Sigma 30mm f1.4 DC DN C – Sony E Mount

Sigma 30mm f1.4 DC DN | C – Sony E Mount

The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary’s large-aperture lens gives owners of mirrorless cameras the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful bokeh effect that only a large-aperture lens can offer. The exceptionally sharp optical performance from this fine prime lens leverages SIGMA’s latest technologies and design insights. This lens fulfils the concept of the Contemporary line, in which varied elements come together in optimal balance.

Available Mounts

Versatile focal length

A prime lens with a focal length of around 50mm and F1.4 brightness offers an angle of view very similar to human vision. Use the shallow depth of field at wide-open aperture to take stunning portraits and tabletop still life shots. Or, close the aperture for greater depth of field and shoot landscapes or snapshots.

35mm equivalent focal length of 60mm on the Micro Four Thirds system and 45mm on the Sony E-mount system.

Featuring SIGMA’s latest technologies

For optimal balance with light, compact camera bodies with a short flange back distance, SIGMA designed the new SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lens to be extremely compact. Moreover, the special design of the focus lens group allows fast and smooth AF performance for videography and more.

Featuring SIGMA’s latest technologies, this lens digitally corrects optical distortion. This lens combines a compact design and comfortable operation while prioritising outstanding image quality.

Combining compactness with outstanding optical performance

The front lens element features high-refractive index, high-dispersion glass for extra power and a shorter overall lens length. To optimize the lens for mirrorless cameras, two aspherical lens elements help ensure outstanding image quality and overall compactness.

The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary features SIGMA’s inner focus technologies, while lighter lens elements in the focus lens group make possible a more compact actuator. Moreover, this lens offers outstanding stability whether the photographer is shooting handheld or mounted on a tripod.

Structurally, the lens features materials and parts that contribute to its compact, lightweight structure. In summary, this is an unprecedented lens that combines outstanding optical performance with exceptional portability and usability.

Image quality rivalling that of SIGMA Art line lenses

In addition to featuring an optimized layout and power distribution, this lens incorporates one aspherical lens element, one double aspherical lens element, as well as an element made of a high-refractive-index, high-dispersion glass with high anomalous partial dispersion.

By effectively leveraging these technologies, the lens delivers an outstanding level of light to the edges of the image while minimizing lateral chromatic aberration. To correct distortion, the lens takes advantage of the image correction capabilities of the mirrorless camera body, using the corrective power of the optical system to enhance sharpness. The final result is an extremely compact lens that delivers image quality that rivals that of our Art line lenses.

Shallow depth of field for a beautiful bokeh effect

The large-diameter lens with F1.4 brightness makes possible a shallow depth of field for a beautiful bokeh effect—unavailable until now in a standard lens for mirrorless cameras.

Designed to minimize flare and ghosting

From the start of the design process, SIGMA took steps to minimize flare and ghosting and establish an optical design that is resistant to strong incidental light sources such as backlight.

Stepping motor incorporated for enhanced videography

By incorporating a stepping motor, the lens offers exceptionally quick and quiet autofocusing performance. This feature is especially useful when using the camera to take videos. This lens is also compatible with Sony E-mount Fast Hybrid AF.

Extra-long Hood (Supplied)

The included lens hood is extra-long and features an antireflective coating to manage unwanted light. The hood also features rubber and anti-slip textures to make it easier for the photographer to hold while shooting.

Thermally Stable Composite material

Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) is highly elastic, it exhibits minimal deformation. Parts made of TSC are therefore less prone to develop gaps between each other over time. The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary features a lens barrel and aperture parts made of TSC, which contribute both to the compactness of the lens and the smooth functioning of the aperture system. TSC helps increase the precision of cells holding lens elements and parts related to the focus lens group, further enhancing lens performance.
