Sigma56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E Mount with Altura Photo Advanced Accessory and Travel Bundle

For the price? Are you kidding me? This is an amazing lens! Just got it in the mail and wanted to share my thoughts.First off this lens is a budget lens so I didn't expect too much when it comes to the build quality, but my oh my does the image quality shine. One thing I love is the DOF (depth of field). The DOF on this lens is absolutely fantastic for the price. This is my first prime lens for this camera. No regrets. It was between the 30mm or this for portraits. Although I have no comparison to other prime lens, I can tell you that it's definitely worth every penny and I just got it too.Pros-f1.4 (low light monster)-lightweight-image qualityCons-image stabilizationOverall, this lens exceeded my expectation and performs great for this price.

SIGMA 56mm f1.4 DC DN is a very sharp prime lens. It's not too big or too heavy. It is better than all the Sony native lenses. This is the best protrait lens for APSC camera to my concern. Distortion of the this lens is well controlled and color is better than any other Sony lenses. It has weather sealing protection and very good in low light situation. I don't have auto focus problem so far ( It is little sluggish by some reviewers). I got the lens seven weeks ago from Amazon and I shot only approx. two dozens pictures. Time will tell about the auto focus. I have another two Sigma lenses for my Sony APSC cameras and they are the best.CONS: I found out auto focus is little sluggish after using the lens for some times.

Just received this kit today. I was looking to just get the sigma 56mm but seen this kit with a bunch of cool stuff with quicker shipping and about the same price. Glad I did. Digital Gogo really hooked it up. All the Altura stuff is quality with the 64GB sandisk ultra card. I haven't used the lens enough to leave a review on it but I love what I've seen of it so far. If you're looking for the Sigma 56mm F1.4, just get this kit! It's worth if even if you only used 1 item in the kit and it's all pretty decent stuff. The magicfiber clothes are top notch!

I love this sense, I pair it with my 6400 all the time. but if you're going to be using it for video then you'll have to get a gimbal also because to has no IBIS whatsoever.

This lens is fantastic! For my first prime lens, the image quality over the kit lens really stands out! The extra stuff that the seller includes with this purchase, I didn't really have a need for, but I will end up using it anyways. The filters fit the lens, and the camera bag is actually really nice and small. Perfect for the Sony A6000. I would recommend this lens to any sony user. Great bokeh, sharp photos. Its fast, so the lack of image stabilization isn't really a factor. Me likey likey!

Its by far the best image quality I have seen on my Sony Alpha 6000/6400 cameras. Nothing even comes close to this.The only way it can be better is if we have image stabilization. Its definitely not a big deal but would be a possible area of improvement.

The lens I use the most on my Sony a6500 and a6300 is the Sony/Zeiss 16-70mm f4. This Sigma f1.4 lens gives me 3 stops more light in a very small, lightweight package. As with my Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens, if I'm actually shooting wide-open at f1.4, I'll tend to choose the DMF (direct manual focus) on my Sony bodies to be able to quickly greatly magnify the image in the viewfinder for precise confirmation of focus. I'm very glad Sigma offers these excellent lenses for Sony APS-C bodies so I don't have to carry the size and weight of lenses intended for full-frame bodies. I'm grateful Amazon offered a bundle with extras for the same price as the lens alone (on Amazon or other sites when I bought). When I bought from Amazon, the price of this lens (bundled or not) was about $50 less than today.

The only reason I picked this one is because it was a bundle...all I got was the lens. So I returned this one and bought from another seller and saved 20-30$.
