographers

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Astonishing lens for portraits, not for the casual user.
*by O***E on April 2, 2018*

I just bought this lens and I am just overwhelmed by the sharpness, quality of the bokeh and corner to corner clarity of it. It is truly an astonishing piece of glass that outperforms many primes, including the Nikon 50mm f/1.8. It is not an easy lens though, it is extremely large and heavy, and the depth of field at f/1.8 is so shallow you can take a portrait and focus on one eye while missing the other one, this is even more noticeable due to the extreme sharpness of this lens.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for D7100 and indoor sports
*by J***S on January 27, 2017*

I bought this lens to shoot indoor grade/high school basketball with my D71000 and so far I really like it. I am rating it a 4 because I have a lot of miss focus when shooting low light, action. I would like to give it a 4.5 if I could. It could be me and/or the D71000, but it seems to be a little higher in the missed focus than my other lens. Yes it is heavy, but to me that is a good thing and means quality. It is a solid build. I have used it a couple times at tournaments and took it to a grade school practice to give it a good workout. I also have the Nikon 80-200 2.8 lens and the 1.8 on lens really makes a difference in the poor lighting at the gyms. When I get it in focus it is super sharp, but the 1.8 is not very forgiving if you miss focus a bit. Once I purchase the Sigma Dock, I am going AF Fine Tune the lens to make sure I am sharp at every focal length. I don't really like having to buy the Sigma Dock to do this, but the benefit is with Dock you have 16 categories you can calibrate. If you don't want to buy the Dock you can still Fine Tune it using the Nikon Fine Tune in the camera which limits you to one setting for front or back focus that applied throughout the entire range of the lens. Physically it is about the same size as my Nikon 80-200 2.8 if it weighs about 4 ounces more than the Nikon.
