First comparison between Sigma 56 and Canon 50STM
19

I managed to do some quick comparison shots between these two lenses (though my cat kept trying to help, somewhat slowing me). I shot the same scene (approximately--blame my cat for any differences) wide open (F1.4 on Sigma, F1.8 on Canon), at F2, and at F2.8. I used small spot focus on the left (as you look at it) eye. I processed them in Lightroom using my default processing, with lens corrections applied (LR has the profile for the Sigma as well as the Canon). Here they are, Canon first of each pair:

Canon F1.8

Sigma F1.4

Canon F2

Sigma F2

Canon F2.8

Sigma F2.8

More to come when I have time.

As the length of a thread approaches 150, the probability that someone will make the obvious "it's not the camera, it's the photographer" remark approaches 1.
