Sigma's Art range of high-performance, super-sharp optics, designed to maximize the high-resolution sensor potential of DSLRs such as the D800, have gained a formidable reputation for quality and value. The Sigma 12-24mm f/4 A isn't quite on par with the...
Excellent image quality on highresolution camera body, good value
Fairly heavy, no filter slot, modest wideangle distortion, PRICE: $1,599
The universe of wide-angle zoom lenses is populated by a few prominent, and pricey, competitors, among them Canon's $2,699 EF 11-24mm f/4 and Nikon's $1,900 14-24mm f/2.8. Against these options, the new Art lens is an attractive alternative. Tamron's 15-3...

Very good quality over 36Mp full-frame, even wide open, Constant f/4.0 focal ratio, Very low distortion for such a wide-angle lens, Weather sealing, Quiet and fast AF operation
100% more expensive than predecessor, Very large and heavy, No filter thread, Focusing had to be adjusted with USB-dock
Sigma's new 12-24/4.0 zoom is a very competent lens: Its optical performance is up there with the reference 15-30mm zoom from Tamron, it has only minor distortions and finally offers a constant f4.0 focal ratio - although f2.8 would have been even nicer...
