DXOMark has completed their review of the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 Art series lens, and apparently they like it!

From DXOMark:

With its Art series, Sigma has done much to improve its standing as a high-end lens maker. Until only recently, Canon and Nikon were on safe ground with their high-speed primes, but makers such as Sigma and Tamron (and Zeiss) are beginning to make inroads.
