It's light, weighing just 645 grams, but it's still powerful. It’s great for travel and professional photography. The lens is weather-sealed, so it's good for shooting outdoors in different conditions. The 35mm focal length is similar to the human eye. It's ideal for portraits and large landscapes.

The Sigma 35mm F1.4 has a complex optical structure. It has 15 elements in 11 groups. This design cuts down on color distortions and keeps images sharp across the whole frame. The diaphragm has 11 rounded blades for smooth bokeh, which is great for making subjects stand out against a blurry background. You can also switch the aperture ring to a silent mode, which is great for video.

The autofocus is fast and quiet. It’s precise, which is important for quick shooting situations. The lens has a de-clickable aperture ring and a customizable focus hold button, making it easy to use. Whether you're a pro or a hobbyist, the Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG DN Art Lens is a high-quality lens for capturing stunning images.

More details:

• Fast and quiet AF in a compact body - The focusing mechanism in the SIGMA 35mm F1.4 DG DN | Art features a stepping motor. This motor controls a focusing lens group composed of a single, lightweight element, which means AF is responsive and quiet and is able to keep track of moving objects very effectively. Manual focusing is smooth and precise but with the right amount of resistance for filmmakers. Certainly, this lens has a focus mode switch on the body.
• Professional feature-set - On the body of the Sigma Art 35mm F 1.4 DG DN lens is an aperture ring that allows the aperture to be controlled via the lens, or when set to Auto, using the camera. An aperture lock switch on the lens body allows the aperture ring to be locked in Auto so that it is not accidentally knocked during shooting. A big plus for filmmakers, the aperture ring can be de-clicked, allowing users to seamlessly adjust exposure. Also on the lens barrel is a focus mode switch and an AFL button, which can be customized to a desired function from within the camera menu (depending on the model).
• Inner focus system - To increase stability, this Sigma 35mm Art lens configuration uses movable internal lens elements that adjust focus without changing the length of the lens barrel.
• Stepping Motor - The lens is capable of smooth, quiet, and high-speed AF made possible by a stepping motor, as well as supports Face/Eye Detection AF and video AF.
• Compatible with Lens Aberration Correction - Matching the optical characteristics of the lens, this function performs in-camera corrections of peripheral illumination, chromatic aberrations, distortion, and more, to further enhance image quality.
• Super Multi-Layer Coating - In digital cameras, flare and ghosting may also be caused by reflections between the image sensor and lens surfaces. Here too, SIGMA’s Super Multi-Layer Coating is highly effective, assuring images of outstanding contrast.
• Water and oil-repellent coating - Incorporates a water and oil-repellent coating that allows water to be wiped away easily and prevents oil and fat from sticking to the surface, even in challenging shooting conditions. At the same time, the maintenance of the lens surface becomes easier.
• Aperture ring - Designed to help users work intuitively.
  
• Aperture ring click switch - Mounted with a de-click function for removing clicks by the aperture ring click switch, enabling seamless operations that are especially useful such as during video shooting.
• Aperture ring lock switch - A ring lock system to prevent the unintended movement of the aperture ring during shooting. 
• Focus Mode Switch - Using this switch, it is possible to switch the focus mode between AF and MF. 
• AFL button - Can be assigned various functions to widen the range of operations available on the lens. 
• Dust and Splash Resistant Structure - This Sigma 35mm Sony E mount & Leica L mount features a highly effective dust and splash-resistant structure with special sealing at the mount connection, manual focus ring, zoom ring, and cover connection.

Applications:

• Street Photography: Capture everyday life with vivid clarity and a natural perspective.
• Portrait Photography: Utilize the shallow depth of field for striking, focused portraits.
• Low-light Photography: Take advantage of the f/1.4 aperture to shoot clear images in dim settings.
• Travel Photography: Lightweight and compact, ideal for documenting diverse landscapes and cultures.
• Event Photography: Reliable in various conditions, perfect for both indoor and outdoor events.
