SIGMA 85mm F1.4 DG DN Art L Mount Lens

SIGMA 85mm F1.4 DG DN Art L Mount Lens

The first ever F1.4 DG DN Art lens is here, marking a new chapter in SIGMA’s mirrorless journey.

This stunning, full-frame prime, designed from the ground up specifically for mirrorless cameras, offers unparalleled optical performance, a compact and lightweight body, robust build quality and high-speed AF.

A remarkable triumph of optical design and engineering, it promises to be a game-changer for E-mount and L-Mount photographers

Despite having a remarkably small and lightweight body for such a wide - aperture optic, the 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art is packed with a range of functionalities including a dust-and splash- proof barrel, a lockable and de-clickable iris ring and a customisable AFL button. The lens also comes with a lockable lens hood.

Class-leading optical performance

An 85mm focal length and F1.4 aperture are specifications almost synonymous with a professional portrait lens.
As with all Art line lenses, SIGMA has pursued the highest possible optical performance and employed the latest design and production technologies at SIGMA’s factory at Aizu, Japan.

The optical design of the lens is completely different to the existing 85mm F1.4 DG lens in SIGMA’s current line-up.In addition to five SLD elements and one aspherical element, the 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art has incorporated the latest high-refractive-index glass, which works to correct aberrations that cannot be effectively handled by in-camera correction.

With a particular emphasis given to the elimination of axial chromatic aberration, users will enjoy sharp images with no colour bleeding all the way up to the maximum aperture of F1.4.

The high resolving power across the entire image from the cent re to the edges of the frame ensures exceptional sharpness of the in-focus area, and coupled with
a very shallow depth-of-field it’s easy to separate the subject from the background for captivating, high-impact portraits.

Exceptionally lightweight and Compact

The 85mm F1.4 DG DN | Art weighs in at 630g with a filter size of 77mm and a body length of 94.1mm, making it far smaller and lighter than SIGMA’s original 85mm F1.4
Art lens, which weighs 1215g*. Designed exclusively for mirrorless cameras, it breaks the usual 85mm F1.4 mould by combining a very large lens diameter, superb
optical performance and a lightweight and compact body.

The AF system employs a stepping motor that is optimised for both phase detect and contrast AF. Not only does this provide a smooth shooting experience only possible
on a mirrorless camera (such as face/eye AF), but it has reduced the size of the lens body thanks to a much smaller focus element.

By making the most of in-camera aberration correction functionalities, SIGMA was able to concentrate on the correction of aberrations that could only be eliminated effectively by the lens’optics, which further contributed to making the lens smaller.

With such a small and lightweight body, users can now take out an ultra-wide aperture 85mm lens for day to day shooting, or carry it around all day at a wedding, without worrying about being weighed down.
