Sigma Cine 35mm T1.5 FF Lens - Sony Mount

The T1.5 aperture allows for exceptional performance in low-light conditions and enables the creation of a shallow depth of field, which is crucial for isolating subjects and achieving a cinematic look.

While designed for cine applications, its optical quality and full-frame coverage mean it can produce excellent results in still photography, especially for manual focus enthusiasts.

'FF' stands for Full Frame, indicating that the lens is designed to cover a full-frame camera sensor.

Standardized color balance (CCI) ensures that the color rendition is consistent across different Sigma Cine lenses. This significantly simplifies color correction and grading in post-production, saving time and effort.

The product information does not specify weather sealing. It is recommended to protect the lens from harsh weather conditions and avoid use in rain or heavy dust.

The lens features a standardized 82mm filter thread size, allowing users to utilize the same filters across multiple Sigma Cine lenses.

The 180° focus throw allows for extremely precise and smooth manual focus adjustments, which is essential for professional cinematography, especially for complex focus pulls.

This is a prime cine lens and does not feature built-in image stabilization. Stabilization is typically handled by the camera body or through post-production software.

Ensure the camera is powered off before mounting. Align the lens mount index mark with the camera's mount index mark and rotate until it clicks into place. Check for any obstructions on the mount.

Confirm the lens is fully seated on the camera mount. Carefully adjust the focus ring, utilizing the 180° throw for precise focusing. Ensure the correct manual focus mode is selected on the camera.

Verify that the lens's color balance setting (CCI) is consistent with other Sigma Cine lenses used. Ensure camera white balance settings are static and appropriate for the scene.

Check for any external obstructions around the focus ring. If the issue persists, it may require professional servicing. Avoid forcing the ring.
