PRO Nikon 50 1.4 G:
- Sealing against dirt and moisture
- Small, light and compact
- Excellent sharpness from f / 2.8
CONTRA Nikon 50 1.4 G:
- Very soft at f / 1.4 - here, the Sigma is vastly superior.
- Plenty of chromatic aberrations
- Not quite as beautiful bokeh
Although the Sigma weighs just 900g, I decided nevertheless to this and against the Nikon 50 1.4. Unfortunately, the optical performance of the double-Gaussian structure has its weaknesses at maximum aperture and is no longer appropriate now with high-resolution cameras such as the D800.
