SIGMA Announces the 14mm F1.8 DG HSM Art Series Lens
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
Here are sample images. I don't have the patience or expertise to examine them for COMA right now, so I'll just let someone else do it and let me know how it is. ;D

No coma! But no stars, either. So no answer to that question. Veiling flare looks pretty strong.

You have to have specific shots for coma testing and these are not.Kit Lens Jockey said:
You have to shoot the stars or leds at the corners or at least some night distant city photos with lights at the corners. So we still have to wait... But there is some time for milky way/ astro landscape shooting at the nothern hemisphere at least...

I thought there were some aspects of COMA that would appear in varying types of photos, such as color fringing.
Well, I tried.

Has Sigma given any more details about Coma in this new lens?
I'm surprised they haven't left one loose to an Astrophotographer.
Surely it would be a major selling point.

It does feel like a massive lens to me, small hands aside. At least this one looks fairly "even" though. My Rokinon 14mm f2.8 is so oddly shaped that I almost hate carrying it around.
But still....f1.8...for night time star shooting...I'm eager to see the reviews on this. Part of me hopes it sucks though, as I've got two other (very expensive) lenses I'd like to get too.

This looks fantastic! I was previously using the 16-35L II for astro (I know it's far from best lens, but I am a poor people who only occasionally shoot astro), but this thing's lack of coma and distortion and with the crazy F1.8 aperture sounded like THE lens for astro photography, come sigma, release it under 15k before september so I can get this baby to my austria trip

15K? Deep pockets indeed!
[/quote]It has to be a typo for 1.5K in reality.

Nope, too late, they're working on it already, targeting $15k for a copy. So whoever asked for it - will have to buy!

15K quetzales? This is an international forum...
