[QUOTE="Robert Mitchell, post: 105685, member: 11282"] I was never a fan of any of the Nikon 50mm f/1.4 lenses. They just don't perform well wide open and sometimes not until f/2.2 or so just to get acceptable contrast and sharpness. For the short time that I did own the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 I found it to be much better and sharper and the only thing that wasn't quite as good was some of the out of focus rendering. Not quite as smooth as the Nikon but I felt the tradeoff was worthwhile because I could actually shoot the Sigma at f/1.4 or where I really like to be on a 50mm, which is around f/2. [/QUOTE]
