Product Description
At 85mm, a focal length widely regarded as ideal for portrait photography, this lens achieves Sigma's brightest -ever F1.2 aperture while also delivering outstanding portability . This lens comes as Sigma’s third F1.2 prime lens designed for mirrorless camera systems, rounding out the common trio of wide-angle, standard, and medium-telephoto focal lengths.
With it’s super bright aperture and 13 aperture blades, this 85mm is designed to deliver exceptional bokeh and background rendering thanks in part to the image separation granted by the 85mm focal length, making the lens an exceptional option for portraiture. A full range of functions that come standard with Sigma Art lenses, such as an aperture ring, aperture lock switch, and customizable AFL buttons, work to deliver a lens designed to meet the challenges of professional use.
Overwhelming resolving power
In addition to two SLD glass elements, glass with high anomalous dispersion is used to suppress the axial chromatic aberration inherent to large-aperture lenses to the utmost limit. Aspherical lens elements further thoroughly correct spherical aberration and sagittal coma flare. The lens boasts reliably high resolving power from the maximum aperture, fully bringing out the rendering that only F1.2 can offer. It captures every detail of the subject’s expression and texture, taking the quality of both photographs and video to a higher level.
Beautiful bokeh that makes the subject stand out
The combination of a large-aperture F1.2 and a medium-telephoto 85mm delivers an extremely shallow depth of field and beautiful, rich bokeh. The adoption of a 13-blade diaphragm maintains a near-circular bokeh even when the aperture is stopped down. Natural bokeh rendering that suppresses color bleeding and double-line bokeh makes the subject stand out impressively, bringing overwhelming three-dimensionality and immersion to portraits and video work.
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.
