Sigma Art 28mm f/1.4 DG HSM 28mm

60 Budget Score
28mm 16 Nikon F Weather Sealed
Why we recommend this

Combining an f/1.4 maximum aperture with 17 elements—including 3 aspherical and 5 ED glass—the lens delivers sharp, edge-to-edge clarity and strong contrast. Its weather-sealed barrel and HSM autofocus provide reliable, quiet performance in dusty or damp environments. It's best for landscape and street photographers who routinely shoot wide-open in low light and need a rugged, fast 28mm prime.

Sigma EX DG 8mm f/3.5 EX DG Circular Fisheye 8mm

25.5 Budget Score
8mm 22 Nikon F
Why we recommend this

Its 8mm focal length captures a full 180-degree circular image on full-frame sensors, with an f/3.5 aperture and one ED element maintaining sharpness across an 11-element, 6-group optical design. Close focusing to 5.3 inches yields a 1:4.6 magnification for dramatic near-subject distortion, while the rear gelatin filter holder and Super Multi-Layer coating enhance creative control and contrast. It’s best for photographers seeking extreme barrel distortion and exaggerated perspectives for creative compositions, as its low 24.6 portrait score confirms it’s ill-suited for conventional subjects.
