Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens (Sony E)

Designed with exceptional optics and the ability to focus closely, the Sony E-mount 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens from Sigma is a short-telephoto prime lens perfect for macro photography. It boasts a close focusing distance of 29.5cm and a working distance of 14cm, allowing for 1:1 life-size reproduction of subjects. The lens's SLD element minimizes aberrations and color fringing, while the Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting for enhanced contrast.

This lens is equipped with a Hyper-Sonic Motor, providing fast and silent autofocus performance. It also offers a focus limiter switch for improved speed and accuracy, as well as a customizable AFL button and a dedicated focus mode switch. The nine-blade rounded diaphragm adds a touch of smoothness to the bokeh quality, and the lens is weather-sealed for use in various conditions.

Additional Features

• As part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this 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 imagery, even in backlit conditions.
• True macro design affords a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with a 30cm minimum focusing distance, and a 14cm minimum working distance, to suit working with close-up subjects.
• The integrated HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) realizes quick and quiet autofocus performance, which 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 faster, more responsive performance: 30cm to 50cm, 50cm to infinity, and 30cm to infinity.
• Manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications. Additionally, a 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.
