As part of the Contemporary line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve a balance between convenience and performance, and meshes a compact, lightweight build and versatile handling with notable optical attributes.
Normal-length prime is designed for APS-C-format Canon EF-M-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 48mm equivalent focal length.
Bright f/1.4 maximum aperture excels in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for achieving selective focus effects.
Two aspherical elements and one high-refractive index element are used to limit distortion and spherical aberrations and also contribute to greater overall sharpness and accurate rendering.
A Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.
A stepping AF motor benefits both photographers and videographers with its fast, precise, and near-silent performance.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
Constructed using a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) material for greater precision and use in wide temperature variations. Additionally, a brass bayonet affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.

Asked by: B.R.
Lenses with a canon EF-M mount cannot be used on the canon SL2 camera body. There is no adapter to use these kind of lenses. The Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC HSM Art Lens for Canon EF is compatible with the Canon SL2 and is a good choice. Here is the link: https://bhpho.to/3Cjz0SL

No, the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Canon EF-M does not work on the Canon R7. And there are no adapters made. That lens is not RF or EF/EF-S, but is EF-M.

Does this lens fit the Canon EOS 80D?
Asked by: Kat
No it won't fit on an 80D. It's an EF-M mount lens and you need an EF mount lens for your 80D. Sigma makes tons of lenses for EF mounts, do a search.
