My Background
I shoot with a Canon 7d and prime lens only(35mm 1.4, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.8). I have had this lens for 2 months. Since then I have used this lens for prom shoots, portraits, indoor volleyball games, Landscape, and a lot of day and night street photography.
Thoughts
This lens is everything I needed from a 35mm. I decided I needed, not wanted(for all you fellow gear lusters out their) this lens because I started to feel limitations of my 50mm on my 7D. Just in case you did not know, 7D is a 1.6x crop sensor camera. On this camera, 50mm = 80mm and 35mm = 56mm focal length. I realized that I needed to get closer to my subject in my my street photography and it was impossible with my 50mm. There truly is a substantial difference in the feel of street photography pictures when you're farther away from your subject. Sigmas 35mm is stunning. Jaw dropping sharp wide open. The focus is fast and accurate. Construction of this lens looks beautiful and professional. This lens does not have weather sealing, but I did not need it. Balanced well on a 7D and felt commanding on a rebel body.
In Use
It was great for group prom shots, wide enough to get everyone in the shot and still created smooth bokeh for great isolation. Did a fantastic job in portrait shots for added context. I had a photo shoot for a family with children and it was fast enough to capture them running around. Very useful for full court shots with the team and fast enough to capture the quick movements in the game. Beautiful sublime color rendition in landscapes. And finally, it has made all the difference in the quality of my street shots. This lens has delivered and has be come my standard lens.
Conclusion
This lens is fantastic. Everything about it is so desirable for just about any photographer. I am glad I added this to my collection as it will still be a great investment when I move to a full frame. Get out and shoot! I hope this review was helped. Fell free to ask any questions

Our True Flagship
The Sigma 35mm 1.4 DG HSM is a state of the art lens designed for full frame cameras but can also be used with APS-C sensors as well. The first addition to the Art category in Sigma’s Global Vision, the 35mm 1.4 DG HSM includes new features based around a unique lens concept and design. The 35mm is a staple focal length in the world of photography, and paired with Sigma technology, this lens can take artistic expression to the next level. The lens is equipped with technology including a Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM), floating internal focusing system, SLD and FLD Glass elements. The HSM ensures quiet, high speed, accurate autofocusing while the floating focusing system allows for superior optical performance with subjects at a closer shooting distance.

The large 1.4 aperture make it ideal in low light and the lens is compatible with the Sigma USB dock and Optimization Pro software to adjust and fine tune focusing parameters. The Sigma 35mm 1.4 DG HSM is a must have for any camera bag.

Hesitant Purchase - Gamble
I have had previous Sigma lenses (50 f/1.4, 10-22) that I have used on a Canon 7D. Both lenses were never sharp and seemed to always have questionable focus. The 50mm works great on my old Canon 1D Mkii though, tack sharp every time, which tells me that Sigma has had problems with the Canon focus algorithms. Even with micro focus adjustment my previous experiences made me very leery, especially given that I had rented the Canon 35mm f/1.4 and had great shots and consistently sharp auto focus.When the lens arrived it came with the traditional black sigma padded case, which in my opinion is better and more useful that the Canon L series leather pouch. When the lens was opened I was surprised at the feel of the lens, all metal, heavy and focus was smooth and had a quality feel to it. My older Sigma's felt fine but not the same quality as canon L series.I am now shooting with a Canon 5D Mkiii, so I took this lens out for some shots. I hear some people complain about vignetting when shooting fully open. There is some but nothing that is terrible or any worse than what I experienced with the Canon 35 L. Images were sharp, focus was consistent and shot fully open gave some great bokeh for a 35mm focal length. I will admit that it seemed the focus was a hair slower than the Canon 35L but nothing that was a deal breaker for me.Overall I am very pleased and saving 400 dollars from the Canon version what can I really complain about?

Tiene una construcción robusta pero elegante. Tiene un peso considerable, por lo que no es un objetivo ligero, y menos si lo vas a usar con adaptadores. Pero ofrece una calidad fotográfica excepcional, y no tiene nada que envidiar a objetivos con precios más elevados.
Su apertura de 1.4 hace que trabajar en proyectos nocturnos o de poca luz, de resultados bastante resolutivos, y si lo sacamos en proyectos diurnos ofrece unos tonos de color muy bonitos y una calidad excepcional.
Obviamente tras varios años de uso, recomiendo su compra sin lugar a dudas.
