SIGMA 35MM F/1.4 DG DN Art Lens for L-Mount

First wide-angle AF lens with F1.2 maximum aperture for the full-frame Leica L-mount. This lens enables a creation of artwork with astounding resolution and large bokeh effects, such as portraits that make use of a shallow depth of field. It brings the development concept of the Art line “pursuit of ultimate image quality” to the next level. While utilizing optical correction function inside the camera, aberrations that are difficult to post-process are thoroughly corrected thanks to the optical design and it thereby enhances resolution.

Balancing the optics is a refined exterior design, which features a physical aperture ring, which can be de-clicked or locked, along with a dedicated focus mode switch and AFL button for intuitive and tactile control. For autofocus, a stepping motor is used that maintains a lightweight and compact design while promoting fast and near silent focusing performance for both stills and video applications. Additionally, the lens features an 11-blade rounded diaphragm for smooth bokeh quality and the lens housing is also weather-sealed to suit working in inclement conditions.

• As part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and artistic applications.
• Wide-angle lens is designed for full-frame Leica L-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 52.5mm equivalent focal length.
• Bright f/1.4 maximum aperture is particularly well-suited for working in available light conditions and provides extensive control over depth of field for isolating subject matter with selective focus.
• A Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.
• Integrated stepping motor realizes quick and quiet autofocus, which is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance.
• Manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications.
• Additionally, a dedicated aperture ring lock switch can also be employed to prevent accidental shifting of the aperture setting.
• Built-in Autofocus-Lock (AFL) button which can be assigned additional functions widens the range of operations available on the lens.
• Rounded eleven-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
• Weather-resistant construction with a brass bayonet that affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.
