Sigma 105MM F2.8 DG DN Art Lens (Sony E Mount)

Optical excellence with close-focusing capabilitiesthe Sony E-mount 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lensfrom Sigmais a short-telephoto prime optimized for macro use. With a minimum focusing distance of 11.6"and a 5.5" working distancethis lens offers a life-size1:1 reproduction ratio for accurate rendering of close-up subjects. Its optical design incorporates one SLD elementwhich also helps to realize high clarity and color accuracy by suppressing various aberrations and color fringing. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been appliedwhich controls flare and ghosting for greater contrast.

Benefitting handlingthis lens sports a Hyper-Sonic Motor for quick and quiet AF performance and intuitive full-time manual focus control. A focus limiter switch also helps to boost focusing speed and precisionand there is also a customizable AFL button and dedicated focus mode switch. Additionallythe lens features a nine-blade rounded diaphragm for smooth bokeh quality and the lens housing is also weather-sealed to suit working in inclement conditions.

• As part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision seriesthis lens is designed to achieve truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and artistic applications.

• Short-telephoto prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 157.5mm equivalent focal length.

• One Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element markedly reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color accuracy.

• A Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imageryeven in backlit conditions.

• True macro design affords a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with an 11.6" minimum focusing distanceand a 5.5" minimum working distanceto suit working with close-up subjects.

• The integrated HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) realizes quick and quiet autofocus performancewhich is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance. The HSM also permits full-time manual focus control simply by rotating the focus ring at any time.

• Focus limiter switch can be used to constrain the focusing range within three zones for fastermore responsive performance: 11.6" to 1.6'1.6' to infinityand 11.6" to infinity.

• Manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for smoothsilent aperture switching to benefit video applications. Additionallya dedicated aperture ring lock switch can also be employed to prevent accidental shifting of the aperture setting.

• Built-in Autofocus-Lock (AFL) button which can be assigned additional functions widens the range of operations available on the lens.

• Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.

• Weather-resistant construction with a brass bayonet that affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.
