Faster, Lighter, and Sharper Wide-Angle Prime
Redesigned for today’s hybrid creators, the Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG DN II Art is a faster, smaller, and optically superior evolution of one of Sigma’s most iconic lenses. This second-generation wide-angle prime brings a more compact build, refined optics, an advanced AAC (Advanced Amorphous Coating), and faster, quieter autofocus—making it a versatile choice for photography and video alike.
Exceptional Image Performance
Versatile Wide-Angle Field of View
The 35mm focal length remains a classic for its natural perspective and flexibility. Ideal for landscapes, portraits, street, and documentary photography, the bright f/1.4 aperture delivers stunning results in both bright and low-light situations. It also enables beautiful subject isolation and smooth background blur.
Enhanced Optical Design and Refined Bokeh
This new optical formula achieves greater resolution and clarity than the previous generation. The design incorporates four aspherical and two SLD elements to minimize spherical and chromatic aberrations, ensuring precise color, high sharpness, and minimal distortion.
-
The optimized arrangement produces smoother, cleaner bokeh with minimal color fringing.
-
An 11-blade rounded diaphragm maintains soft, rounded highlights for natural depth.
-
The new AAC coating dramatically reduces flare, reflections, and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color accuracy even in challenging lighting.
Precision Focusing for Photo and Video
Dual HLA Autofocus System
Driven by dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuators), the focusing system delivers lightning-fast, accurate, and near-silent autofocus—ideal for both stills and motion work.
-
Floating focus mechanism maintains exceptional sharpness from 11" to infinity.
-
Optimized focus group placement minimizes focus breathing, ensuring consistent framing for video focus pulls.
Compact, Durable, and Intuitive
Portable Design, Built to Last
Sigma’s engineering refinements make this lens 14% shorter and 20% lighter than its predecessor—now measuring just 3.75" long and weighing 1.2 lb. Despite its smaller size, it maintains professional durability with:
-
Dust- and splash-resistant sealing for reliable field use.
-
A water- and oil-repellent front coating that’s easy to clean and maintain.
Optimized Handling
-
Manual aperture ring with the option to de-click for smooth, silent adjustments during video recording.
-
Dual customizable AFL buttons for quick focus control or other assignable camera functions.
-
AF/MF switch for intuitive focus mode changes.
-
Lockable petal-shaped lens hood for secure, glare-reducing performance.
The Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG DN II Art blends artistry with precision engineering—delivering faster performance, cleaner optics, and a more compact form that’s ready for any creative challenge.
