Sigma Art 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM 24mm
The f/2 maximum aperture pairs with a stepping motor and inner focus system for swift, quiet autofocus without extending the 661g barrel. An optical stack of 16 elements in 11 groups suppresses chromatic aberration, and the 77mm filter thread supports common accessories. This lens suits portrait photographers seeking a bright wide-angle prime with a 72.8 score for subject sharpness, but it's not ideal for travel.
