Expanded Sigma 56mm f1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens Key Features:

Optical Structure

To build faith in a brand, you must deliver the expected results, and Sigma has set a benchmark for incredibly high-quality. Following this trajectory, the Sigma 56mm f1.4 AF DC DN Contemporary Lens incorporates ten premium lens elements into six groups. This includes one Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element for reducing colour fringing and two aspherical elements for limiting distortion. The result is more clarity, greater colour accuracy and much sharper rendering.

Reducing glare and ghosting was a top priority for Sigma. They have addressed this with excellent results meaning that your photos will not be affected by incidental light in the scene you are trying to capture. They have also added several multi-layer coatings that help the reduction and provides the user with sharper and higher-contrasted images.

Aperture Control

Another aspect of this lens contributing to its exceptional image quality and overall performance is its wide, bright and fast maximum f1.4 aperture. This wide aperture allows this lens to excel in low-light conditions and offers increased control of depth of field for better subject-background separation. Furthermore, this aperture can produce beautiful bokeh, easily rivalling Sigma's Art series lenses.

Super Smooth Autofocus

Autofocus plays its part in this lens’ overall performance. The lens uses an advanced set of stepping motors for smooth and near-silent autofocus. Thanks to this lens’ AF mechanism, this lens is a perfect option for photography and videography.
