The 56mm f/1.4 DC DN is a sleek portrait-length prime lens from Sigma's Contemporary series. It is designed for APS-C-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. The lens features a bright f/1.4 maximum aperture, ideal for low-light conditions. It also provides improved control over depth of field, making it easier to isolate subjects and create selective focus effects.
The optical design includes two aspherical elements and one SLD element. These elements reduce spherical and chromatic aberrations, resulting in greater sharpness and clarity. A Super Multi-Layer Coating suppresses flare and ghosting, ensuring high contrast and color accuracy, even in challenging lighting conditions.
The stepping AF motor ensures fast, precise, and near-silent autofocus, making the lens suitable for both photo and video applications.
