Well, this picture seems to be boreing and not very interesting. But today was a lucky day...
While on business trip thru Berlin i checked one local dealer for his offerings.. just asking for some Zuikos, but either not in stock or to expensive. But then i asked for a lens and he said: "Yes man, i have one in stock....!" 2 seconds later it was mounted on an E620 and in my hands....
Uff, that lens is great....got a fair "houseprice" and took it with me home. 350 KM long way with that fat lens on the seat and no Oly cam with me. Stress !
But now it works.

It is: SIGMA 50mm f1.4 EX DG HSM.
Never thought i would ever buy a Sigma lens. And no focusproblems at all.

Looks good! Nice and sharp! Is this wide open? Never know how to reveal exif data myself :cry:
I have good experiences with the Sigma 24/1.8

Uff... f1.4 is a task. The DOF is soooo small just a little wind and everything is OoF.....DOnt even think moving a little. Not the Modell, not the cam

Who said SIGMA lenses have a quality problem and need to be reworked ???
At least my SIGMA 50 F1.4 EX DG HSM has no issues...

It is sharp


so sharp


Sharp as the knifes bit, Look the spot where the knife cuts thru the pear...
