oudjunk Posted September 9, 2019 Share #1 Posted September 9, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just watched this review on last weekend. If i'm not wrong this is the first auto focus lens for 35mm f1.2. I trust the quality from Sigma. What do you guys think about this lens? PS. I'm excited that there are many lenses can use with Leica SL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlosgavina Posted September 10, 2019 Share #5 Posted September 10, 2019 I'm interested in knowing the auto-focus performance of this lens on an SL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mick H Posted September 10, 2019 Share #6 Posted September 10, 2019 Hi All: I use it mostly at f/1.2. This is my first 35mm prime. I have used the SL 24-90 extensively and found that I was shooting in the 35-45 range for in close portraits. I considered the 40 1.4 Art but I decided on the 35 1.2 Art as it is native L mount and mirrorless only in design and of course faster. I have the 105 1.4 Art on a Novoflex AF adapter and it's quality is spectacular so I figured the 35 1.2 Art would be sufficient for my needs. And it is. Interestingly, the 35 1.2 Art is exactly the same size as my SL 24-90. The 35 1.2 is very versatile as the close focus distance allows near macro performance for detail shots. FYI, I have had my SL since Feb 2017 and have been following this forum since before then. This is a fantastic forum. I will attach some sample pics. Please excuse the watermarks and res. Images have been edited to my vision. Mick www.hetmandesign.com fb: Mick Hetman Photography Welcome, dear visitor!

bags27 Posted September 11, 2019 Share #7 Posted September 11, 2019 (edited) Advertisement (gone after registration) Yikes! nearly a pound heavier than the current 50mm Noctilux and 1.5 lb heavier than the 35 f/1.4 FLE! Autofocus has its drawbacks.... Edited September 11, 2019 by bags27 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colonel Posted September 11, 2019 Share #9 Posted September 11, 2019 If this lens was 200g lighter I would already have it My decision is still pending. Probably end up getting it though ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NRKstudio Posted October 10, 2019 Share #13 Posted October 10, 2019 But for the size, def an incredible lens. I had the sigma 28/1.4 art, and it was also extremely top notch, but the 35/1.2 def bests it with IQ and the incremental advances made at f1.2. The 28 did have full MF over ride with the focus ring which the 35 doesn’t have. Both put out some excellent files. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
