The Sigma 35mm T1.5 FF High-Speed Prime (Sony E, Feet) is designed for cinema applications, bringing together the exceptional optics and mechanics from their Global Vision still photography lineup into a cine-friendly package. This 35mm Sony E-Mount prime lens serves as a versatile mid-range focal length within the series, providing full-frame sensor coverage, compatibility with 6-8K resolutions, and a fast T1.5 aperture—all contained within a compact and lightweight housing. With electronic contacts in the lens mount, the lens communicates vital data to the camera body for enhanced integration and control.
Streamlined Workflow and Build
A shared 95mm front diameter across the entire lens family, along with similar dimensions and gearing positions, ensures that mounting accessories like matte boxes, follow focuses, or lens motors is both quick and straightforward. Consistency in these physical attributes helps streamline setup and maintain efficiency on set.
Image Quality and Performance
The lens features a 9-bladed iris, producing attractive, creamy bokeh in out-of-focus areas. Ghosting and flaring are kept to a minimum, and every lens in the range is engineered for standardized color reproduction, making color correction easier when using multiple lenses during a production. Each lens provides consistent gear placement and a broad 180° focus barrel rotation for precise focusing.
Professional Cinema Features
The Sigma FF High Speed Primes are equipped with a clickless iris featuring easy-to-read, linear aperture markings. Each gear ring includes built-in dampeners for smooth, silent operation. They utilize industry-standard 0.8 module gear pitch, and their markings are engraved for lasting durability. Focus measurements are indicated in feet, with select focus marks enhanced in luminous paint for clear visibility in low-light environments.
Durability and Mount Options
A built-in support foot on the robust, dust- and water-resistant metal body helps reduce strain on your camera’s lens mount during use. Additionally, for those who need flexibility to use the lens on multiple camera systems, Canon EF and Sony E mount versions can be converted from one mount type to the other at authorized Sigma service centers (note: this conversion is not available for PL mounts).
