Happy with this purchase. Tack-sharp, and I love the bokeh. I use it for indoor portraiture mostly, with my R5 (w/ adapter). I use it for outdoors too. It’s not a light lens, but because of what it can do, I don’t mind the weight. Thankful that Bestbuy carry it. I trust their products and customer service.

I debated whether to get this or the high end Canon equivalent. I was able to test the Canon at the same time I purchased this lens and I have to say, for a lens that is significantly cheaper, I feel I am getting better shots with this lens. The bokeh is amazing when shooting wide open. Beyond that, it is quick to focus, virtually silent and creates sharp, crisp images. I could not be happier with my purchase. If you are personally debating whether to get this lens or the Canon, I don't think you would be disappointed with this. Oh, here's another thing, Sigma offers a four year warranty for their lenses AND if you call them, you get to talk to someone quickly. They are a family based business and I find their level of customer service far superior to that of Canon's.

We have rented Sigma lenses in the past and ended up loving their performance in comparison to the Canon L series lenses for half the cost! So sharp, vibrant colors, etc. We now own a Sigma 30mm, and now this Sigma 50mm. 100% would recommended to any photographer who wants great quality, without having to spent too much money!

It's cheaper than a Canon 1.2 and better than their 1.4. I really like the Sigma Art lenses for being super sharp and having good color, but like 30% off compared to Canon or Nikon. If I ever need another 50mm, this is what I'll buy again.

The 50mm Sigma Art is a great lens. Images are crisp and brokeh smooth. The focal length is perfect paired with full frame camera body. Highly recommend.
