Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG DN Art (Sony E)
The 35mm f/1.4 DG DN from Sigma is an Art-series prime characterized by its advanced and updated optical design, sleek profile, and bright design. The f/1.4 maximum aperture enables working in low-light conditions and also provides increased control over the depth of field for achieving shallow depth-of-field effects. The optical layout incorporates two SLD Special-Low Dispersions, one ELD Extra-Low Dispersion, and one FLD Low Dispersion element. It also incorporates two aspherical elements and high refractive index elements to achieve a notable degree of clarity and sharpness with well-controlled distortion and aberrations. 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. The wide-angle lens is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 52.5mm equivalent focal length. A Super Mu
