Optimized for use in Canon’s line of mirrorless cameras, the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens for Canon EF-M Mount provides outstanding optical performance in a lightweight, compact design. Three optical lens elements help minimize spherical distortions and chromatic aberrations, while the stepping AF motor ensures smooth, quiet operation. The large aperture delivers sharp, bright shots, beautiful bokeh, and flexibility in depth-of-field. Portable and powerful A lightweight, portrait-length prime lens, the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens is only 2.34 inches (59.5mm) long and weighs just over half a pound (280g), so it’s easy to shoot on-site or in-studio. The bright f/1.4 maximum aperture provides exceptional low-light performance as well as extensive control over depth-of-field. A Minimum Object Distance (MOD) of 19.69 inches means even more detail in close-up shots. Crisp, clear images and accurate color One Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element and two aspherical elements in the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens work together to produce image quality comparable to the Art line of Sigma lenses. A Super Multi-Layer coating on the lens elements helps minimize ghosting and flaring, even in harsh lighting conditions. Quick, quiet autofocus The stepping AF motor in the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens is fast, smooth and precise, all while maintaining near-silent performance, making this lens ideal for both still photography as well as video.
