OVERVIEW

The Sigma AF 35mm f/1.2 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E is a large-diameter prime lens from Sigma's new full-frame mirrorless lens series, & is Sigma's first prime lens that features a bright f/1.2 maximum aperture. The AF 35mm f/1.2 delivers excellent image quality, while its f/1.2 aperture assists in achieving a shallow depth of field, with extremely selective focus effects. Its bright aperture also makes it suitable for working in difficult lighting conditions. Spherical aberrations & distortion are controlled via low dispersion & aspherical elements, which increases color accuracy, as well as sharpness.

The AF 35mm f/1.2 features a large Hyper Sonic Motor, which compliments its imaging capabilities by providing high-speed & accurate autofocusing. Full-time manual focus override is featured, while the HSM allows for quiet autofocus performance, which is helpful when shooting video. The aperture ring's de-click switch is able to prevent unwanted noise from being captured when shooting video with sound, while the autofocus-lock (AFL) button can be custom-set to widen your range of functions that are available on the lens. Its rounded 11-blade diaphragm plays an important role in the pleasing bokeh effects.

Superb 35mm f1.2 ART for E-mount

Reviewed on Sunday, August 18, 2019

By: AlexP

Rated 5.0 out of 5 stars.

The new 35mm ART 1.2 for Sony mirrorless cameras is sharp across the frame even shooting wide open (@ 1.2). It is a bit larger and heavier than the Sony Zeiss Distagon 35 (also a great lens), but this is known to be consistent with the Sigma ART line. The lens also has features found in Sony's GM line like the AFL button which is customizable. The autofocus speed feels like Sony's native lenses. I'm very happy with this lens, as well as UniquePhoto's quick delivery service.

Elements / Groups: The individual pieces of glass that form the overall optical construction. Most lenses have between four and eleven elements to bend the light rays to ensure a perfectly formed image appears on the light sensitive surface, such as a film or CCD. The elements are arranged in groups and may be seen in specification sheets as, for example, 6 elements in 4 groups. That configuration may have two single elements and the other four grouped in pairs. View All Attribute Definitions
