I series Premium Compact Primes for mirrorless users
The Sigma I series features full-frame-compatible lenses that offer mirrorless users a new and better alternative, both in the experience of shooting with the lens and in the impressive results it is able to achieve.
One of the key advantages of mirrorless cameras is their smaller form-factor, and the Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver is designed to be perfectly matched to these more compact systems without sacrificing performance. This combination of superb optical quality with exceptional portability, not previously possible with DSLR systems, will bring new opportunities to this and future generations of photographers.
Simultaneously, Sigma is aware that, in this day and age when we have such huge diversity when it comes to what we use to photograph, as represented by smartphones, people look for something more than a mere act of “taking pictures” when they choose to own a camera and lenses.
Sigma’s excellence in development and processing technologies has been built up since it was founded in 1961, and has become further sophisticated with the introduction of the Sigma Global Vision in 2012. With this as a base Sigma has given careful thought to how photographers use and enjoy their lenses, including optical design, advanced functionality, build quality and the experience of picking up and using the lens, and with all of this carefully considered the I series was born.
New standards of optical performance for the Contemporary line
The Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver, like the Sigma 35mm F2 DG | Contemporary and the Sigma 65mm F2 DG | Contemporary , combines the highest level of optical performance even at its maximum aperture of F2 and a well-balanced body.
The Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver uses two SLD glass elements and one FLD glass element to correct axial chromatic aberration, which is a particular concern with bright lenses. The Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver also incorporates two high-precision glass-molded aspherical elements, made possible by the processing technology of Sigma’s sole production facility in Aizu. This has enabled the total number of lens elements to be kept down and the size and weight of the lens to be reduced, while providing excellent correction of various aberrations.
In anticipation of wide-angle lens applications, Sigma’s optical designers have ensured the lens resolution is extremely high, and is uniform from the center to the periphery of the image. Sagittal coma flare is also well suppressed, giving the lens a high degree of rendering power that makes it ideal for night sky photography.
The AF drive system incorporates a quiet, high-speed stepping motor. This allows photographers to capture every detail of the spacious 24mm scene with light AF.
Use of multiple high-precision aspherical glass molded lenses
The surface of molds for glass molding, which is a process that forms optical components by pressing glass materials at high temperatures, requires ultra-high precision. Sigma uses high-precision molds whose surfaces are controlled with an accuracy of ±5 nanometers (0.000005 mm) or smaller. High precision aspherical glass molded lenses archives both good aberration correction and compact lens size.
Exceptional I series build quality with a compact form-factor
The Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver has 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 line-up for professional cinematographers and provide a tactile, ergonomic feel that make the lens a pleasure to use.
The cover ring between the focus ring and the aperture ring has hairline processing that is also used for the rear cylinder of the Art line. This covering functions as a finger hold when attaching or detaching the lens.
Magnetic metal lens cap
The Sigma 24mm f/2 DG Contemporary Lens for L Mount Silver is 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.
