Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Overview

Optical excellence with close-focusing capabilities, the L-mount 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens, from Sigma, is a short-telephoto prime optimized for macro use. With a minimum focusing distance of 11.6", and a 5.5" working distance, this lens offers a life-size, 1:1 reproduction ratio for accurate rendering of close-up subjects. Its optical design incorporates one SLD element, which also helps to realize high clarity and color accuracy by suppressing various aberrations and color fringing. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been applied, which controls flare and ghosting for greater contrast.

Benefitting handling, this lens sports a Hyper-Sonic Motor for quick and quiet AF performance and intuitive full-time manual focus control. A focus limiter switch also helps to boost focusing speed and precision, and there is also a customizable AFL button and dedicated focus mode switch. Additionally, the lens features a nine-blade rounded diaphragm for smooth bokeh quality and the lens housing is also weather-sealed to suit working in inclement conditions.

As part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and artistic applications.
Short-telephoto prime is designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras but can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 157.5mm equivalent focal length.
One Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element markedly reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved clarity and color accuracy.
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.
True macro design affords a life-size 1:1 maximum magnification along with an 11.6" minimum focusing distance, and a 5.5" minimum working distance, to suit working with close-up subjects.
The integrated HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) realizes quick and quiet autofocus performance, which is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance. The HSM also permits full-time manual focus control simply by rotating the focus ring at any time.
Focus limiter switch can be used to constrain the focusing range within three zones for faster, more responsive performance: 11.6" to 1.6', 1.6' to infinity, and 11.6" to infinity.
Manual aperture ring can be de-clicked for smooth, silent aperture switching to benefit video applications. Additionally, a dedicated aperture ring lock switch can also be employed to prevent accidental shifting of the aperture setting.
Built-in Autofocus-Lock (AFL) button which can be assigned additional functions widens the range of operations available on the lens.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
Weather-resistant construction with a brass bayonet that affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.
The L-mount version of this lens is compatible with optional TC-1411 and TC-2011 teleconverters, which can be used to further increase magnification without increasing the effective working distance. Additionally, this lens is compatible with the optional Sigma UD-11 USB Dock for fine-tuning different lens characteristics and updating its firmware.

Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Reviews

Works great with an adapter.

By Mr Walt.
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2026-05-18

Purchased this Sigma 105 macro for ultimate macro with my Leica M11. I was only able to get the lens with the Leica L-mount. The issue was to obtain an adapter for the L-mount Sigma lens to a M-mount for the Leica M-11. With lots of research I was able to obtain one on line. The system is work with the lens and camera set to manual. I’m delighted that I am able to use this lens on my Leica M-11.

My favorite lens — perfect for portraits and macro work

Wow — I’m absolutely in love with this lens. It has quickly become my favorite for bridal portraits and detail shots. The image quality is stunning: super sharp, beautiful background blur (bokeh), and accurate color reproduction. As a wedding photographer, I also use it for food photography thanks to its incredible macro capabilities. The build quality is excellent, and autofocus is fast and reliable. If you’re looking for a versatile and professional macro lens, this one is a must-have.

Does the L-mount version of this lens support Focus Ring ControlLinear Focus? This feature was recently added to the 70mm DG Art macro, but I can find zero information as to whether it is supported on this lens. There is a Sigma list of compatible lenses, dated 2/22, but the 70 macro, which IS supported, is not on the list, so the list is not to be trusted.
Asked by: David
No, as of February 2022 the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens for Leica L does not have the “Focus Ring Control” function that allows users to change the movement of the focus ring to either linear or non-linear.

Will adding one of the new Sigma teleconverters increase the magnification beyond 1:1?
Asked by: Ryan
Yes, adding the Sigma L-mount teleconverters to the Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens for Leica L will boost magnification. One can use the TC-1411 and TC-2011, increasing the maximum magnification to 1.4:1 and 2:1, respectively. Note this only applies to the L-mount version of the lens.
