Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art Series Wide-Angle Lens for Canon

The World’s First f/1.8 Wide-Angle Prime Lens

The Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art is the world's first f/1.8 prime lens at the 14mm focal length. This fast wide prime features the same large aspherical element touted in the Sigma 12-24mm F4 Art to control distortion and create stunning imagery. An updated Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) provides fast and accurate autofocus while 3 Premium FLD and 4 SLD glass elements control chromatic aberration and sagittal coma flare. Building on the highly reputable Art line, the Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art is designed to resolve the latest high megapixel DSLR sensors.  Like each and every Global Vision Lens, the Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art is handcrafted at our single factory in Aizu, Japan and undergoes individual evaluation before leaving Sigma’s facility.

Minimised Chromatic Aberrations and distortion

Three FLD (“F” Low Dispersion) glass elements and four SLD (Super Low Dispersion) glass elements help minimise transverse chromatic aberration, which tends to be noticeable in shots taken with ultra-wide-angle lenses. The result is outstanding image quality from the centre of the image to the edges. Serving as the front lens element, the large 80 mm diameter precision-moulded glass aspherical lens effectively minimises distortion. Offering excellent peripheral brightness, this lens delivers outstanding image quality from the centre to the edges.

Distinctive and Beautiful Bokeh

Even at the 14mm ultra-wide-angle of view, the f/1.8 aperture makes possible a very shallow depth of field with the subject standing out dramatically against a bokeh background. It’s the unique mode of expression that only a large-aperture lens can deliver.
