This member of Sigma's Art Lens roster is the 30mm F1.4 DC HSM | A and is a large-aperture F1.4 APS-C format standard lens. Sigma's Art Lens lineup is composed of versatile lenses that offer exceptional optical performance throughout the image. The 30mm F1.4 DC HSM | A follows in that philosphy with an angle of view equivalent to 45mm on a 35mm camera; making it a superb go-to lens for artistic photography on an APS-C format digital SLR. Offering the bright F1.4 aperture and an angle of view extremely close to that of human vision.

Users will find their artistic mind stimulated by the superior optical performance that offers outstanding expressive power at a wide range of focusing distances. For example, the photographer can leverage the shallow depth of field that creates beautiful bokeh for snap shots, portraits, and landscapes, and many different styles of photography.

Equipped with the latest in lens technology, the 30mm 1.4 lens Art boasts a Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM), Super Multi-Layer Coating and a design featuring Thermally Stable Composite Material (TSC). The HSM ensures quiet, accurate and high-speed autofocus; the Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting, while the TSC reduces expansion and contraction of the internal lens barrel.

A rear focus system prevents focus-dependent variation in aberration, making high-level image quality possible throughout the entire image. With their unchanging barrel length, these lenses also enhance balance and stability for the photographer. An optimized autofocus algorithm achieves smooth focusing while a 9 blade rounded diaphragm creates beautiful bokeh. Under the Global Vision standard, every lens will be tested before shipping using the Sigma A1 MTF system to ensure the highest degree of quality possible and also features capability with the USB dock.
