SIGMA Camera Lens 56mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary [Nikon Z /single focal length lens]

Product Specifications

Basic Information

Product Features

Compact, lightweight, high image quality medium telephoto lens for APS-C. Enjoy the pleasure of a full-fledged large-aperture lens on an easy-to-use mirrorless system.

Sigma has previously offered the 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary wide-angle lens and the standard 30mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens as part of the F1.4 DC DN series lineup. The third in the series is the medium telephoto 56mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary. By incorporating the latest technology, we have created a lens that allows users to enjoy the brightness and bokeh volume of F1.4 even in the mid-telephoto range, while maintaining the Contemporary line's concept of combining high optical performance and compactness. The long-awaited large-aperture series of wide-angle, standard, and medium-telephoto lenses that can be easily taken out and about is now complete.

*About the product name
Lenses designed for an image circle equivalent to the APS-C size are marked with "DC" in the product name. DC" lenses may cause vignetting in full-size images. Please switch the shooting range when using these lenses.
In addition, lenses optimally designed for cameras with a short flange back are marked with "DN" in the product name.

- Comfortable AF even during movie shooting
The optical design for movie AF and the stepping motor enable quiet and natural focus work during autofocusing. The Sony E-mount also supports Fast Hybrid AF for excellent tracking performance. The camera's face recognition and pupil AF functions allow the camera to keep the face and pupils in focus even if the subject moves during shooting.

- Highly accurate and robust brass bayonet mount
The brass mount combines high precision and robustness. To ensure that the lens can withstand long-term use, a surface treatment has been applied to increase its strength and ensure high-quality lens manufacturing.

- Simplified dustproof and drip-proof mechanism
The mount is rubber-sealed for use in a variety of environments.

- High image quality comparable to the Art line and compact size
The lens was designed with the assumption that the camera's in-camera correction function would be used for peripheral illumination and distortion to achieve a compact size, and the use of SLD glass not only reduces the size but also corrects axial chromatic aberration, which is difficult to correct using image processing. The lens is designed to be both compact and lightweight, while providing excellent image quality.

- Flare and Ghosting
Thorough measures against flare and ghosting were taken from the initial stage of lens design to minimize the effects of strong incident light, such as backlighting. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting and provides high-contrast images even when shooting in backlit conditions.

- Circular Aperture
The 9-blade circular aperture allows the photographer to enjoy a circular bokeh effect when the aperture is wide open.

- SIGMA DC DN SERIES
Sigma has focused on offering a lineup of bright single focal length lenses from wide-angle to telephoto. In terms of interchangeable lenses for mirrorless cameras, our concept has been to adopt a lightweight, compact package that is easy to use in everyday life, with focal lengths that form the basic composition of photography.
