The Sony E-mount 35mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens, produced by Sigma, offers a versatile focal length characterized by its sleek design and compact form. This wide-angle prime lens is particularly advantageous for various photographic subjects, such as landscapes, street scenes, and documentary work, thanks to its standard wide field of view. The f/2 maximum aperture performs exceptionally well in low-light situations and provides enhanced control over depth of field. The optical construction incorporates three aspherical elements and one SLD element, effectively reducing various aberrations and distortions to ensure sharp and precise image quality. Furthermore, a Super Multi-Layer Coating is applied to mitigate ghosting and flare, resulting in improved color accuracy and contrast.
Regarding usability and focusing capabilities, this lens is equipped with a stepping motor that delivers fast and silent autofocus, making it suitable for both photography and videography. As part of the I Series, it includes a manual aperture ring and a robust all-metal barrel for improved handling. Additionally, the lens features a rounded nine-blade diaphragm that contributes to a pleasing bokeh effect, and its weather-sealed construction allows for reliable performance in adverse weather conditions.
