Crispy and Creamy all at the same time.

What else can I say to what already hasn't been said about Sigma's 56mm prime, its Fast, Super Sharp with Creamy Bokeh! Great for portrait, street and car photography. Get it already!

Good beginner lens for me

Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2024

I am still learning a lot about photography. I used this was an a6700, and it works wonderfully, but sometimes there is a weird delay between when I press the capture button and when it takes the photo. This only seems to happen if I am taking a lot of photos at once. I'm not sure if it's the lens or the camera, but my second lens (Sony brand) doesn't do this.

The photos and the autofocus work pretty well. At my level, I have no complaints. It also works pretty well with video. The a6700 has good IBIS, so the fact that the lens doesn't is okay. I really like the Bokeh effect in both video and pictures with this lens. This seems like a great starter lens, at least for me. I plan to get another one in this series so that I can be a bit closer when taking portraits.

Third in the Trifecta

Reviewed in the United States on January 19, 2020

Sharp as a tack! No image stabilization and shaky as a San Andreas earthquake when shooting video, but capable of some of the sharpest still photographs you can take on the Sony e-mount system.

If you are familiar with the Sony mirrorless cameras, you probably know that Sigma makes the sharpest lenses-- much higher-quality glass than Sony makes. the lens is not only take great photographs, but they feel like real lenses, with metal and heafty glass.

The Sigma 16mm, 30mm, and 56mm make up a nearly perfect trifecta of prime lenses for the Sony e-mount cameras. Personally and professionally, I mainly shoot video as opposed to stills. I didn't like the 30mm because of its loud auto-focus and lack of stabilization, but the 16mm has a fairly quiet autofocus and no need for stabilization because of the wide angle, and the 56 mm also has very quiet autofocus, and I simply use it on a tripod for video work. I use a Sony 35mm prime for video.

Anyway, this Sigma 56mm is just about the perfect lens for portrait work and nice, tight video shots. I love it, and I think you will too.

A poetic lens

Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2021

Really a fine lens. Excellent sharpness and focuses fast and precisely. I use it generally at f/2 or under for both portraits and street photography and love the bokeh, compression, and sharpness. This focal length can be challenging but when you get the hang of it your shots become more "poetic." Also have the Sigma 30mm DC DN and found it to be less satisfying than the 56mm in terms of overall image quality.
