With its compact size, this popular classic focal length is perfect for portraits, street and everyday photography. The lens has been designed to be used over a long period of time. Using that same technology that Sigma used to create the Sigma CINE lens range, the 50mm f\/2 DG | Contemporary uses an all-metal construct that is robust and provides a premium feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis lens is incredibly versatile, with a wide range of applications that allow photographers to capture outstanding, high-definition images. It is ideal for both new and experienced photographers, providing reliability and exceptional optical quality in a compact full-frame design.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e“Standard lens” that matches the optical performance standards set by the Sigma Contemporary line of lenses.\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSigma I series lenses are developed around the concept of “Compact everyday lenses with outstanding image quality” and the Sigma 50mm F2 DG | Contemporary is exactly that. It features high-quality optics in a compact size, perfect for a wide variety of photographic styles. Built from the ground up for mirrorless cameras, the Sigma 50mm F2 DG | Contemporary is constructed using a single SLD glass element and three aspherical lens elements that are excellent at correcting various types of aberration for clear, high-definition images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe conflicting ideals of improving optical performance while reducing body size and weight are achieved through the latest optical design, and the processing and production technologies at Sigma’s only production facility in Aizu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 50mm focal length is mostly known for portrait photography, so careful consideration was taken when designing the lens, focusing on the smoothness of the bokeh created by the F2 aperture. Its optical design gives smooth transitions from in-focus to out-of-focus areas, and helps minimize flare and ghosting caused by backlit environments. The quiet stepping motor provides quick, reliable autofocusing for both stills and video.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eExpanding the I series lineup. “Creating pictures that are beyond beautiful”.\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sigma I series features full-frame compatible lenses that offer new value to mirrorless systems. The combination of superb optical performance with a level of compactness that is perfectly suited to smaller and lighter modern mirrorless cameras will bring you new opportunities for a perfect shot. Sigma is aware that in today’s world we have a wide range of camera choices, especially with the increase in mobile phone ownership. But with many photographers looking for something more than something that simply captures images when they choose to own a camera and lens, I series lenses offer the ultimate combination of superb optical performance, outstanding usability and compact form-factor. Sigma’s excellence in development and production technologies has been built up since our founding in 1961 and became increasingly sophisticated with the introduction of the Sigma Global Vision brand in 2012. With this as a base, Sigma has given careful thought to the quality of the products, the feeling of using it and the pleasure of owning it. This is how the I series was born.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eExceptional I series build quality with a compact form-factor\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll I series lenses have an all-metal construction. The precision-cut aluminum parts not only give the barrel a sleek, stylish finish, but provide superb durability that improves the quality of the entire product. Metal materials are also used in internal structures that slide with the operation ring for added robustness. These high-precision components crafted with Sigma’s cutting-edge metalworking technology are also used in Sigma’s CINE LENS lineup for professional cinematographers and provide a tactile, ergonomic feel that make the lens a pleasure to use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA smooth hairline cover ring is used between the focus and aperture rings to act as a finger hold when attaching and detaching the lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eMagnetic metal lens cap\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI series lenses are accompanied by a dedicated magnetic metal lens cap, in addition to a normal plastic cap. This dedicated metal cap clips to the front surface of the lens magnetically. It is no exaggeration to say that this meticulously crafted cap represents the finishing touch for the I series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eMagnetic metal lens cap holder LENS CAP HOLDER CH-11 (sold separately)\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen a cap is removed from the lens it should have a proper place where it can be kept. Using this as a starting point, a cap holder using the magnetic force of the dedicated cap was created.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the cap attached to the ring plate, and the plate clipped to a bag or belt, the cap is always within easy reach and is less likely to get lost.
