Sigma Art Lens
Best high performance prime for professional portrait photographers.
This lens finally solves the compromise between zoom convenience and prime-level sharpness. By maintaining a constant f/2 aperture, it delivers the low-light performance usually reserved for fixed focal lengths. It is a heavy, serious piece of glass, but the trade-off is unmatched versatility for those who refuse to sacrifice image quality.
