Sigma ZMOUNT-30MM-F1.4DCDN Z Mount Lens for APS-C Size Sensors for Mirrorless Cameras

The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens is the perfect accessory for mirrorless camera owners who love the thrill of wide... more-open shooting. With its impressive F1.4 brightness, this lens delivers stunning bokeh that only a large-aperture lens can offer, as well as the outstanding optical performance you would expect from a premium prime lens. SIGMA has incorporated its latest technologies and design concepts into this lens, achieving an optimal balance of various elements, consistent with the Contemporary line.A standard prime lens with a focal length of around 50mm and an F1.4 aperture delivers an angle of view that's similar to what the human eye sees. This means that photographers can utilize the shallow depth of field at wide-open apertures to create breathtaking portraits and still life shots. Alternatively, they can increase the aperture to capture landscapes or snapshots with greater depth of field. Standard lenses are an all-time favorite among photographers for their versatility and ability to execute so many essential photography techniques. With the SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens, photographers can enjoy F1.4 brightness and standard lens capabilities with a 35mm equivalent focal length of 60mm on the Micro Four Thirds system, 48mm on the Canon EF-M Mount system, and 45mm on other systems.Sigma Includes:LCF-52mm lens capRear Lens CapLens Hood for 30mm f/1.4 DC DN1-year limited manufacture warrantySigma Features:APS-C f/1.4 to f/1645mm (Full-Frame Equivalent)Rounded 9-Blade DiaphragmStepping Motor AF SystemSuper Multi-Layer CoatingTwo Aspherical ElementsOne High-Refractive Index ElementSigma Specifications:Focal Length: 30mm (35mm Equivalent Focal Length: 45mm)Maximum Aperture: f/1.4Minimum Aperture: f/16Lens Mount: Nikon ZLens Format Coverage: APS-CAngle of View: 50.7°Minimum Focus Distance: 11.81" / 30 cmMaximum Magnification: 0.14xOptical Design: 9 Elements in 7 GroupsDiaphragm Blades: 9, RoundedFocus Type: AutofocusFilter Size: 52 mm (Front)Dimensions (ø x L): 2.6 x 2.9" / 64.8 x 73.3 mmWeight: 9.35 oz / 265 g Sigma ZMOUNT-30MM-F1.4DCDN Z Mount Lens for APS-C Size Sensors for Mirrorless Cameras.

Video reviews

The lenses of the Comtemporary series from the Japanese company Sigma are aimed at amateur photographers and do not particularly stand out from their peers with outstanding optical characteristics. However, this did not prevent the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary fixed lens from taking first place in the podium of the best optics for Sony mirrorless cameras in 2016 (according to the authoritative resource DxOMark).

High luminosity

In the version for the Micro 4/3 system, the equivalent focal length of the fixed lens is 60 mm. This means that it can handle both everyday scenes and more complex portrait photography. No joke, the model is the most aperture-fast in the budget optics class, and also captivates with its 9-blade diaphragm structure. Thanks to such data, it is possible to effectively separate the subject from the background and get fabulous bokeh with smooth "rounds" in the out-of-focus area.

Character of the drawing

The aperture of f/1.4 is quite workable for the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary. However, the image when shooting at an open aperture can be spoiled by vignetting, and the autofocus system sometimes stubbornly refuses to catch objects in the distance. It is enough to cover up to f/1.8 — and all problems are reduced to “nothing”. The picture literally “rings” with sharpness at any settings up to f/8.

Stepper drive

The autofocus system of the fixed lens is driven by a stepper drive, which ensures smooth focusing during video recording and fast focusing during photo shooting. If we take into account the Micro 4/3 system, then given the price and the nature of the design, there is simply no equal to the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary.
