I've been reviewing hardware and software, devising testing methodology and handed out buying advice for what seems like forever; I'm currently absorbed by computers and gaming hardware, but previously spent many years concentrating on cameras. I've also volunteered with a cat rescue for over 15 years doing adoptions, designing marketing materials, managing volunteers and, of course, photographing cats.

Sigma 85mm F1.4 DG HSM
Five f1.4 prime lenses in Sigma's Art line have just shipped for Sony FE-mount cameras, ready for your Sony A6xx and A7x-series-shooting pleasure.
They are:
- 20mm F1.4 DG HSM, $900
- 24mm F1.4 DG HSM $850

Sigma's Art series lenses -- basically, the company's wide-aperture line -- generally have good build and if not best-in-class optics, a good balance of quality and price. These lenses were announced in the last few months and have been available for preorder, but now you can get them in your paws.
The lenses all incorporate better autofocus, including compatibility with Sony's continuous AF, and faster lens-body connection speed.
