{"product_id":"sigma-135mm-f-1-4-dg-art-lens-sony-e","title":"Sigma 135mm f\/1.4 DG DN Art Portrait Prime Lens (Sony E)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Sigma 135mm f\/1.4 DG DN Art is a benchmark portrait and short telephoto prime for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, combining one of the most effective focal lengths for subject isolation with an f\/1.4 maximum aperture that produces background rendering of extraordinary quality. The 135mm perspective compresses space in a way that flatters human subjects, and at f\/1.4 the transition from sharp to soft is so gradual and smooth that subjects appear to float against their environment — a characteristic that defines the appeal of this lens for wedding, fashion, editorial, and studio photographers worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe optical formula is constructed from 17 elements in 13 groups, incorporating two aspherical elements and four FLD (F Low Dispersion) elements — Sigma's highest-grade glass, equivalent in performance to fluorite — that work together to suppress chromatic aberration, colour fringing, and spherical aberration from f\/1.4 through the full aperture range. A 13-bladed rounded diaphragm produces near-perfectly circular bokeh highlights at every aperture, and Super Multi-Layer Coating optimises backlight resistance to minimise flare and ghosting when shooting into the light. Lens elements are arranged specifically to reduce focus breathing, making this lens equally capable as a cinema and broadcast optic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAutofocus is driven by Sigma's dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) system — electromagnetic linear motors that operate without gears, producing ultra-fast, near-silent focus movement that responds instantly to the subject-recognition systems of Sony Alpha bodies. A water- and oil-repellent coating on the front element protects against the elements and makes cleaning straightforward in field conditions, and the internal construction shields all optical elements from dust and moisture ingress.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAvailable at Foto Digital World in Pretoria with nationwide delivery across South Africa.
