Get your biceps into shape and work on your ability to nail critical focus, because a new portrait offering from Sigma awaits you. As we've already demonstrated from our full technical review of this incredible lens, the Sigma 135mm f/1.8 Art is indeed quite sharp and the lab results are definitely something to write the folks back home about.

And what about the real world?

Our friends at Sigma let us hang on to our 135mm f/1.8 Art sample for a few precious days longer, a Nikon F-mount version, so we paired it up with our Nikon D800E and headed out into the great wide open. And because pictures speak louder than words, we're going to try and not talk too much and just let the images do most of the talking on this one.
