Re: My Sigma 35 1.4 just went back to store
I would go with the canon 35mm IS - the stabilizer will let you experiment with some motion blur. ie you could hand hold it at 1/15th or 1/10th and take a shot of a stationary person in a fast moving crowd - much harder to pull off with the sigma without a tripod
Also it's smaller/lighter and should be a very sharp lens from what i've read
Remember not to be afraid of high ISO as well, try shooting at f11 or f16 at 1600/3200 ISO in bright sunlight, some lenses render differently when stopped down - I use a voightlander 21mm f4 on a sony-5n for street/market shooting and while it's great wide open it has a really nice feel to it when stopped down alot - just something worth experimenting with
