Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG DN II Art Lens
The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG DN II Art is a versatile wide-angle prime lens that’s a perfect companion for any serious creator. With an impossibly bright f/1.2 maximum aperture in a new, lighter design, this lens is a powerful tool for low-light shooting and expressive bokeh, without sacrificing portability.

Unrivaled Performance in a Lighter Body
Extreme Brightness: The lens’s defining feature is its extremely bright f/1.2 maximum aperture. This allows you to shoot in even the darkest scenes and gives you incredible control over depth of field, creating stunning subject separation and beautiful, expressive bokeh.

Precision Optical Design: The optical design features a total of 17 elements in 13 groups, including four double-sided aspherical elements and one Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element. This complex design ensures exceptional clarity and sharpness from edge to edge, even when shooting wide open.

Compact and Lightweight: Sigma has made this lens approximately 30% lighter and 20% shorter than its predecessor, making it a highly portable option for landscape, street, documentary, and photojournalism.

Superb Backlight Resistance: Special effort has been taken to develop backlight resistance, minimizing potential lens flare and ghosting for high-contrast images, even in difficult lighting conditions.

Advanced Features for Photo and Video
Fast and Quiet Autofocus: Powered by Sigma’s dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) focusing system, the lens provides fast and quiet autofocus. The lens elements have also been optimized to reduce focus breathing, making it an excellent choice for professional video work.

Durable, Weather-Sealed Build: The lens is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. It features a dust- and splash-resistant construction and a water- and oil-repellent coating on the front element, so you can shoot confidently in harsh environments.

Customizable Controls: For greater control, the lens includes an assignable AFL button for custom functions, an aperture ring lock, and a switch to change the aperture ring from clicked to declicked, which is perfect for smooth video operation.
