Normally here we would have a test to see if you could tell the difference, but given how the Sigma is so clearly better in every way, it would be pointless. Here are a few more 100% crops so you can see for yourself… Sigma 50mm F/1.4 DG HSM Art, Canon 6D, ISO 100, F/2.8, 1/250thĬanon 50mm F/1.8, Canon 6D, ISO 100, F/2.8, 1/250th These lenses are closer at F/2.8, but the Sigma is still much sharper. Looking at the 100% crops below and you will see that the Sigma is clean and sharp, while the Canon is hazy and barely useable. Obviously there is some difference here due to the Sigma being wide open at F/1.4 and the Canon being wide open at F/1.8. You can click on the images to view a larger size (1200px wide), these RAW files will also be available for download at the end of the article. There is literally not one thing about the Canon 50mm F/1.8 that I find to be superior to the Sigma. It is sharper, has less distortion, and less CA. The Sigma is again better than the 50mm F/1.8. It balances well on both full frame and crop bodies, and feels solid in the hands. It has a quick and snappy, but most of all silent, AF system that is a accurate as it is quiet. The Sigma, on the other hand, handles beautifully. It’s AF is loud and screechy, and as mentioned above, the manual focus is a real pain. Put simply, the Canon 50mm F/1.8 is sort of a clunker. You can really see the price difference of $850 between these lenses in their build quality. The Sigma, on the other hand, provides an ideal manual focus experience with a smooth motion and good feel. The focus ring on the Canon leaves a lot to be desired, and makes manual focus a pain. Where the Canon is almost all plastic, the Sigma is almost all metal. Not only is it larger, it has a solid build. Size & Build Quality ComparisonĪs you can see from the image above, the Sigma is significantly larger than the Canon 50mm F/1.8. RAW files will be provided for download at the end of the article so you can download and compare on your own screen for anything I may have not compared directly in this post. For those of you thinking about upgrading, this comparison will show you why this new Sigma should be at the top of your list.ĭisclaimer: This is not meant to be a comprehensive review for either lens, just a quick comparison and overview of how the two lenses compare to one another. I get asked all the time about the Canon 50mm F/1.8 vs the Canon F/1.4 or F/1.2 ( Be sure to check out our Canon Lens Wars for an in-depth look at how these three stack up), so today, I wanted to take the opportunity to show you exactly how much better of an image you will get with a higher quality 50mm lens. But still, there is a reason for the comparison you are about to see/read. The Sigma is better in every aspect with the only exception being the cost. I am just going to come out and say it, there is no comparing the Sigma 50mm F/1.4 DG HSM Art to the Canon 50mm F/1.8.
