Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Series Lens - Leica L-Mount

The technical details behind this lens

Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Series Lens - Leica L-Mount offers great optical performance and robust physical construction. Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to minimize surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for increased contrast and colour accuracy. Comprised of 15 elements in 11 groups, the lens design includes two "F" Low Dispersion (FLD) elements, five Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements, and two aspherical elements to significantly reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations, as well as limit distortion for clean, sharp and evenly illuminated imagery. The wide focal length and consistent image quality make this lens especially suitable for landscape, interior, architectural, and astrophotography applications, while the fast f/1.4 maximum aperture deems it great for natural and low-light shooting. The integrated Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) realizes quick and quiet autofocusing, which is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance. The HSM permits full-time manual focus control simply by rotating the focus ring at any moment. It also features a rounded nine-blade diaphragm that helps to produce an attractive out-of-focus quality. The lens is constructed using a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) material, along with traditional metals, for greater precision and use in wide temperature variations. This prime wide-angle 20mm f/1.4 lens is designed for full-frame Leica L-mount mirrorless cameras, and can also be used with DX models where it will deliver a 30mm equivalent focal length. For ensured accuracy and durability, the bayonet mount is constructed from brass.
