Quote:And why are you testing a lens at the end of it's lc, especially when the new replacement is already announced? It's just a question, not a complaint. Since the new one comes as part of the Art-Series, the same one the new 35/1.4 belongs to, I'd be much more curious to test that one instead of that old glass.
Oops, I just realized, I need to be careful not to become a Sigma fanboy just because one real good piece of glass and also, because I had 4 Sigmas before with Pentax mount and never a problem with them. Okay, never such pictures with as with the 35/1.4 either, but that's a different story. :wub:
Well, sometimes the testing overlaps with the announcements. We'll not throw away the results.
The same happened to me with the Sigma 19mm & 30mm for NEX - albeit in this case there's at least no change in optical design.
