Designed with an emphasis on sophisticated optical performance and enormous expressive power, SIGMA?s Art line delivers high-level artistic quality. The latest addition to the F1.4 series, which has become synonymous with the Art line, is the SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG DN | Art, a large aperture standard lens designed exclusively for Mirrorless Fullframe cameras.

While retaining the original concept of the SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art, which has defined the reputation of the Art F1.4 series, SIGMA has re-examined from the outset what is truly important in a standard lens used in a wide range of shooting situations.

By incorporating all the latest technologies, this lens has achieved a high degree of compatibility between the optimum size and high-speed AF required for today?s mirrorless systems, while maintaining the highest quality optical performance. In addition to the brilliance of the large F1.4 aperture and the large, beautiful bokeh effect, various aberrations have been optimally balanced in the quest for uniform, balanced image quality across the entire image area, from the center to the edges of the frame.

The result is the new "Art F1.4 50mm", a lens that is truly versatile in terms of expressive performance, maneuverability and usability, and which is designed to help photographers create their best work.

The "Art F1.4" Standard with uncompromising optical performance

Based on the latest optical design technology, the lens incorporates 14 elements in 11 groups, with 3 aspherical lenses and 1 SLD glass element.

The lens effectively suppresses various aberrations such as astigmatism and field curvature, which cannot be corrected in-camera. Despite the large aperture of F1.4, image formation performance at the periphery of the image has been pursued and sagittal coma flare has been minimized to the extent that the lens can withstand even challenging night and star scenes, with demanding images from intense light sources even at its maximum aperture.

In addition to clear image quality without color blur across the entire image circle, the great, natural beauty of F1.4 bokeh can be fully utilized in photography

High-speed AF for agile, comfortable shooting

The SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG DN | Art is the first in the Art line exclusively designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras to adopt the "HLA" (Highresponse Linear Actuator) linear motor.

In addition, by using a single double-sided aspherical lens as the focusing element, the lens offers fast, quiet focusing and high tracking performance, despite its large aperture. With a maximum aperture of 1.4 and a high-performance AF system, the lens can be used in a variety of situations, including shooting in dark places, shooting moving subjects, snapshots, and even video.

High performance, but slim and compact body

The development of the SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG DN | Art was focused on slimming down the lens barrel, reducing the weight of a focus lens and optimizing the layout of the lens unit, to pursue the "optimum size" for mirrorless systems without compromising the "maximum emphasis on optical performance" concept of SIGMA?s Art line. This lens has managed to achieve both first-class performance and the size required for a lightweight, mobile photographic tool.

Full range of functions and high build quality

The lens body is equipped with a focus mode switch, an aperture ring click switch to turn the click on and off, an aperture ring lock switch to prevent unintentional operation, and an AFL button to assign any camera function.

These features are designed for intuitive operation during shooting. The lens is equipped with a dust- and splash-resistant frame, and the front element of the lens is applied with a water- and oil-repellent coating, making it suitable for a wide range of shooting environments. The lens is compact, lightweight and easy to use, while ensuring a high build quality guaranteed by the reliable processing technology of the Aizu "Made in Japan" factory.
