105mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art overview
The Sigma 105mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art is a 105mm f/1.4 prime for full-frame cameras on Canon EF / EF-S, Nikon F, Sony E-mount and L-Mount, announced by Sigma in February 2018. 104 cameras we track take it without an adapter. It is discontinued, so new stock may be limited.
Going by its spec sheet, it suits portraits and low light. It is a weaker pick for travelling light and close-ups.
New, it sells for A$2,569 in Australia (Camera House). Over the last 90 days it has usually cost A$2,200 to A$2,569 new.
Worth comparing it with the Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 105mm f/1.4E ED, Sony FE 100mm F2.8 STF GM OSS and Sony FE 85mm F1.4 GM.
