Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E Mount: The Ultimate Wide-Angle Zoom for Sony Full-Frame Mirrorless
The Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN Art Lens is a high-performance, wide-angle zoom lens meticulously engineered for Sony full-frame E-mount mirrorless cameras. As part of Sigma’s esteemed Art line, this lens delivers exceptional optical performance, a bright constant f/2.8 maximum aperture, and robust build quality, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of demanding applications, including landscape, astrophotography, architecture, and videography. Its combination of extreme wide-angle coverage and consistent brightness empowers photographers and filmmakers to capture stunning visuals with remarkable detail and clarity.
Ultra-Wide 14-24mm Zoom Range for Expansive Perspectives:
The 14-24mm focal length range offers an incredibly wide field of view, allowing you to capture sweeping landscapes, dramatic architectural shots, and immersive interior scenes. This extreme wide-angle perspective opens up creative possibilities for emphasizing scale, creating a sense of depth, and capturing the entirety of a scene.
Bright Constant f/2.8 Maximum Aperture:
The constant f/2.8 maximum aperture is a significant advantage for a wide-angle zoom lens. It provides consistent brightness throughout the entire zoom range, enabling excellent low-light performance and allowing for greater control over depth of field. This bright aperture facilitates pleasing background separation even at wider angles and ensures consistent exposure when zooming during video recording.
Exceptional Optical Performance – The Hallmark of the Art Line:
As part of Sigma’s Art line, the 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN is designed with a focus on uncompromising optical performance. Its sophisticated optical formula comprises 18 elements in 13 groups, including five SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements and one FLD (Fluorite Low Dispersion) glass element. These premium elements effectively minimize chromatic aberrations, color fringing, and sagittal coma flare, resulting in exceptionally sharp, clear, and color-accurate images across the entire frame, even at the widest aperture and focal lengths. Three aspherical lens elements, including a large-diameter aspherical element at the front, control distortion and spherical aberrations, contributing to outstanding overall image quality.
Fast and Precise Autofocus Optimized for Sony E Mount:
The lens features a stepping motor optimized for the autofocus systems of Sony E-mount cameras. This motor provides fast, smooth, and near-silent autofocus performance for both stills and video. The responsive AF ensures accurate subject acquisition and tracking, allowing you to capture dynamic scenes with confidence. It is also fully compatible with Sony’s advanced autofocus features, such as Eye AF.
Robust and Durable Build Quality:
Built to withstand the rigors of professional use, the 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN Art lens features a robust and durable construction with a dust- and splash-resistant structure at the mount, focus ring, zoom ring, and cover. This provides added protection when shooting in challenging weather conditions. The lens also incorporates a brass bayonet mount for secure and long-lasting attachment to your camera body.
Dedicated Controls for Enhanced Operability:
The lens features a dedicated AFL (Autofocus Lock) button that can be customized via the camera body. The smooth and precise zoom and focus rings offer excellent tactile feedback for precise manual control.
Rear Filter Holder for Sheet-Type Filters:
A convenient rear filter holder is included as a standard accessory. This allows for the use of sheet-type filters, such as ND or color correction filters, without the need for a large front-mounted filter system, particularly beneficial for ultra-wide-angle lenses.
Super Multi-Layer and Nano Porous Coatings:
The lens elements are treated with Sigma’s Super Multi-Layer Coating to reduce flare and ghosting, ensuring high contrast and color accuracy even in challenging lighting conditions. Additionally, the Nano Porous Coating further minimizes reflections, contributing to even cleaner and more defined images.
