The Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens for Canon is a high-performance prime lens designed for portrait photography, offering outstanding sharpness, beautiful bokeh, and excellent low-light performance. It is part of Sigma’s Art series, which is known for premium optical quality and construction. Here’s a detailed description of its features:
- Wide Aperture: The f/1.4 maximum aperture allows for excellent background blur (bokeh), making it perfect for portrait photography where you want to isolate the subject from the background. It also performs well in low-light conditions by allowing more light to hit the sensor.
- Optical Design: The lens features a sophisticated optical design with 14 elements in 12 groups, including special low dispersion glass to minimize chromatic aberrations and ensure high-resolution imagery with minimal distortion.
- Art Series Build: As part of Sigma’s Art lens line, the 85mm f/1.4 is engineered to deliver exceptional image quality with high contrast, sharpness, and clarity, even at wide apertures. The Art series is well-regarded for producing stunning results in both professional photography and videography.
- Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM): The lens is equipped with Sigma’s Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) for fast and silent autofocus, making it ideal for both stills and video work. The autofocus is smooth and accurate, ensuring precise focusing even in challenging conditions.
- Beautiful Bokeh: The large aperture, combined with a rounded 9-blade diaphragm, creates smooth and aesthetically pleasing out-of-focus areas, enhancing the visual appeal of portraits and close-up shots.
- Construction and Durability: Built with a robust, weather-sealed design, this lens is constructed to withstand challenging shooting environments. The lens features a solid, premium feel and is designed for long-lasting use.
- Compatibility: This lens is designed for Canon full-frame DSLR cameras but is also compatible with Canon APS-C cameras, where it provides an effective focal length equivalent to approximately 136mm.
- Minimal Distortion: The optical design ensures minimal barrel distortion and vignetting, giving photographers greater flexibility in post-processing.
