This lens offers excellent performance for portrait photography with its bright f/1.4 aperture, ideal for low-light conditions and achieving selective focus effects. It delivers sharp, clear images thanks to its advanced optical design, reducing aberrations and enhancing color accuracy. The compact and lightweight build makes it convenient for travel, while its fast and silent autofocus is perfect for both photos and videos. Additionally, its durable, weather-resistant construction ensures reliability in various shooting environments.
An especially sleek portrait-length prime, the 56mm f/1.4 DC DN is part of Sigma's Contemporary series of lenses, and is designed for use with Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras. The lens is characterized by its bright f/1.4 maximum aperture, which suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers improved control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus techniques. The optical design utilizes two aspherical elements and one SLD element, which help to reduce both spherical and chromatic aberrations for greater sharpness and clarity. A super multilayer coating has also been applied to suppress flare and ghosting in order to achieve more contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions. Complementing the optics is a stepping AF motor, which suits both photo and video applications due to its quick, precise, and near-silent performance.
As part of the Contemporary line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve a balance between convenience and performance, and meshes a compact, lightweight build and versatile handling with notable optical attributes.
