  • PositiveThe Sigma lens combines high optical performance with a very fast autofocus system as well as first-class workmanship. The focal length of 65 millimetres is unusual but appealing.
  • NegativeThe elaborate construction and high-quality materials make for a somewhat heavy weight of the Sigma 65mm F2. The detent of the aperture ring cannot be switched off, which can be annoying when filming videos.

The Sigma 65mm F2 DG DN | Contemporary convinces with its image performance with the high resolution, which it combines with a very nice bokeh in photography with open aperture. In view of this performance and the high-quality workmanship as well as the pleasing scope of delivery (including a magnetic metal protective cover), the price of 699 euros is more than fair.

... At f/4, resolution and contrast increase across the entire image field. At f/5.6 the edge drop drops to a minimum, but there is now 100 LP missing in the centre of the image compared to the measurement at f/4. This Sigma also does not achieve absolute top resolution values, but all three apertures are at a similar very good level up to the edges - recommended.
