    Nice review! I am having a hard time deciding between the canon 1.4 and if I should save some more for the Canon RF 1.2. Considering Im having the R6, how well would the IS of 1.4 helps out in low light situation. Or would the 1.2 be a better option vs this 1.4 IS. Thank you

      RF 85mm f1.2 is the king of 85mm when taking portraits. For me it’s even better than 135mm.
      Sharpness and the bokeh and blurred background all are perfect. The thing is it’s $3000 and it’s kinda expensive for me.

    I was phasing out my EF lenses.. but I really want a solid 85mm.
    The RF 85 1.2 is amazing.. but at $2700
    I just can't justify that atm.
    So here I am weighing out the Sigma vs Canon 85 1.4..
    I love the Sigma Art series but I think That 85 1.4L IS hits all the things I want.

  • @iancurrie8844

    The sigma was designed with no compromises in mind to optical quality. That explains the geometry. The Canon was designed with IS and size in mind. With a modern mirrorless, the sigma is the one to get - especially given the cost! Do you need IS at 1.4? NO.

    Nice comparison! Considering that RF 85mm f1.2 is out of reach for a normal person like me, these two are realistically the best options eos Rs shooters. I have 35 & 85 canon Ls and 50 & 135 sigma ARTs. These are, I think, the best prime options for Canon hobbyists.

    Tamaron 85 1.8 SP is better. I bought a few of the SP lenses a few years back and in hindsight, they were amazing. I was using Zeiss primes (still do) so they were sold- but going through my Lightroom catalog now, they were beautiful.
    And DxO Mark agrees. They need a new PR department.

    I'm surprised by the fact that in your test the Canon is the sharper one. I do have the Canon 85mm 1.4L IS which is a fairly nice lens, but most reviews reported the opposite when it comes to sharpness. Maybe Canon made some improvement to this model and that would be less likely or your Sigma Copy needs some calibration which makes more sense in my opinion. With regard to the rest of your conclusions especially about chromatic aberration test, your results seem pretty reasonable there

    • @jonowebster
      @jonowebster Рік тому +1

      I think he got that wrong too. The sample images had the sigma ahead. I've owned 6 Sigma ART primes, 35, 50, 85, 105, 135 and with the exception of the 35mm they are all razor sharp when using a body with dual pixel auto focus. I do agree with his overall conclusion though if you shoot video or moving subjects.

    • @NoahStephens

      I agree, also from the video itself, in all examples the Sigma is clearly ahead of Canon in sharpness and contrast. All the other comparisons that I saw also second that. I can only think he's got a very bad copy, also for the AF, I had both 50 Art and 135 Art, sold both and now I have the 40 Art, and all of them (on Canon R6) have perfect autofocus, spot on, 100 shots on 100 shots are tack sharp. I just ordered the 85 Art (so I passed from 50 + 135 to now 40 + 85), I'll test it as soon at it arrives, but I expect an impeccable AF. The only REAL issue with the 85 Art is the filter thread (but it was probably needed for light transmission and vignette, in fact the vignette is way less then the Canon 85 1.4), I shoot a lot of portraits with ND outdoor in bright light (I don't like HSS), and I'm looking around for an ND32/ND64, but there are very few brands/models with such diameter, and prices are STELLAR...

    Hands down for Canon. However, I think it is important to highlight in Canada at least - the Canon camera is sold without anything else. No lens hood, caps, or carrying case. Sigma includes all of them and the warranty is 7 years. For Canon the warranty is limited in USA and Canada.

  • @ritrattoaziendale
    @ritrattoaziendale 11 місяців тому +1

    From what I can see on my screen (1080p Eizo, color/bright calibrated), both examples at f1.4 (especially) and f2, ether in the centre and in the corners, the Sigma is clearly sharper then the Canon by a noticeable margin (only while pixel peeping...but that's what we're doing!), and even has visibly more contrast. EDIT: also all the other examples at f5.6 and f8, Sigma is justly slightly sharper then Canon, very marginally, but that's it. There's no single image where I can spot a superior performance from the Canon, very strange.

      Sigma is notoriously known for focusing issues while Canon is superior in this field. I will not buy any Sigma for this reason alone.

      @@yummm8775 15/20 years ago yes; today Sigma Art are super precise even on dslr, and if you know how the AF sensor is working on mirrorless cameras, you'll see why today focus is a non issue with any of the third party manufacturer.

    Ehm. Looking at those sharpness photos, you say that Canon is sharper, but in those same photos you are showing, Sigma looks quite clearly sharper to me, yet you say Canon is sharper. Not sure if your left eye is sharper than your right one, or whats the deal.
