The Sigma 56mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary is a fast prime for Sony E-mount APS-C cameras, giving an 84mm full-frame equivalent field of view. That makes it a natural portrait lens, and the f/1.4 aperture gives shallow depth of field and usable light in dim rooms. It is small and light for its speed, with a stepping motor for quiet autofocus. Reviewers rate it sharp wide open and call it one of the best value portrait primes for APS-C, though it has no optical stabilization and is not meant for full-frame bodies.
