Roger at LensRentals.com has completed his initial testing of the Sigma 24-35mm f/2 Art series lens and has come away pretty impressed.

Some people are going to be a bit disappointed (I admit I am a bit myself) because they really wanted a zoom that was every bit as good as their prime lenses. What we actually have is a zoom that's as good at f/2.0 in the center as their prime lenses, but like almost every other zoom isn't quite as good as a prime off-axis. When even the best optical engineers (and lately Sigma seems to have some of the best optical engineers) design a wide-aperture zoom lens, some compromises have to be made. In this case there's a lot of astigmatism away from center. There's good news for you who are disappointed now: Computer image analysis (like Imatest and DxO) don't show astigmatism directly so this lens will probably look better with those test results than it does on the optical bench.
