For as much trouble as it has been for Canon users to get the new Sigma 50mm f/1.4 in stock, Nikonians have had it worse. Partly due to the fact that the Nikon version of the lens was released some time after the Canon version, and partly due to intense demand.
Regardless, Nikonians, now is your time to rejoice. Sigma’s new 50mm F/1.4 Art is finally available and in stock at B&H. But, as noted above, demand is extremely high and stock is relatively small, so if you want one, it would be advisable to jump on it quickly.
You can find the Nikon F mount version of the Sigma 50mm F/1.4G right here on B&H.

It is a great lens, but I am not willing to pay one Thousand dollars more since I have already the Nikon 50mm F1.4 lens and it Works beautifully for me.
I want it, but LOVE the look of my Nikon 50 1.4 D. I use it exclusively for all my newborn shoots. I don’t know if I can part with it. Will have to rent one and see.
Do you shoot that nikon 50mm at f1.4 Cy?
Almost always, 1.4 – 2.0 for all my newborn work. Lots of vignette, but I love it.
