The elephant in the room....
If you have been in the game long enough than you are no stranger to hearing about the Bokeh King! That's right, the one and only Sigma 105mm ART F1.4 lens, this monster of a lens weighs in at whopping 3.625lbs (58oz) in all honestly the tripod collar on the lens should have been a good indication this beast has some weight to it!
Let's talk about the Bokeh effect on this lens! IT IS DREAMY - oh my god is it ever, its sharp edge to edge, i don't pixle peep but if you do, feel free until your heart it content. This lens stands up to its name of being the King of Bokeh! The weight is there, the glass is HUGE i mean like damn! I can put those things to the side for the image results it produces!
This lens is branded as a portrait lens, can you use it in other fields...sure why not?! I mean all lenses are universal to a point if you think about it. I've read about landscpe photographers using it for landscape, just keep room and DOF in mind when you use it.
Now lets talk pricing, this lens retails for over $2,000 CAD in 2024 i was lucky enough to snag a online deal out of Quebec for like $1,800.00 thanks to Excellent Photo, shipping wasn't to bad either, Canada Post to a little longer to ship it than what i wanted but still arrived without issue and that is what matters the most to me!?
I highly recommend following me on either Facebook or Instagram to stay up to date on the journey with this lens! Don't worry i am not going to spam you either, i hate that as much as you do!
