Features
- A Medium Telephoto Prime Lens With An Extremely Large Aperture
- The most notable feature is its extremely large bokeh.
- The large bokeh surpasses the existing Sigma 135mm F1.8 DG HSM | Art, and even the "bokeh master" Sigma 105mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art, and enables new forms of expression.
- The 135mm F1.4 DG | Art is the world's first full-frame interchangeable autofocus lens with a 135mm focus length to achieve an aperture of F1.4
- The large bokeh produced by the brightest 135mm lens ever allows for impressive portraits that make the subject stand out.
- The lens also gives a compression effect, characteristic of proper telephoto lenses, enhancing the composition by making the subject stand out, making it ideal for portrait photographers aiming to take their work to the next level.
- Two aspherical lenses and four FLD glass elements are effectively arranged to thoroughly correct axial chromatic aberration, which tends to occur in large-aperture lenses.
- The strict design standards of the Art line lenses enable this lens to achieve high resolution across the entire image plane, despite being a telephoto prime with an extremely large F1.4 aperture.
- High-speed AF That Maximizes Excellent Optical Performance
- A floating focus configuration that allows two focus groups to move independently is used, and each focus group is driven by a linear motor HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) making it a dual HLA.
- Two types of HLA with different characteristics are optimally positioned according to the amount of focus group movement, ensuring the high thrust required for a large-aperture telephoto lens while achieving high-speed, high-precision AF.
- Features That Support A Variety Of Shooting Styles
- Equipped with an intuitive aperture ring. The click can be turned on or off with a switch. Customizable AFL buttons are located both on the side and top of the lens, allowing for flexible shooting styles.
