It is from Sigma’s Contemporary I Series, which focuses on small, solidly built primes that offer great handling, portability and high optical performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eWith a slightly longer focal length than standard primes, the 65mm creates a tighter field of view that is ideal for portraits, as well as scenes and subjects where some background separation is preferable. The f\/2 aperture supports controlled depth of field while keeping the lens compact, and a close focusing distance of 55cm with 1:6.8 magnification allows for details without needing a dedicated macro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"mText\"\u003eThis version includes Sigma’s shortened DG naming convention, which reflects the mirrorless-only lens production going forwards. It is well suited to photographers looking for a compact short-telephoto prime that combines reach, image quality and everyday usability on Sony cameras..\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e Key Features of the Sigma AF 65mm f\/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens For Sony E-Mount\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Full-frame 65mm prime lens for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Compact short-telephoto focal length \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Solid metal construction \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e f\/2 aperture supports subject separation and low light \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Close focusing to 55cm with 1:6.8 magnification \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Quiet autofocus for stills and video \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Nine-blade rounded aperture diaphragm \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Compatible with 62mm front filters \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e Knurled controls with weather sealed mount \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"gText\"\u003e\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e Optical and image quality \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe 65mm focal length provides a tighter perspective than standard primes, helping separate the subject while still maintaining a very natural look. This makes it well suited to portraits, details and scenes where backgrounds melt away. Image rendering is consistent across the frame, with good control of distortion and high sharpness for everyday shooting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eThe optical design consists of 12 elements in nine groups, including one SLD element and two aspherical elements. This helps to suppress aberrations and maintain clarity and contrast, even when shooting at wider apertures. \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eClose focusing allows subjects to be framed more tightly than many traditional short-telephoto lenses, which is useful for small details, textures and close-ups. \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003cdiv\u003e\n    \u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e Autofocus operation \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eAutofocus is quiet and accurate, supporting both stills photography and video recording.
