Overview:

The Sigma 105mm F1.4 DG HSM Art Lens for Leica L stands out as a premium portrait lens, offering unparalleled image quality and artistic potential for both professional and enthusiast photographers. Its hallmark is the ultra-fast f/1.4 aperture, which not only excels in low-light conditions but also provides exquisite background blur, enhancing subject focus in portraits, weddings, and event photography. The lens is part of Sigma's esteemed "Art" series, known for its superior optical performance. This is evident in its advanced design that effectively reduces chromatic aberrations, ensuring sharp, high-resolution images with a signature creamy bokeh. Durability is also a key feature, with a robust, weather-sealed construction that's ready for any outdoor challenge. Additionally, the lens boasts a fast and silent autofocus system, thanks to Sigma's Hyper Sonic Motor, making it adept at capturing fleeting moments with precision. While it is a significant investment in terms of cost and weight, the Sigma 105mm F1.4 DG HSM Art Lens is a solid choice for those seeking exceptional quality and creative control in their photography.

More Details:

• Exceptional Optical Performance: Advanced design minimizes aberrations, delivering sharp, high-resolution images with a creamy bokeh, characteristic of Sigma's "Art" series.
• Bright f/1.4 Aperture: Master low-light conditions and achieve beautiful background blur and sharp subject isolation, ideal for portraits and events.
• Durable, Weather-Sealed Construction: Ready for any outdoor challenge, this lens offers robust dust and splash resistance.
• Fast and Accurate Autofocus: Equipped with Sigma's Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) for quick, silent, and precise focusing, essential in capturing fleeting moments.
• Premium Build Quality: High-grade materials and a solid metal mount ensure durability and confidence in handling.
• Versatile Focal Length: At 105mm, this lens is perfect for creating stunning portraits with a natural perspective and minimal distortion.
• Optimized for Full-Frame Cameras: Designed to bring out the best in full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras, offering a wide angle of view and exceptional image quality.

• Exceptional peripheral brightness - With its large filter diameter of 105mm, this lens delivers a significantly greater volume of peripheral light than other lenses in its class. Minimizing vignetting while offering a beautiful bokeh effect, this lens is ideal for portrait photography.
• Exclusive low-dispersion glass - Most chromatic aberration can be removed by combining a high-refractivity convex lens element with a low-refractivity concave element. Yet residual chromatic aberration known as “secondary spectrum” may still remain. To minimize this secondary spectrum, which can be a serious issue with conventional lenses, SIGMA lenses feature up to three types of exclusive low-dispersion glass offering superior performance: ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion), SLD (Special Low Dispersion) and FLD (“F” Low Dispersion). In particular, FLD glass offers ultra-low dispersion in combination with high transmittance and the anomalous dispersion characteristics of fluorite.
• Designed to minimize flare and ghosting - SIGMA’s Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting to help photographers produce sharp and high-contrast images even in backlit conditions. The included lens hood can be attached to block out extraneous light, which can have a negative effect on rendering performance.
• Fast AF with full-time manual focus - Full-time manual focus function allows the lens to be switched to manual focus simply by rotating the focus ring. *Note: The operation of full-time MF may vary based on mount type.
• High-precision, rugged brass bayonet mount - The brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction. Its treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to the exceptional durability of the lens.
• Rounded diaphragm - The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image.
