  • UstasFritZZZ

    At one time I wanted to buy the first version, but I could not find it anywhere in Ukraine. I had to buy Sigma 85 Art and it was my best decision in recent years, Sigma is top!

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Sigma 85 / 1.4 art was not originally made for mirrorless

      • UstasFritZZZ

        I know, that's why it's so huge under Sony E, well, now a new version has come out, already purely under the BZK. But I have exactly the first version and do not care about its dimensions - it is beautiful)

  • Igor

    Arkady, why wasn’t 85 under the macro crop included in the list?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      And just take a good look

      • Victor

        Probably, 85dx could add to the list of “non-classic 85k”)

        • Arkady Shapoval

          it is both macro and dark, it does not fit the requirements too much
