Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E
A classic portrait-length lens updated for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless systems,
the Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG DN 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 depth of field for achieving shallow depth of field effects.
The optical layout incorporates a series of low dispersion, aspherical,
and high refractive index elements and its large diameter design achieves a notable degree of clarity and sharpness with well-controlled distortion and aberrations. Also,
a Super Multi-Layer Coating enhances image quality by suppressing
lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color fidelity in strong lighting conditions.
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.
