Sigma Art 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM 24mm
The wide f/1.4 aperture, weather-sealed build, and 15-element optical design featuring aspherical and low-dispersion glass deliver sharp, high-contrast images across the full-frame Sony E-mount. Sigma’s Art series construction and HSM autofocus rival first-party lenses at a significantly lower cost, offering a rare combination of premium build and value for a fast prime. This lens is best for astrophotographers and nightscape shooters who need a bright, coma-corrected 24mm focal length that performs wide open.
