Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art Lens – L-Mount

Flagship wide-angle prime with unrivalled sharpness, beautiful bokeh, and professional design

The Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art (L-Mount) is the next evolution of Sigma’s groundbreaking large-aperture wide-angle lens. As the successor to the world’s first 35mm mirrorless F1.2 lens, this second-generation model offers refined optical performance, reduced size and weight, and enhanced functionality – all while maintaining the exceptional expressive power that made the original a favourite among professionals.

With crystal-clear rendering at F1.2, large and beautifully rounded bokeh, and a significantly more portable design, the Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art is the ultimate wide-angle prime lens for full-frame L-Mount cameras.

• ⚡ Fast, silent autofocus driven by a dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) system

• 💧 Dust- and splash-resistant structure with water- and oil-repellent coating

• 🎚️ Aperture ring with click/de-click and lock switches for professional handling

World-Class Rendering at F1.2

The Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art delivers crystal-clear sharpness and expressive rendering even wide open at F1.2.

• Advanced optics: 1 SLD glass element, 4 aspherical elements, and high-refractive-index glass correct axial chromatic aberration, sagittal coma flare, and colour fringing.

• Beautiful bokeh: Wide-aperture design ensures soft, rounded defocus areas with minimal colour bleeding or double lines.

• Professional clarity: Every detail is rendered with precision, making it an ideal lens for portraits, weddings, documentary, and low-light scenes.

Optimised for Video and Hybrid Creators

This lens isn’t just for stills – it’s tailor-made for hybrid shooters:

• Minimal focus breathing: Optimised focus group arrangement suppresses field-of-view shifts during refocusing.

• Silent dual HLA autofocus system: Ensures smooth, accurate, and nearly silent operation, essential for video recording.

• Cinematic bokeh: The large F1.2 aperture gives videographers stunning subject separation and creamy background blur.

Smaller, Lighter, Smarter

Compared to the first-generation 35mm F1.2, this updated version is:

• ~30% lighter (755g)

• ~20% shorter (111.4mm)

• Easier to handle for handheld, gimbal, and travel use.

This improvement is achieved through a floating focus design, which allows lens groups to move independently, reducing bulk while maintaining exceptional image quality.

Autofocus Redefined – Dual HLA System

The dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) system drives two separate focus groups with dedicated motors.

• Faster and more accurate than cam-driven systems.

• Lightweight focus units designed with multiple magnets ensure high thrust without increasing size.

• Delivers professional-grade AF performance for stills, action, and video.
