Sigma 35mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens for L-Mount

The Sigma 35mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Leica L-mount is an inherently versatile focal length, offering a sleek wide-angle prime design with a bright aperture and a compact form factor. Its standard wide field of view makes it well-suited for a diverse range of subjects, including landscape, street, and reportage photography. The f/2 maximum aperture excels in challenging lighting conditions and provides enhanced control over depth of field.

Optically, the lens incorporates three aspherical elements and one SLD (Special Low Dispersion) element, effectively minimizing various aberrations and distortion to achieve sharp and accurate rendering. Additionally, the Super Multi-Layer Coating helps control ghosting and flare, contributing to improved colour fidelity and contrast. With its flexible focal length, compact build, and optical advancements, the Sigma 35mm f/2 DG DN lens is a reliable choice for photographers seeking versatility and high performance in their wide-angle prime lens.

In regard to handling and focus, this lens features a stepping motor for quick and quiet AF performance that suits both photo and video applications. As an I Series lens, too, this lens features a manual aperture ring and all-metal barrel constriction for enhanced tactility. Additionally, there is a rounded nine-blade diaphragm for smooth bokeh quality and the lens housing is also weather-sealed to suit working in inclement conditions.

• As part of the Contemporary line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve a balance between convenience and performance, and meshes a compact, lightweight build and versatile handling with notable optical attributes.
• I Series lens emphasizes a sleek and stylish physical design that is built to the same operational standards of Sigma's Cine lenses, including a mechanical aperture ring, knurled metal components, and various switches and tactile controls for intuitive operation.
• Wide-angle 35mm lens is designed for full-frame Leica L-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 52.5mm equivalent focal length.
• Bright f/2 maximum aperture strikes and ideal balance between speed and size and manages to maintain a compact physical profile while also offering low-light performance and depth of field control.
• One Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element markedly reduces chromatic aberrations and colour fringing for improved clarity and colour accuracy.
• Three aspherical elements help to control distortion and spherical aberrations for a high degree of sharpness and accurate rendering.
• 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 colour-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.
• Integrated stepping motor realizes smooth and quiet autofocus, which is further complemented by an internal focusing design to promote greater responsiveness.
• Manual aperture ring includes an 'A' position for camera-based aperture selection.
• Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
• Brass bayonet affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity and rubber sealing is incorporated in the mount's design to render it dust- and splash-resistant.
• Included LCF58-01M magnetic lens cap attaches directly to the front of the lens and is compatible with the optional CH-11 Lens Cap Holder.
• This lens is compatible with the optional Sigma UD-11 USB Dock for fine-tuning different lens characteristics and updating its firmware.
