Lenses / Re: Sigma 85 1.4 + 5D Mark III ?? Photos and comments?

Thanks for the input Guy!  ;D
Much appreciated.

The Sigma build quality is very good

About the build quality, is it similar to a canon 18-135mm or any other non-L canon lens?

Lenses / Sigma 85 1.4 + 5D Mark III ?? Photos and comments?
« on: July 21, 2012, 11:22:42 AM »
Does anybody have photos with this combo? Any advises or anything I should be aware of? Any comments on the build quality? Never had any experience with third party lenses before.  :-\
 
I have a 5D3 right now and I want to add my first fast prime to my kit (24-105,16-35II) and I'm pretty comfortable with a 85mm lens instead of a nifty-fifty since I prefer a slightly tighter view than normal, when I'm not doing landscapes anyway. 

Just some additional info, the reason I'm going for the sigma rather than the 1.8 canon equiv. is because I heard nothing but good things with the sigma's IQ and bokeh. Forgetting the autofocus since it's a hit or miss, I don't mind going through several lenses till I get a proper one. Who knows I might get a keeper on my first try.  ;)

And since we're talking sigma, anyone have experience with the sigma 20mm f 1.8 ex aspherical dg df rf on fullframe?

I shoot anything but a bit more inclined to landscapes. I'm a photography student and I'm still trying to experiment and see what really fits me but here's my flickr page http://www.flickr.com/photos/josephmonis/ if any of you would like to see my photos.
Ok this is getting too long  ;D

I actually like the look of it, sure it isn't retro-looking like the Fuji X series or the Leicas but I don't find it ugly at all.

I don't have money to spend at the moment, but I can't wait to see what else canon has to offer.  ;D
