The Canon EF-mount 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens from Sigma is a short-telephoto, portrait-length prime distinguished by its bright maximum aperture and advanced optical layout. The fast f/1.4 design greatly benefits working in low-light conditions and also affords extensive control over the depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus. As part of the Art line of lenses, this lens is also designed for high-resolution rendering and utilizes FLD and SLD glass to control chromatic aberrations and color fringing for notable clarity. Additionally, a rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality. The physical design utilizes Thermally Stable Composite material for durability in a wide range of environments, and a brass bayonet mount also offers rigidity and mounting precision. As part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and artistic applications.

Impressively bright f/1.4 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and also provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques. One aspherical element is used to help limit distortion and spherical aberrations and also contributes to greater overall sharpness and accurate rendering. Nine-blade rounded diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality. A specialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates. Protective coating has been applied to the front element and is both water and oil-repellent to aid in cleaning. This lens is compatible with the optional Sigma USB Dock for fine-tuning different lens characteristics and updating its firmware.
