The Ultimate Astrophotography Lens
The stars in the sky are a source of inspiration for viewers. On the other hand, the starry sky is a very demanding subject for a wide-angle lens, with its numerous tiny point light sources spread over the entire image.

Thanks to SIGMA’s latest technology, the lens combines an ultra-wide angle of 14mm with a maximum aperture of F1.4. In addition, SIGMA’s lens technology has achieved high optical performance with thorough correction of sagittal coma flare, specialized functions to support starry landscape photography, and high-speed AF with HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) linear motor. The Milky Way stretching across the night sky, twinkling stars emerging over ridgelines?The 14mm F1.4 DG DN | Art can make this a reality as a pictorial image that surpasses the actual photographic experience.
