Both fast and wide, the Nikon F-mount 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM from Sigma is a unique wide-angle prime designed to
produce high-resolution, well-corrected imagery. As part of the Art line of
lenses, this lens has a focus on image quality and rendering, and utilizes both
FLD and SLD glass elements to control chromatic aberrations and color fringing
for notable clarity. Four aspherical elements, including the front
large-diameter precision-molded glass element, also contribute to reducing
distortion and spherical aberrations for improved sharpness and accuracy.
Additionally, a Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to individual
elements to suppress lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast when working
in strong lighting. Well-suited to astrophotography and low-light outdoor
shooting, this lens presents a unique blend of a broad perspective and fast,
flexible performance.
Complementing the optical performance is an equally adept Hyper
Sonic Motor, which provides fast, smooth, and near-silent autofocus
performance. This focusing motor also enables full-time manual focus override
at any time just by rotating the focus ring for refined manual control and
focusing as close as 10.6". The lens barrel is constructed using a
Thermally Stable Composite material, which supports working in a wide variety
of temperatures and conditions, and the lens mount is constructed from brass
for long-term durability and mounting accuracy. Additionally, this lens is also
compatible with the optional Sigma USB Dock for fine-tuned control over
focusing parameters and other lens characteristics.
·
As part of the Art
line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve
truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and
artistic applications.
·
Prime wide-angle
lens is designed for full-frame Nikon F-mount DSLRs, however it can also be
used on APS-C models where it will provide a 22.4mm equivalent focal length.
·
Bright f/1.8
maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low and difficult lighting
conditions.
·
Three F Low
Dispersion (FLD) and four Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements are featured in
the optical design, and help to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations
for improved clarity and color accuracy.
·
Four aspherical
elements, including one large, 80mm-diameter precision-molded glass aspherical
element, help to minimize distortion and spherical aberrations for improved
sharpness.
·
A Super Multi-Layer
Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and
ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery,
even in backlit conditions.
·
The integrated HSM
(Hyper Sonic Motor) realizes quick and quiet autofocusing, which is further
complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing
performance. The HSM also permits full-time manual focus control simply by
rotating the focus ring at any time.
·
The lens is
constructed using a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) material, along with
traditional metals, for greater precision and use in wide temperature
variations.
·
The bayonet mount
is constructed from brass for ensured accuracy and durability. Additionally,
rubber sealing is incorporated in the mount design to render it dust- and
splash-resistant.
· This lens is compatible with the optional Sigma USB Dock for fine-tuning different lens characteristics and updating its firmware.
