Our take on the Sigma 45mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E - 360965

The Sigma 45mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary is a compact full-frame prime for Sony E-mount cameras. It is built around smooth, rounded bokeh and a close 9.5-inch minimum focus distance rather than a wide aperture, so it suits snapshots, tabletop shots and everyday carry. Its stepping motor gives fast, quiet autofocus, and the barrel is weather-sealed. Against faster 50mm f/1.8 and f/1.4 rivals it gives up light gathering and shallow depth of field, but it is smaller, focuses closer and renders softer out-of-focus areas.

About the Sigma 45mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E - 360965

The Sigma 45mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary is a normal-length prime lens for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. It is part of Sigma's Contemporary line and is built to balance size and weight with optical performance. On APS-C models it gives a 68mm equivalent focal length.

The optical design controls spherical aberrations. This produces soft, rounded bokeh and adds a three-dimensional look to the subject. A rounded seven-blade diaphragm adds to the smooth bokeh. The constant f/2.8 maximum aperture gives control over depth of field. The 9.5" minimum focusing distance suits snapshots and tabletop photos.

A stepping motor drives fast, precise and near-silent autofocus. It works with features such as Face/Eye Detection AF and during video shooting. Full-time manual focus is also available. The brass bayonet mount has rubber sealing that makes it dust- and splash-resistant. The included lens hood protects the front element and helps prevent flare.

Questions and answers

Is the Sigma 45mm f/2.8 good for portraits?
It can work for environmental portraits, but f/2.8 gives less background blur than a 50mm f/1.8. Its smooth bokeh helps, and the close focus distance lets you get near your subject.
How is it different from a 50mm f/1.8?
The 50mm f/1.8 gathers more light and blurs backgrounds more. The Sigma is smaller, focuses much closer at 9.5 inches, is weather-sealed and is tuned for soft bokeh over speed.
Does it work on APS-C Sony cameras?
Yes, it mounts on Sony E-mount APS-C bodies, where it behaves like a short telephoto. It is designed for full-frame sensors, so you use only the center of the image circle.
What is in the box?
The lens, the LH577-01 lens hood, a 55mm front cap, a rear cap for Sony E mount and a limited one-year warranty.
Is it weather-sealed?
Yes, the barrel has a weather-sealed construction to resist dust and moisture. It is not waterproof, so heavy rain still calls for care.
How close can it focus?
The minimum focusing distance is 9.5 inches, close enough for tabletop and detail shots that most 50mm primes cannot match.
