Upon discovering that there was a lens specifically designed for crop sensor cameras that provided outstanding photography and video quality, I wanted to put it the test. So one might ask, “Why review a lens 5 years after its initial release”? Well to answer that question I’m relatively new in the field of videography and photography so I’m still discovering what’s out there in the world of camera hardware. This lens is best suited for photography, close-up shots, landscapes, low light photography, and works great for video production. This lens is specifically designed for crop sensor (APS-C sized) cameras and provides a focal length of 18-35mm which equates to 28.8-56mm, which I used for my Canon T7I. Meaning being the first wide angle zoom lens to have a large aperture of 1.8 while providing a fast, continuous, and bright auto-focus as well as producing sharp images. I would say look no further when it comes to the Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM Art lens, which has coined the reputation of being the “First and fastest of its kind”. Whether you’re capturing photos or videos, we all would love to have that one universal lens that we could use that would just about do it all and help us achieve that perfect shot.

Being an owner of a crop sensor camera can be rather challenging at times when it comes to narrowing down the right choice for a lens, we know the slight challenge of using a full frame lenses and having to frame our shot just right.
