Product Information

Full details

This Sigma FF High-Speed Prime 7-Lens Kit is designed for professional filmmakers using Canon EF mount cameras seeking exceptional image quality and versatility for full-frame capture. Its key benefit is providing a comprehensive range of focal lengths (14mm, 20mm, 24mm, 35mm, 50mm, 85mm, 135mm) with consistent T1.5/T2 apertures and standardized color balance, enabling high-resolution 6K-8K video production. A potential caveat for some users might be the fixed prime nature of the lenses, requiring physical movement for shot composition.

FAQs

What cameras are compatible with this lens kit?

This kit is designed for cameras with the Canon EF mount. This includes full-frame Canon EOS DSLRs and Cinema EOS cameras, as well as any other camera systems that utilize the Canon EF mount.

What is the difference between T-stop and f-stop?

T-stop (Transmission stop) measures the actual amount of light transmitted through the lens, accounting for light loss within the lens elements. An f-stop is a theoretical ratio. T-stops are generally considered more accurate for cinematography, especially when matching exposure between different lenses.

Can I use these lenses for still photography?

Yes, these lenses are designed to deliver high resolution suitable for still photography and can be used on compatible Canon EF mount cameras. However, their primary design and features are optimized for video production.

How do I achieve consistent color between shots?

The lenses are designed with a standardized color balance. Ensure your in-camera white balance is consistent, and utilize the consistent color rendition across the set for easier grading in post-production.

What is the front lens diameter for accessory compatibility?

All lenses in this kit feature a standardized 95mm front diameter, making them compatible with most professional matte boxes and other front-mounted accessories.

Are these lenses zoom or prime lenses?

These are prime lenses, meaning each lens has a fixed focal length. To change your field of view, you must physically move the camera closer or further from the subject.

What is the warranty period for these lenses?

Warranty information typically varies by region and retailer. Please refer to the product documentation or the point of purchase for specific warranty details provided by SIGMA CORPORATION OF AMERICA.

Troubleshooting

Lens not recognized by camera

Ensure the lens is securely mounted to the Canon EF mount. Check camera body for any debris in the mount. Verify the camera is set to manual focus mode if electronic communication is an issue.

Image appears soft or out of focus

Manually adjust the focus ring until the image is sharp. Ensure the focus throw is set correctly for your desired depth of field. Check for any protective film or smudges on the lens element.

Inconsistent color between lenses

Confirm that the 'Standardized Color Balance' feature is relevant to your specific lens model and shooting workflow. Ensure consistent white balance settings are applied in-camera or during post-production.

Focus ring feels stiff or loose

This could indicate a need for professional servicing. Avoid forcing the ring. Contact SIGMA support or a qualified lens technician.

Aperture not changing image brightness

Ensure the aperture ring is properly set and that there is no electronic communication issue with the camera if aperture control is camera-dependent. For manual cine lenses, adjust aperture directly on the lens.

Cons

  1. Mounting: Align the lens mounting index with the corresponding index on your Canon EF mount camera body. Rotate the lens clockwise until it clicks securely into place.

  3. Accessories: The 95mm front diameter is designed for compatibility with standard cine matte boxes and follow focus systems. Attach these accessories to your camera rig as per their instructions.

Compatibility:

  • Mount: This kit is specifically designed for cameras featuring the Canon EF lens mount. It is compatible with full-frame Canon EOS DSLR and Cinema EOS cameras, as well as third-party cameras that utilize the Canon EF mount.

Care:

  • Cleaning Lenses: Use a blower brush to remove dust. For smudges, use a lens cleaning solution with a microfiber cloth. Clean gently from the center outwards.
  • Storage: Store lenses in their protective cases in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and dust.
  • Handling: Always handle lenses by their bodies, avoiding direct contact with the glass elements. Use lens caps when not in use.
