Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG Art Lens for Sony E-Mount
The Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG Art Lens for Sony E-mount is a ground-breaking ultra-wide-angle prime lens engineered to deliver outstanding optical performance, particularly for demanding starscape and landscape photography. With its world-first f/1.4 maximum aperture at this focal length, this lens allows photographers to capture incredibly bright, sharp images even in challenging low-light environments.
Key Features
- Outstanding Optical Performance: Features a sophisticated optical design with 19 elements in 15 groups, including 3 FLD, 1 SLD, and 4 aspherical elements to thoroughly correct aberrations and sagittal coma flare.
- Astrophotography Optimised: Equipped with a Manual Focus Lock (MFL) switch to disable the focus ring, a lens heater retainer to prevent vignetting, and a secure rear filter holder.
- Innovative Front Cap: Includes a specially designed cover-type front cap featuring a locking mechanism and dedicated storage slots for two rear sheet filters.
- High-Speed Autofocus: Powered by a High-response Linear Actuator (HLA) motor that provides quiet, highly precise, and rapid autofocusing.
- Robust Art Line Build: Built with a dust- and splash-resistant structure, a water- and oil-repellent front coating, and a mixture of magnesium and Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) materials for durability.
- Tripod Socket: Comes supplied with a detachable, Arca-Swiss compatible tripod socket to ensure stable mounting and balanced handling on tripods.
This exceptional lens offers a unique combination of extreme brightness, wide-angle coverage, and dedicated controls for capturing the night sky. Whether shooting starry vistas, expansive landscapes, or architectural marvels, it provides the premium build quality and optical excellence expected from the Sigma Art series.
Ultra wide-angle 14mm with a maximum aperture of F1.4 and outstanding optical performance
This world-first performance was achieved by applying the best of Sigma’s optical technologies, from the design to the lens manufacturing process. 19 elements in 15 groups, including 1 SLD glass element, 3 FLD glass elements, and 4 aspherical lens elements, make up a luxurious lens configuration. This allows for advanced aberration correction and a high degree of precision in the lens construction. This allows both advanced aberration correction and F1.4 brightness. In particular, sagittal coma flare, which distorts the shape of stars, has been carefully corrected, and even at the widest aperture, the lens delivers high image reproducibility right to the periphery of the image. Ghosting and flare are also thoroughly addressed through both optical design and coatings. This allows for clear, crisp shooting of starry sky and night scenes. Optimized for starscapes, which require extremely high performance, this lens delivers images that exceed expectations in any scene, including landscapes, architecture snapshots, portraits, and indoor photography.
Tripod Socket
Includes a detachable tripod socket compatible with Arca-Swiss type. As the 14mm F1.4 DG | Art is heavier on the front side, attaching the tripod socket helps it mount on a tripod in a more stable way. The shape is designed to prevent interference even when using the lens heater.
