Overview
For APS-C format, Sigma pioneered the large-aperture standard lens category with its 30mm F1.4 lens in 2005. With new lens configurations of nine elements in eight groups, as well as rounded aperture blades, this updated lens delivers pleasing extraordinary sharpness and beautiful bokeh. Its angle of view is equivalent to 45mm on a 35mm camera (which is similar to that of human vision), its minimum focusing distance is 11.8 inches and its maximum magnification ratio is 1:6.8. The lens’ optimized power distribution helps to minimize field curvature, prevent a loss of image quality at the edges of photographs and produce outstanding image quality.
