Lens purpose and fit

This Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary lens is built for APS-C L-mount mirrorless cameras. The fast f/1.4 aperture serves low-light shooting and shallow depth-of-field work. It is not for photographers who need a zoom range or full-frame image-circle coverage.

Capacity and headroom

The 56mm focal length gives an 84mm equivalent field of view on APS-C sensors, placing it in the short-telephoto portrait zone. One SLD and two aspherical elements correct spherical and chromatic aberrations for sharpness across the f/1.4-to-f/16 aperture range.

Thermals noise and power

A stepping autofocus motor drives focus quickly, precisely and near-silently, suiting both stills and video. The optical formula and Super Multi-Layer Coating suppress flare and ghosting in strong light without adding mechanical noise or heat.

Questions about this item

Will the 56mm focal length give me the same field of view on my APS-C L-mount body as an 84mm lens on full-frame?

Yes, the 56mm focal length provides an 84mm equivalent angle of view on APS-C format L-mount cameras.

How can I confirm the stepping AF motor is operating smoothly for both stills and video?

The stepping motor delivers quick, precise and near-silent autofocus; listen for quiet operation and watch for smooth focus transitions during recording.

Does the box include a lens hood or must I purchase one separately?

The supplied information lists the optical design with two aspherical elements and one SLD element, plus Super Multi-Layer Coating, but does not detail bundled accessories.
