BH #SI5614F • MFR #351975
Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens (FUJIFILM X)
Key Features
  • APS-C | f/1.4 to f/16
  • 84mm (Full-Frame Equivalent)
  • Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm
  • Stepping Motor AF System
An especially sleek portrait-length prime, the 56mm f/1.4 DC DN is part of Sigma's Contemporary series of lenses, and is designed for use with APS-C-format FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras. The lens is characterized by its bright f/1.4 maximum aperture, which suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers improved control over depth of field for isolating subjects and working with selective focus techniques. The optical design utilizes two aspherical elements and one SLD element, which help to reduce both spherical and chromatic aberrations for greater sharpness and clarity. A super multilayer coating has also been applied to suppress flare and ghosting in order to achieve more contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions. Complementing the optics is a stepping AF motor, which suits both photo and video applications due to its quick, precise, and near-silent performance.

The Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for FUJIFILM X performs very well on the FUJIFILM X-T5 Mirrorless Camera. The FUJIFILM XF 56mm f/1.2 R Lens would be half a stop faster.

Asked by: Bryan
BH #SI5614EFM is the EF-M mount version of this lens and is not compatible with the Sony A6000. For the A6000 you will need BH #SI5614DCSE which is the Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens (Sony E) and the proper version for the Sony A6000. https://bhpho.to/2PRFNe2
