For the past couple of months, I've been incredibly busy testing gear from many different manufacturers. But as many of you know who have been readers of this blog for a while, I switched all my DSLR lenses over to Sigma a couple of years back. Why

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens Review
Sigma's latest offering in the Art Lens portfolio is an ultra-wide 20mm full frame lens, for Nikon, Canon and Sigma fit. Not only that, but an extra-bright f/1.4 aperture makes this a desirable optic from the start. All looking good in theory, now let's see how it handled and performed in practice.
Pros:
- Superb optical quality
- Well made
- High control of CA
- Excellent handling
- Excellent AF performance
Cons:
- Price penalty for f/1.4 aperture
- Heavy and bulky
- Not weather resistant

Sigma 20mm F1.4 DG HSM
The Sigma 20mm F1.4 DG HSM is a very fast, tack-sharp prime lens in Sigma's excellent Art series, and also a unique lens to boot, as it's the only 20mm lens in the World to offer an f/1.4 aperture.

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art
At last, a super-wide lens that's sharp and quick! Combining this lens with ISO 6400 on the Canon 5d Mark III and the noise reduction of Lightroom, I am impressed at the scenarios I can shoot hand-held with virtually no light. Candlelight just No issue.
Pros:
- sharp and great colors
Cons:
- no cons

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens Review
Previously not available in focal lengths wider than 24mm, the ultra-wide f/1.4 aperture is now available in the 20mm focal length thanks to Sigma, allowing a wider angle of view to be captured in very low light conditions.

Sigma 20mm F1.4 art lens, I would recommend this product
The lens has good contrast and is sharp as a razor. Good in low light. AF is good, the same as the 35mm 1.4 art. Hoping they can come up with a way to put a filter on it. Would like to use my neutral density with this.
Pros:
- Great Picture Quality
Cons:
- Heavy

Sigma 20mm F1.4 DG HSM Art
Sigma's Art series of f/1.4 prime lenses has delivered consistently strong performance, and its latest entry, the 20mm F1.4 DG HSM Art ($899), is no exception. It manages to capture sharp, ultra-wide images, a heck of a lot of light, and focus close so you have the option of blurring the background...
Pros:
- Sharp from edge to edge
- Minimal distortion
- Short minimum focus distance
- Available for multiple systems
Cons:
- Heavy
- Dim corners and edges
- No support for filters

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM | A ("Art") - Full Format Review / Lens Test
During the last decade the ultra-wide segment has been dominated by zoom lenses but it seems as if prime lenses are about to enter a renaissance. Lately Nikon released a 20mm f/1.8 and we've seen a bunch of updates from Zeiss and some promising announcements from a new player (irixlens.com).

I bought this lens for night astrophotography primarily. This lens does have many great uses at all apertures. Very sharp, great resolution, some distortion which is normal with such a wide angle 20mm lens, color and contrast seem to be accurate. Focus accuracy and speed are pretty good.
