Sigma And The Art Of Making Fine Lenses

Sigma Art Lenses In Sony FE Mount

SO FAR, 11 of Sigma’s much-awarded and much-acclaimed Art series lenses are now available in the full-frame version of Sony E-mount. Sigma’s Art line lenses boast a very high level of quality and performance – both physically and optically – which has seen them compared favourably with products from both Leica and Zeiss.

The 11 Art line primes in the FE mount cover 14mm to 135mm. Importantly, Sigma has obtained a licensing agreement with Sony which means the E-mount Art lenses are fully compatible with all the A7 and A9 series full-frame mirrorless cameras, including the ‘Fast Hybrid AF’ continuous autofocusing mode, the in-body image stabilisation, and in-camera lens corrections – for peripheral illumination (vignetting), chromatic aberrations and distortion.

Available at selected camera retailers around Australia, the E-mount Art line lenses are the 14mm f1.8 DG HSM, 20mm f1.4 DG HSM, 24mm f1.4 DG HSM, 28mm f1.4 DG HSM, 35mm f1.4 DG HSM, 40mm f1.4 DG HSM, 50mm f1.4 DG HSM, 70mm f2.8 DG Macro, 85mm f1.4
