Hot 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E Wide Angle

With a field of view equivalent to 35mm on a full-frame camera, the 23mm F1.4 DC DN | C adds this classic focal length to APS-C mirrorless cameras

This is the fourth F1.4 DC DN prime lens, joining the 16mm F1.4 DC DN | C, 30mm F1.4 DC DN | C, and the 56mm F1.4 DC DN | C lens. The DC DN line also includes the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary Zoom lens.

To take advantage of the mobility of APS-C mirrorless cameras, the lens body is compact and lightweight, with a weight of 330g, length of 78.9mm, and filter diameter of 52mm, offering exceptional imaging performance when paired with compact APS-C mirrorless camera bodies including the Sony a6000 series and Fujifilm X-S10, along with high-megapixel, full-frame cameras in APS-C crop mode such as the 61MP SIGMA fp L.

AF is driven by a quiet, high-speed stepping motor for swift, silent operation for both still and video capture, and excellent flare/ghosting resistance makes it ideal for real-world shooting conditions. The overall optical performance is similar to the 56mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lens and 35mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art lens.

The lens is ideal for landscapes, journalism, everyday photography, and so much more; with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:7.3 and a minimum focusing distance of just under 10 inches. The 9-blade rounded diaphragm allows for creative bokeh effects. The mount is dust- and splash-resistant.
