High resolution, plus a remarkable bokeh.

While maximizing the sharpness in the sharpness area, this lens offers silky blur effects from other shots. To achieve exceptional sharpness, we minimized sagittal coma, chromatic aberration, and all the aberrations that could affect the quality of the image. The result is a perfect reproduction of even the smallest details, even when fully open. We have also minimized vignetting and colored fringes in fuzzy areas, creating a natural and pleasant bokeh effect.
Its optical quality makes it the ultimate goal. Symbol of quality by Sigma, here is the ideal standard goal.

Bringing the concept of the Art line to the highest level, the 50mm F1.4 DG HSM is a standard wide aperture lens with extreme performance. Its resolution is ideal for very high definition sensors. It generates balanced images with nice bokeh, setting a new benchmark for goals of this type. It is the best in the world of F1.4 50mm, known to best express the personality and vision of the photographer. To try it is really to adopt it!

An unequaled level of performance.

A 50mm F1.4 offers an angle of view identical to that of the human eye, beautiful effects of fuzziness and great adaptability. Its characteristics allow the photographer to approach his work very freely. This is why it must offer a level of performance close to perfection. Sigma has designed lenses dedicated to DSLRs as soon as they appear on the market. In 2008, we launched the 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM. Larger than the existing lenses, this lens offered an excellent level of performance and represented our ideal of the time. Only a few camera manufacturers had previously produced this type of lens. Our arrival on this segment of the standard optics upsets habits. By gaining the support of many photographers thanks to his remarkable performances, he has become one of the jewels of our range. The 50mm F1.4 DG HSM brings the concept of Art line and quality requirements to their highest level. While presenting a superb bokeh, it offers outstanding peripheral brightness and minimal distortion. Without compromises down to the smallest detail, this bright lens offers the very best in image quality. Its resolution is ideal for very high definition sensors: it is extremely contrasting on the subject, while offering softness outside the sharpness area. With the very high performance that characterizes our line Art, this lens has been designed on the same principles as its predecessor, the famous Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM.
