With a bright F1.2 aperture, the SIGMA Art line's highest level of imaging power, yet the lightest in its class. Mount: Leica Camera L-Mount standard. Focal length: 50mm. Maximum aperture: F2.8. Filter diameter: 72mm. Art line / [5012DGDNATL] 5012DGDNATL Released in April 2024
Ultimate imaging power that fully utilizes the F1.2 brightness. Designed with a focus on high resolution from wide open aperture to the entire focus range, and large, beautiful bokeh. The contrast between the sharpness of the focal plane and the melting bokeh creates a three-dimensional effect that is only possible with an F1.2 aperture. What's more, the 13 aperture blades enable beautiful circular bokeh. Focus breathing is also suppressed, allowing you to fully utilize the F1.2 imaging power when shooting video. Bright F1.2 aperture and high resolution from the minimum focus to infinity. The latest optical design thoroughly suppresses aberrations, achieving high resolution even at maximum aperture. It delivers detailed, color-free images in any scene. The floating focus, which is advantageous for improving close-up performance, enables consistent, high-quality image creation across the entire focal length range, from the minimum focus to infinity. Rich, beautiful bokeh without color bleeding. Effective correction of aberrations such as spherical aberration, sagittal coma flare, and axial chromatic aberration ensures smooth, natural bokeh without color bleeding from the focused surface. Double-line bokeh is also suppressed, allowing you to create beautiful, melting bokeh. Circular 13-blade aperture: A first for SIGMA, this lens employs 13 aperture blades. The circularity is maintained even when stopped down from maximum aperture. By maximizing the surface precision of the aspherical lens, smooth, beautiful circular bokeh is achieved. Designed to Reduce Focus Breathing: Optimized focus group placement and aspherical shape significantly reduce focus breathing. Minimal change in angle of view due to focus shifts allows for natural focusing during video capture. Designed to Reduce Flare and Ghosting: Using cutting-edge simulation technology, we've taken measures to address image quality-degrading flare and ghosting under all incident light conditions. High backlight resistance ensures clear, sharp images in any lighting conditions. Lightest Lens Body in Its Class* for Versatility: By uncompromisingly pursuing high optical performance and portability, we've condensed the highest level of performance into the lightest lens body in its class. This F1.2 lens is not limited to specific situations or applications, but can be adapted to any environment. Dual HLA with a New Method: We've developed a new method for significantly reducing volume while maintaining the same thrust, based on the linear motor HLA (High-response Linear Actuator), known for its high drive precision and quietness. This method is used in both focus groups. This technological innovation achieves both high-speed AF shooting and a compact lens body.
Various Functions and Build Quality for Professional Use: In addition to various shooting-support functions such as the AFL button* and aperture ring, the lens body itself is designed with a high-quality construction and operability in mind. It offers functionality and reliability to meet the high demands of professionals, as well as high build quality for long-term, reliable use. *Only compatible cameras are available. The functions that can be assigned vary depending on the camera.
High-quality Build Quality of the Art Line: A Pride in a Tool for Expression: By assembling high-precision parts made from lightweight, strong TSC materials, the lens achieves the high level of rigidity and durability of the Art Line without sacrificing portability, and has a build quality that will ensure long-term, reliable use as a photography tool.
Various Shooting Assist Functions: The AFL button can be assigned to any function. In addition to the aperture ring, it also features an aperture ring lock switch and a click switch that can be used to turn the click on and off.
Dustproof and splash-proof construction* with water-repellent and dirt-resistant coating In addition to the dustproof and splash-proof body, the front of the lens is coated with a water-repellent and dirt-resistant coating, allowing you to shoot with confidence even in harsh outdoor environments. *The construction is dustproof and splash-proof, but it is not waterproof. When using near water, be careful not to get large amounts of water on the lens. If water gets inside the lens, it may cause serious damage that may be beyond repair.
