Introducing the Sigma 50mm f/1.2 DG DN Art Lens: a masterpiece of optical engineering that sets a new standard for 50mm prime lenses. With its lightweight design, exceptional brightness, and precision, this lens is crafted for photographers who demand excellence in every shot.
At the heart of this lens lies Sigma's innovative dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor system, providing you with quiet, high-speed autofocus performance. This advanced focusing mechanism also contributes to the lens's compact and lightweight build, making it the lightest in its class. The lens's classic 50mm focal length, combined with an ultra-wide f/1.2 aperture, opens up a world of creative possibilities, allowing you to capture everything from detailed portraits to stunning landscapes with ease.
Designed for the creative professional, the Sigma 50mm f/1.2 features physical function buttons and switches that enhance usability and reliability in the field. Its super multilayer coating reduces ghosting and boosts contrast, ensuring your images are clear and vibrant.
The lens's bokeh is nothing short of magical. Its f/1.2 aperture produces rich, smooth bokeh that brings your subjects to life against beautifully blurred backgrounds. This is further enhanced by a rounded 13-blade diaphragm—a first for Sigma—ensuring that out-of-focus areas are rendered with a pleasing, circular bokeh at all aperture settings.
Built to withstand the rigors of professional use, the Sigma 50mm f/1.2 boasts a durable design with dust- and splash-resistance. The front element features a water and oil-repellent coating, offering additional protection against the elements. The lens also includes a customizable AFL button, a lockable aperture ring with click/de-click options, and is compatible with AF Assist functions on compatible E-mount cameras.
Key Features:
- Lens construction of 17 elements in 12 groups, incorporating high refractive index glass and four aspherical elements to achieve outstanding clarity and sharpness.
- Lightweight at just 1.6 lb, making it an ideal companion for both studio and fieldwork.
- Includes a petal lens hood with a locking mechanism, ensuring it stays securely in place during use.
The Sigma 50mm f/1.2 DG DN Art Lens is not just a lens but an invitation to explore your creativity. Whether you're shooting in low light, seeking to achieve beautiful bokeh, or simply need a reliable lens for everyday use, this lens promises performance and quality that professionals can rely on.
