Product Details
Sigma 323965 85mm F1.2 DG Art Lens for Sony E-Mount
Sigma 85mm F1.2 DG | Art: Portrait Power with Unmatched Bokeh
Designed for full-frame mirrorless cameras, the Sigma 85mm F1.2 DG | Art lens brings together exceptional rendering and a bright F1.2 aperture in a portable medium-telephoto design. At 85mm, a focal length widely favored for portrait photography, this Art lens delivers the subject separation, shallow depth of field, and rich background blur that help portraits stand out with striking dimensionality. The 13-blade diaphragm supports smooth, near-circular bokeh, while advanced optical elements work to suppress chromatic aberration, spherical aberration, and sagittal coma flare for crisp, detailed results.
Built for Speed, Precision, and Creative Control
The Sigma 85mm F1.2 DG | Art is engineered to perform for both stills and video with fast, quiet autofocus driven by dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator). Even at its maximum aperture, the lens is designed to track subjects reliably and capture sharp focus in demanding shooting conditions. Sigma also minimized focus breathing, making this lens a strong choice for video creators who want a more natural-looking focus shift. With an aperture ring, aperture ring lock switch, click switch, and two customizable AFL buttons, the lens offers the kind of hands-on control photographers expect from a professional Art series lens.
Compact Art Lens Design with Professional Durability
Despite its F1.2 brightness, this 85mm prime is the smallest and lightest in its class for an AF 85mm F1.2 interchangeable lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras, helping reduce fatigue during long shoots and mobile work. Its high-precision construction uses lightweight, high-strength materials such as TSC for the rigidity and durability associated with Sigma Art lenses. A dust- and splash-resistant structure plus a water- and oil-repellent coating on the front element add confidence when shooting outdoors. For photographers looking for a Sigma portrait lens that combines stunning image quality, reliable handling, and impressive mobility, the 85mm F1.2 DG | Art is a compelling creative tool.
Features
Overwhelming resolving power
In addition to two SLD glass elements, glass with high anomalous dispersion is used to suppress the axial chromatic aberration inherent to large -aperture lenses to the utmost limit. Aspherical lens elements further thoroughly correct spherical aberration a nd sagittal coma flare. The lens boasts reliably high resolving power from the maximum aperture, fully bringing out the rendering that only F1.2 can offer. It captures every detail of the subject’s expression and texture, taking the quality of both photogr aphs and video to a higher level.
Beautiful bokeh that makes the subject stand out
The combination of a large -aperture F1.2 and a medium-telephoto 85mm delivers an extremely shallow depth of field and beautiful, rich bokeh. The adoption of a 13-blade diaphragm maintains a near-circular bokeh even when the aperture is stopped down. Natura l bokeh rendering that suppresses color bleeding and double -line bokeh makes the subject stand out impressively, bringing overwhelming three- dimensionality and immersion to portraits and video work
Designed to minimize 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.
Fast and quiet autofocusing with dual HLA
The fast and quiet AF driven by the dual HLA (High -response Linear Actuator) delivers reliable tracking performance for both stills and video. Even with the shallow depth of field of the maximum F1.2 aperture, it captures the subject accurately, enabling smooth and precise shooting in any scene.
The pride of a creative tool: the high build quality of the Art line
By constructing the lens from high-precision parts made of lightweight, high-strength materials such as TSC1, it offers the rigidity and durability of the Art line without compromising portability, along with the build quality to serve as a reliable photographic tool over the long term.
Designed to minimize focus breathing
Optimization of the focus group arrangement and aspherical shape significantly suppresses focus breathing. The change in angle of view due to focus shift is minimized, creating a natural -looking focus shift when recording video
Various shooting assist functions
The lens is equipped with an AFL button in two locations, which can be assigned to a range of functions via the menu on selected cameras. In addition to the aperture ring, the lens is equipped with an aperture ring lock switch2 and a click switch to turn the click on and off.
Dust - and splash -resistant structure3 and water- and oil-repellent coating
In addition to a dust - and splash -resistant structure, the frontmost surface of the lens has a water - and oil- repellent coating applied, so that the lens can be used safely even in harsh outdoor environments
Footnotes
1TSC (Thermally Stable Composite) is a type of polycarbonate with a thermal expansion rate similar to that of aluminum.It has a high affinity to metal parts, which contributes to high quality product manufacturing
2If you turn it on in position A, the aperture ring will be locked in position A. If you turn it on in a position other than A, it will be locked in the range from open to minimumaperture, and it will not be possible to turn it to position A
3The product is designed to be dust- and splash -resistant but is not waterproof. When using the lens near water, etc., take care not to allow large amounts of water to splash on it. If water gets inside the lens, it may cause a major malfunction and render the lens unrepairable
