Fulltime manual focus is also supported.įast maximum aperture of f/1.4 allows fast shutter speeds for clear low-light imaging and shallow depth of field focus.Ī Hyper Sonic Autofocus Motor (HSM) offers fast, smooth and quiet autofocus.Ĭonstructed with Thermally Stable Composite Material (TSC) which performs well in extreme temperatures, reducing the expansion and contraction of the internal lens barrel. A rear focusing system combined with a newly developed autofocus algorithm and Hyper Sonic Motor provide smooth and accurate autofocus. The lens’ optimized light distribution helps to minimize field curvature preventing a loss of image quality at the edges of photographs and its double-sided aspherical lens element minimizes spherical distortion. Its minimum focus distance is 11.8" (30 cm). With updated optical configurations (9 elements in 8 groups), as well as rounded aperture blades, the lens delivers sharp detail and nice background bokeh. With its particularly fast maximum aperture of f/1.4, the lens will perform very well in low light situations and provides shallow depth of field focus. Its 35mm focal length equivalent is 45mm which places it in the category of standard focal length lenses. And if this thing works well with the film SA-7N ( it does) then game over because it is well balanced on that as well.The 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM Art Lens for Sony from Sigma is a prime lens designed for Sony APS-C format cameras. Theoretically one could pull off a similar hat trick with Canon and Nikon mount versions I suppose… But again without a Foveon sensor somewhere in the mix, this would be a no-go for me personally. But buying an SA mount lens to shoot with an obscure, but very capable SLR, without having a digital SA body? I don’t know. If you are a sane and rational person then probably not.īut if you have a contrarian digital bent and would like a bit of f/1.4 on a film camera, then… maybe? Largely depends if you have become smitten with a certain oddball Foveon sensor having camera that comes kitted with this lens. Around the same size as the mirrorless Contemporary 30mm f/1.4 and smaller than the 35mm f/1.4 Art even with the adapter, I believe.It is swift on both Sony bodies and the film SA-7N. Any AF slowness experienced with the SIGMA sd Quattro (that I gladly tolerate for that Foveon sensor) is purely due to the sd Quattro.Thanks to SIGMA maintaining compatibility across film and digital it can be used with modern cameras and film (more on this in a future post).A great 45mm full-frame equivalent lens on APS-C and a 30mm lens on full-frame.
