In the era of mirrorless cameras, the balance between performance and size is even more crucial. There is a growing demand for “compact, high-performance, high-quality lenses” and Sigma responds to this call with the introduction of the “I” series of full-frame mirrorless exclusive lenses.
Available for L-Mount and Sony E mount, DG indicates full-frame and DN indicates mirrorless-exclusive de-sign.
The I Series represent a new option: Premium Compact Primes that are stylish in appearance with impressive specifications and optical performance.
Built to the mechanical and operational standards of Sigma Cine lenses, in compact mirrorless form, the I se-ries have outstanding feel and tone in the hand. The feel of the manual focus ring, aperture ring, and switches embody true functional beauty.
Two new I series lenses are being announced:
- 24mm F2 DG DN | Contemporary
- 90mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary
The two new lenses join the The 24mm F3.5 DG DN | Contemporary, 35mm F2 DG DN | Contemporary, 45mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary, and 65mm F2 DG DN | Contemporary in the I series.
Key I series Lens Features:
• All I Series lenses feature an all-metal body, with high-precision metal internal parts, and a metal hood.
• All I Series lenses feature a manual aperture ring and knurled surfaces for an enjoyable tactile expe-rience.
• The F2 I series lenses have comparable MTF chart optical performance to SIGMA DSLR F1.4 Art lenses
• The 24mm F2, feature a newly-designed arc-type auto/manual focus switch, a dust and splash-resistant ount, a knurled lens hood, and magnetic lens caps, as do the 35mm F2 and 65mm F2.
• The 24mm F3.5 shares 055 filter thread diameter with the 45mm F2.8 DG DN C and the new 90mm F2.8 DG DN C, which makes for a very compact system that can accept the same filters and lens caps*, perfect for travel, adventure, etc where compactness and versatility really matter.
• An optional magnetic cap holder (CH-11) features a mini-carabiner for clipping on to a camera bag, jacket or belt loop, and has a donut-style center hole to easily pop off a cap when it is time to place back on the lens.
*45mm is not compatible with the metallic magnetic caps.
Additional Notes:
• The currently released I series lenses are in the Contemporary line, however there may be potential for Art and Sports lenses to be similarly constructed.
• The I series designation / nickname represents the build characteristics and styling of these new lenses. It is not a new product line alongside Art, Sports and Contemporary.
