Sigma 65mm f/2.0 Contemporary DG DN Lens for Sony E Mount

The Sony E-mount Sigma 65mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens presents a stylish and streamlined design, functioning as a telephoto/long-normal prime lens that offers a distinctive field of view ideal for portrait photography and selective everyday use. The lens's slightly extended focal length is complemented by a bright f/2 aperture, which not only aids in maintaining a compact form but also enhances low-light performance and depth of field management. From an optical perspective, this 65mm f/2 lens incorporates two aspherical elements and one low dispersion element, effectively minimizing various aberrations while delivering exceptional sharpness and clarity. Furthermore, a Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to mitigate flare and ghosting, resulting in improved contrast.

In terms of usability, this lens is equipped with a stepping motor that ensures rapid and silent autofocus performance, making it suitable for both photography and videography. As part of the I Series, it features a manual aperture ring and a robust all-metal barrel construction, enhancing the tactile experience. Additionally, the lens is designed with a rounded nine-blade diaphragm, which contributes to a pleasing bokeh effect, and its weather-sealed housing allows for reliable operation in challenging environmental conditions.
