The best 35mm f1.4 lens in 2026!
In this video, I take a close look at the brand-new Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art II – and let me tell you right now: for me, it's currently the best 35mm lens on the market. I test the lens extensively in practical use (including against the Sony 35mm f/1.4 GM) and show you how it performs wide open and in various real-world shooting situations. Of course, the sharpness, bokeh, and overall image quality are particularly interesting – and this is precisely where this lens shines.
The Sigma 35mm f/1.4 Art II delivers impressive image quality, extremely high sharpness even at f/1.4, and beautiful bokeh. Add to that high-quality build and performance that is absolutely convincing for both photography and video.
