For an easier later search I have re-posted the 24mm f2.8 test here, including some new crops from the field (about 10 mm image height).
100% crops from 24 MP Sony A7II FF JPGs, as usual.

100% crops from the corners first:

Sigma is fantastic. Too bad it's hard to find a well-centered copy, allegedly. I've only tried two, both decentered, which is a shame.

Excellent test. Yes Sigma very good lens and an ordeal to find a good copy.

thank you Steve, i was going to get a FD black nose 2.8 but i might have to change my mind; anyway, i am curious how these lenses deal on infinity, which is where they were meant to shoot most of the times

I've not much experience with Sigma lenses - and I wasn't aware of these problems. The two copies I have (a "Minolta MD MF" plus he Af version with Minolta AF mount) both are surprisingly good.

These quick test shown above were shot at a distance of 5m. I don't think the results at infinity will differe a lot ... but I can compare the FD 2.8/24mm and the Sigma, at infinity, tomorrow. No time for all ...
