Sigma 56mm f1.4 DC DN Contemporary Review Fuji X:
The Fujifilm X Series system is quite popular because of several reasons with one being there is a great selection of lenses to support the cameras. These lenses aren’t just made by Fujifilm but also from other manufacturers as well. For instance, Sigma has recently started producing lenses with X mount, and one of these is the 56mm f1.4 DC DN Contemporary. I’ve tested this lens previously in other mounts, so while this review may be a bit more condense, I’ll be focusing more on how it performs with X Series cameras. [continue reading…]
Leica Elmarit-M 28mm f2.8 ASPH Lens Review:
We all know, and love those super fast optics like the Noctilux and Summilux lenses but I think what Leica is really good at making as well are compact lenses that don’t necessarily have the largest maximum aperture but instead, offer great handling and usability. An example is pretty much any 35mm Summicron M lens or the Elmarit-M 28mm f2.8 ASPH, which is what I want to talk about here. I owned a 28mm Elmarit-M ASPH a few years ago during my M9 days but the latest version has been slightly updated, so I thought I’d see if I could get one to test out. Here’s what I think of it.

Sigma 24mm f1.4 DG DN Art Lens Review L Mount:
If you’re in the market for a wide angle with a large maximum aperture, Sigma has announced two new lenses today: the 20mm f1.4 DG DN Art, and the 24mm f1.4 DG DN Art. Thanks to them, I received both L mount versions of these lenses to test out before their release date, so I can write reviews for them. As the title suggests, this is the review for the Sigma 24mm f1.4 Art, and what I think about it. Here’s the link to the 20mm f1.4 Art review. [continue reading…]
Sigma 20mm f1.4 DG DN Art Lens Review L Mount:
If you are an L mount user like I am, and you’re looking for an ultra wide angle lens with a large maximum aperture, I have good news for you. Today, Sigma has announced two new lenses that will be added to their collection: the 20mm f1.4 DG DN Art, and the 24mm f1.4 DG DN Art. Thanks to them, I was able to get review samples of both before their release date, so that I could test them out. I wrote two reviews, and if you’re interested, you can find the 24mm f1.4 review here. In this one, I’ll be talking about the 20mm f1.4 Art, and what I think of it. [continue reading…]
Sigma 28mm f1.4 DG HSM Art Lens Review L Mount:
As many of you know, the 28mm is a focal length that is quite popular do to its versatility. It’s great for landscape, street photography, travel, and even environmental portraiture, just to name a few, so it makes sense that companies invest quite a bit in designing a 28mm that photographers want to buy. Sigma has a 28mm that comes in several different mounts including L mount. It’s the Sigma 28mm f1.4 DG HSM Art, and thanks to them, I was able to get my hands on one to test. Here’s what I think of it. [continue reading…]
