The fast 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art standard lens delivers the highest imaging performance for a new era of superior image quality. Its excellent optical performance makes it the ultimate "always with you" Lens.
This Lens is a symbol of SIGMA quality and the ideal standard lens. It delivers superior performance and fulfills the concept of our Art product line to the highest degree. It provides immensely balanced images with a wonderful bokeh and sets a new standard for fast standard lenses.
Using all the experience and the latest design technologies drawn from past developments, aberrations are effectively corrected and high resolution and amazing imaging performance, even at the edges of the image, are achieved.
High resolution with a wonderful bokeh
While high resolution is desired for the focused subject, beautiful bokeh is desired outside the plane of focus for a smooth transition of sharpness. Imaging errors such as sagittal coma and color distortion, which affect image quality, are effectively corrected. Even at open aperture, high-resolution reproduction is achieved without blurring. By reducing vignetting to a minimum and preventing colored fringes in front of and behind the focus point, a very natural bokeh is achieved.
Excellent sagittal coma correction
Ideally, a fast standard Lens already exhibits high imaging performance across the entire image area at open aperture. Excellent sagittal coma correction is provided, for example, by the bare pressed aspherical glass lens elements. Due to the reduced distortion of point light sources at the image edges, it is perfectly suited for astrophotography and available light. It also provides attractive bokeh for portraits and indoor photography.
Correction of longitudinal chromatic aberration
SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements are used to counteract longitudinal chromatic aberration, which is difficult to correct even in image processing, and ensure high image quality over the entire focus range. As a result, the Lens achieves sharp and high-contrast image reproduction.
Minimized distortion
It is not possible to compensate for distortion only by changing the aperture values. Thus, the development phase of the Lens was already decisive in minimizing distortion. In the "SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG HSM", each glass element was precisely positioned for optimized distribution of forces to reduce distortion to a minimum.
High edge illumination
The Lens provides very uniform illumination even in the peripheral areas of the image, which can otherwise be a problem with large diameter optical systems. The positioning of large elements in the front lens group improved efficiency at open aperture. This helps minimize vignetting and provides the utmost clarity across the entire image field.
Reflection and Ghost Eliminating Design
From the beginning of the lens design process, susceptibility to reflections and ghosting is studied to achieve an optical design that is resistant to even strong backlighting. Super Multi-Layer Coating (SML) reduces flare and ghosting and delivers sharp, high-contrast images, even when backlit.
