Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens for Sony E-Mount and L-Mount

Sigma has announced the new Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art lens for Sony E and Leica L mount cameras. The US price is $799 and it is now available for pre-order at B&H, Adorama. Shipping is scheduled to start in late October 2020.

Sigma 105mm f/2.8 DG DN Macro Art Lens is a high-performance, mid-telephoto macro lens designed from the ground-up for mirrorless cameras. Available in Sony E-mount and L-Mount, this impressive optic offers superb image quality, fast AF and an impressive feature-set. It is equally well-suited to close-up macro work and a range of other photo and video applications including portraiture and weddings. The quality, functionality and versatility of this lens make it a must-own option for mirrorless photographers.

This all-new 105mm lens is the first Art line macro lens designed specifically for mirrorless cameras, and brings to the table a range of advanced functionality including an aperture ring with de-click and lock functions, a customisable AFL button, dust- and splash-proof construction and a focus limiter switch. Its optical performance goes far beyond what one might expect of a mid-telephoto macro lens.
