Bundle - Sigma - 50mm f/1.2 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E, with 72mm Filter Kit, Soft Lens Case, Lens Cleaner, Lens Cap Tether

Highest descriptive power to take advantage of F1.2 brightness he Sigma 50mm F1.2 DG DN | Art has been designed with an emphasis on high resolution from the maximum aperture to the full focus range and large, beautiful bokeh expression. The contrast between the sharpness of the focus surface and the melting bokeh effect creates a three-dimensional effect thanks to its F1.2 aperture. In addition, the 13-blade diaphragm allows for beautiful bokeh expressions. Focus breathing is also well-suppressed that the F1.2 rendering can be fully utilized in video recording. Brightness of F1.2 maximum aperture and high resolution from minimum to infinity focusThe latest optical design achieves high resolving power with each aberration thoroughly suppressed from the maximum aperture. The lens is capable of rendering details without color bleeding in any situation. In addition, the incorporated floating focus is advantageous in improving short-range performance, ensuring a stable, high-level image quality throughout the entire range from the minimum focusing distance to infinity. Rich and beautiful bokeh without color bleeding By correcting spherical aberration, sagittal coma flare, axial chromatic aberration, and other aberrations, the lens delivers natural bokeh images that blur smoothly and without color bleeding from the focal plane. Double-line bokeh is also suppressed, allowing users to take advantage of the mellow bokeh effect in their expression. Rounded diaphragm with 13 blades The lens incorporates Sigma's first 13-blade diaphragm, which maintains a circular shape even when stopped down from the maximum aperture. The surface accuracy of the aspherical lens has been enhanced to the utmost to enable smooth and beautiful round bokeh expressions. Designed to minimize focus breathingOptimization of the focus group arrangement and aspherical shape significantly suppresses focus breathing. The change in angle of view due to focus shift is minimized, creating a natural-looking focus shift when recording video. Designed to minimize flare and ghosting Flare and ghosting, which reduce image quality, are addressed under all conditions of incident light, based on the most advanced simulation technology. High backlight resistance enables clear and sharp images under any lighting conditions. Lightest weight lens body in its class, suitable for a wide range of applicationsBy uncompromisingly pursuing high optical performance and portability, which are inherently contradictory, the highest level of performance has been condensed into the lightest lens body in its class. The Sigma 50mm F1.2 DG DN | Art can be used not only in limited situations and applications, but in all kinds of shooting environments. Dual HLA incorporating a new system A new system was developed that significantly reduces the volume while maintaining the same thrust of the HLA, which is characterized by its high driving accuracy and quietness, and is featured in each of the two focus groups. This technological innovation has realized both high-speed autofocus and a compact lens body. New smaller and lighter HLA design By precisely controlling the configuration of multiple magnets, the HLA provides sufficient thrust to quickly move the lens's large-diameter focus elements, while achieving an approximate 25% reduction in unit thickness from the previous HLA design as well as a 44% reduction in total weight. Lens construction and mechanical design stripped down to the absolute minimum Each piece of glass is made as thin as possible while employing glasses with a high refractive index and four aspherical lenses. The high level of production technology at Sigma's only manufacturing base, the Aizu factory, provides the exacting precision necessary for processing these thin glass elements and making this mass production possible. In addition, the floating focus construction ensures high performance while shortening the overall length, resulting in a compact lens. In the mechanical design phase, emphasis was placed on weight reduction. Through the systematic elimination of individual components, Sigma attained the distinction of producing the lightest lens in its class, weighing a mere 740g / 26.1oz. A wealth of functions for professional use and excellent build quality In addition to various functions that support photography, such as the AFL button and an aperture ring, the construction of the lens body itself and its high-quality touch and feel are also pursued.
