Thornfield HouseSigma 20mm F1.4 DG DN Art Lens for Sony E
Our Price: £899.00
The Sigma 20mm F1.4 DG DN Art for Sony E is a fast full-frame ultra-wide prime. It pairs a bright F1.4 aperture with a standard 82mm filter thread, and on an a7 IV, a7C II or a7R V it covers starry skies, landscapes, interiors and events.
Sigma designed it with astrophotography in mind. A lens heater retainer holds a dew strap in place, and as well as the front thread there is a rear filter holder for sheet filters.
There are 17 elements in 15 groups, including two SLD and three aspherical elements. One of them is a large double-sided aspherical element, which Sigma describes as the largest of its kind it has made.
An aperture ring with a lock and a click on/off switch, an assignable AFL button and a manual focus lock switch are on the barrel. The petal hood locks in place.
The body is dust- and splash-resistant, and the front element has a water- and oil-repellent coating that makes rain spots and fingerprints easier to wipe off.
This is for landscape and astro photographers who want F1.4 with ordinary screw-in filters. For the widest possible view, the Sigma 14mm F1.4 DG DN goes further, and the Sigma 20mm F2 DG DN is a much smaller and lighter 20mm for travel.

Yes. It was designed with night skies in mind, with an F1.4 aperture and a lens heater retainer.
The F1.4 gathers twice the light and is fully dust- and splash-resistant. The F2 weighs 370g against 630g and is far easier to travel with.
The 14mm is wider and specialised for astro. The 20mm is lighter, takes 82mm front filters and is more versatile for everyday landscapes.
82mm on the front, and there is a rear holder for sheet filters.
