Macro photography at the highest level
Make something special out of the small things in everyday life.
Performance exceeds expectation
The SIGMA 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art is the first macro lens specifically for mirrorless cameras in our Art product line.
This medium telephoto macro lens offers excellent resolving power, with wonderfully soft bokeh.
Everything that makes a medium telephoto macro lens has been realized here at the highest level.
The innovative optical design of the 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art ensures excellent sharpness and fine reproduction at all shooting distances, from macro to infinity. It also achieves clear images without color fringing. This is achieved, among other things, by paying special attention to the correction of longitudinal chromatic aberration. Longitudinal chromatic aberration cannot be corrected by the camera's internal aberration correction.
Another focus in the development of the 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art was on bokeh, which plays a particularly important role in medium telephoto shots. The large yield of ambient light creates beautiful out-of-focus circles, while the natural bokeh in the foreground and background lends incredible flexibility to photographic expressions.
Highest Optical Performance and AF Performance
Optical performance is a top priority in the design of the lenses in the SIGMA Art product line.
Through consistent development work, we have managed to excellently cope with coma, for example, an aberration that often occurs at the edges of the image. In addition, ghosting and reflections are highly minimized. This was achieved through rigorous testing at early stages of development, ensuring that optical performance is excellent even in backlit conditions.
In addition to being optimized for the latest functions, such as face/eye detection AF, which mirrorless camera systems are very good at, the Lens is equipped with a powerful Hyper-Sonic Motor (HSM) that ensures highly accurate and smooth AF operation.
All of these elements are created using the most advanced manufacturing technologies at our factory in Aizu. As a result, the 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art features the highest level of performance, which is why it deserves to be included in the SIGMA Art product line.
Ghosting and Reflection Minimizing Design
An ideal Lens directs incident light through all lenses and onto the sensor. If, on the other hand, some of the light is reflected by individual lenses, not only does the light yield decrease; the reflections within the Lens create ghost images and aperture spots, or they reduce contrast. Such effects would be particularly noticeable in backlit shots.
To prevent this, our 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art uses a Super Multi-Layer Coating (SML) that reduces flare and ghosting. The result is clear, sharp, high-contrast images without distracting lens flares.
Compatible with the latest full-frame mirrorless cameras
The SIGMA 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art is compatible with full-frame mirrorless cameras with L-mount or Sony E-mount.
An HSM motor is used for fast focusing. Auto focus with automatic eye detection used in newer mirrorless cameras is also supported, making precise focusing of portraits, for example, a breeze.
Effortless work for maximum creativity
A wide range of features and excellent build quality make the 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art a pleasure to work with.
The Lens has a focus range limiter, which is extremely handy for macro shooting, as you can preselect or limit the AF working range. In addition, the lens has an AFL button* that the photographer can assign specific functions to.
The manual aperture ring on the Lens can be used as an option, is intuitive to use and also very functional. For example, the aperture ring click switch can be used to make the aperture ring click at each aperture stop or not, if it is not desired for background noise in macro shots of insects, for example. There is also an aperture ring lock switch. Thanks to all these advanced features, photographers can optimally adapt their working methods to their shooting style.
The 105mm F2.8 DG DN MACRO | Art is also dust- and splash-proof, so it can easily be used in harsher shooting conditions. All rings and switches, in turn, feature exceptionally durable construction, excellent operability and a comfortable grip.
