A few of those 1.4 shots looked a smidge front focused 3. These are also JPG sooc set to low sharpening: I have to wait for my copy... I need raw... I need my test subjects... I need real world use  Otherwise it's the best photos thus far.Those 1.4 shots ARE front focused. When a Sigma nails focus it looks completely different.

And 5D3 jpg SOOC with sharpness at 0 means there is ALOT left to be desired.

Very impressive http://blog.robertscamera.com …/sigma-85f1-4-art-review/ no dude... look at those two shots with the trees in the background... leaves are butter smooth. I want to see how this thing handles leaves that are backlight shot at 1.4 blurness...
