This year Sigma announced that the majority of its ART series lenses are going to be released in a native Sony FE mount with a few fundamental tweaks to improve performance on a Sony platform. When they were announced, I was very interested in how they would compare to adapting the Canon EF mount lenses via the Sigma MC-11 Adapter/Mount Converter, which actually works quite well. I brought in a new Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART FE (A018) version of the lens along with a Canon EF version (via the Sigma MC-11) to compare on my Sony a7R3. I discovered a number of interesting things, which I will share through a number of videos that I will post here on this page as they are released. In the meantime, you can also see photos taken during the review with the A018. After the release of the final review I will add a quick summation below.
