Hi guys,
For what seems like not so long ago, everybody was bowled over by the Zeiss Otus range while gagging and coughing slightly when you spotted the price tag, and that was for manual focus.
Then the Milvus hit the scene, more affordably priced, but still MF.
Well the new Sigma 85mm F1.4 Art lens has just knocked them both down a level off of the top step of the podium and throws in an accurate AF into the bargain. I'm finding it at between 1,099 (grey?) to 1,299 euros here on line, that's 500-600 euros less than the Milvus.
As stated in Lenstip's review that must hit Zeiss hard, no longer the best and in so short a space of time.
Who would have "thunk" it?
