The lens mount is dust and splash-proof, making it a reliable choice in various conditions. It features a high-precision, rugged brass bayonet mount for enhanced durability. The lens design considers the capabilities of the camera body function to correct peripheral light amount and distortion, resulting in a compact and lightweight construction without compromising on image quality. The lens is designed to minimize flare and ghosting, and Sigma's Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces these effects to help photographers produce sharp and high contrast images even in backlit conditions. The lens benefits from an open aperture of F1.4, achieving sufficient bokeh and brightness even with APS-C size cameras. Its compact and lightweight body is perfect for daily use, capable of capturing various scenes ranging from portraits to snapshots, as well as night views. The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image. This lens builds on the success of the 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary and the 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lenses, making it a valuable addition to the Sigma DC DN Series for mirrorless cameras.
