Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens

In 2019, Sigma released the 35mm F1.2 DG DN | Art, the world's first 35mm mirrorless camera lens with an F1.2 aperture. Six years later, Sigma is proud to introduce its successor, the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for .

Designed and engineered with Sigma's latest technology, the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for offers not only improved optical performance, but also greatly enhanced portability thanks to a significant size reduction of approximately 30%. With its improved design, the lens delivers unparalleled rendering power, high-resolution clarity and large, beautiful bokeh in a more portable form. Focus breathing is also effectively minimised, ensuring outstanding results not only in still photography, but also when shooting video.

The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for is an exceptional, uncompromising lens that achieves the perfect balance of optical performance, brightness, compact size, light weight and ease of use.

Extreme Suppression of Chromatic Aberration and Sagittal Coma Flare

The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for offers even better optical performance than its predecessor, with brilliant clarity throughout the image, even at the fully open F1.2 aperture. The use of SLD glass, highly refractive glass with high anomalous dispersion, and four glass-molded double-sided aspherical elements thoroughly corrects axial chromatic aberration and sagittal coma flare, while significantly reducing the lens size.

Brilliant Sharpness and the Large, Beautiful Bokeh of an F1.2 Aperture

In designing the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for , Sigma paid special attention to correcting the various optical aberrations that affect image quality. Thanks to these meticulous efforts, the lens delivers brilliant sharpness of the in-focus plane and beautiful bokeh that suppresses colour bleeding and double line bokeh. Photographers will appreciate the rich, expressive rendering qualities and the beautiful interplay between the in-focus and out-of-focus areas, especially when shooting wide open at F1.2.

Designed to Minimise Focus Breathing

Optimisation of the focus group arrangement and aspherical shape significantly suppresses focus breathing. As a result, changes in field of view are effectively suppressed when the focusing distance is changed, making the lens an ideal choice for professional video use.

Designed to Minimise Flare and Ghosting

Flare and ghosting, which reduce image quality, are addressed under all conditions of incident light, based on the most advanced simulation technology. High backlight resistance enables clear and sharp images under any lighting conditions.

Better Performance, Smaller Size and Lighter Weight Thanks to the Floating Focus System

The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for achieves even better optical performance than its predecessor while being approximately 30% lighter and 20% shorter. A key factor behind this is the adoption of a floating focus design: by allowing the lens groups to move independently of each other, the weight of each lens group has been significantly reduced while simultaneously enhancing optical performance. Additionally, the improved optical design features four aspherical lens elements, high refractive index glass, and thinner lens elements, further contributing to its exceptional performance.

Fast and Quiet Autofocusing with Dual HLA System

The dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) system drives each of the two focus groups by an individual linear motor. In addition, the use of multiple magnets in each motor allows for a compact focus unit design without sacrificing high thrust. Compared to conventional cam-driven systems, the dual HLA system is not only significantly lighter, but also guarantees fast, reliable and quiet autofocusing.

A Long-lasting, Reliable Tool for Photographic Expression

Manufactured and assembled in Aizu, Japan, using high-precision parts made of aluminium, TSC 1 and other materials, the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for is a sophisticated and durable photographic tool designed according to Sigma's Art line specifications.

TSC (Thermally Stable Composite) is a type of polycarbonate with a thermal expansion rate similar to that of aluminium. It has a high affinity to metal parts, which contributes to high quality product manufacturing.

A Wealth of Shooting Assist Functions

The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for features an AFL button that can be assigned a variety of functions on compatible cameras. In addition, the aperture ring can be locked with the dedicated lock switch and changed from clicked to declicked with the dedicated click switch.

Dust and Splash-resistant Structure 1 and Water and Oil-repellent Coating

In addition to a dust and splash-resistant structure, the front element of the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for features a water- and oil-repellent coating, allowing photographers to shoot without concerns even in harsh outdoor environments.

The structure is designed to be dust and splash resistant, but not waterproof. Be careful not to bring the lens in contact with a large amount of water. Water inside the lens may cause major damage and even render the lens unrepairable.

Petal-type Hood with Locking Mechanism

The Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II Art Lens for comes with a dedicated petal-type hood that shields the front element from stray light to reduce the chance of unwanted flare. The hood attaches securely to the lens with a locking mechanism.
