The optical formula is made up of 13 elements in 10 groups, including 3 SLD glass elements and 2 aspherical lenses, to achieve sharp and clear images. The lens offers excellent resolving power at maximum aperture. In addition, its large F1.4 aperture allows for beautiful bokeh effects. The compact, palm-sized lens lets you take advantage of the descriptive power of mirrorless cameras. Carefully crafted solutions against flare and incident light enable clear shots, even in backlit environments.
Compact lens optimized for APS-C mirrorless cameras
To take advantage of the mobility of APS-C mirrorless cameras, the lens is compact and lightweight, weighing 340g*, length 76.9mm* and filter diameter 52mm. At the same time, the quality of the lens body itself has not been compromised. High-precision machining technology from SIGMA's sole manufacturing facility in Aizu, Japan enables the lens to achieve the ideal balance between excellent optical performance based on the latest optical and mechanical designs and compactness. The auto focus drive system uses a quiet, high-speed stepper motor. A latest generation algorithm allows fast focusing for easy shots.
Supports switching between linear and non-linear focus ring settings (for L-Mount only)
For L-Mount cameras, it is possible to switch to "linear focus", in which the focus moves a fixed distance depending on the angle of rotation of the focus ring. point.
*Only for L-Mount compatible devices.
