Offering the highest level of image quality, this large-aperture F1.4 standard lens stimulates the desire to create“SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC HSM”, the large-aperture standard lens with an angle of view equivalent to 45mm on a 35mm camera, is a superb go-to lens for artistic photography on an APS-C format digital SLR. Offering the bright F1.4 aperture & an angle of view extremely close to that of human vision, this lens is ideal for many different types of photographic expression. Featuring an advanced design & the latest manufacturing technologies, SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC HSM, the large-aperture APS-C format standard lens delivers the highest level of image quality worthy of the Art line. The photographer can leverage the shallow depth of field that creates beautiful bokeh for snap shots, portraits, landscapes, & many different styles of photography. Our Art line delivers high-level artistic quality Sigma is organizing all its interchangeable lenses into three product lines; Contemporary, Art & Sports. Designed with a focus on sophisticated optical performance & abundant expressive power, our Art line delivers high-level artistic expression. Developed with the maximum emphasis on artistic touch, they are designed to meet the expectations of users who value a creative, dramatic outcome above compactness & multifunction. Along with landscapes, portraits, still-life, close-up & casual snaps, they are perfect for the kind of photography that unleashes the inner artist. Ideal for studio photography, they offer just as much expressive scope when capturing architecture, starry skies, underwater shots & many other scenes. A large aperture F1.4 standard lens Sigma pioneered the large-aperture APS-C format standard lens category with its 30mm F1.4 lens in 2005. Now that we have reorganized all our lenses into three product lines, we are proud to introduce the fully updated “SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC HSM”. Offering the shallow depth of field of F1.4 & an angle of view extremely close to that of human vision, this lens stimulates the desire to create & is ideal for many different types of photographic expression. The bright viewfinder also aids focusing & composition of images. Outstanding image quality for enhanced photographic expression Convenient angle of view of a standard lens challenges photographers' expression. The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC HSM has outstanding optical performance in order to fully perform its best expressive quality at all shooting distances. Optimized power distribution minimizes field curvature thereby preventing a loss of image quality at the edges of photographs. The use of a double aspheric lens minimizes spherical distortion, astigmatism & coma. Coma of point light sources is minimized near the edge of the image, & an attractive round bokeh effect is produced at large-aperture settings Incorporating a Rear Focus system The lens incorporates a rear focus system that prevents focus-dependent variation in aberration, making high-level image quality possible throughout the entire image. With their unchanging barrel length, these lenses also enhance balance & stability for the photographer. Furthermore, since the front of the lens does not rotate, polarizing filters can be used with extra convenience. Flare & ghosting conscious design From an early stage, flare & ghosting are thoroughly measured to establish the design which is resistant to strong incident light such as backlight. Sigma's Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare & ghosting, & provides sharp & high contrast images even in backlit conditions. Minimum focusing distance of 30cm The maximum magnification is 1:6.8, making it excellent for close-up photography. Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) The HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures a silent, high-speed AF function. Optimizing AF algorithm, smoother AF is achieved. It also enables full-time manual focusing capability which allows sensible focus adjustment by simply rotating the focus ring. Incorporating Rounded diaphragm The 9 blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive round bokeh at large-aperture settings. Design Concept The new product lines incorporate rubber for the attachment part of the provided lens hood. For better usability, the designs of the lens cap & AF/MF changeover switch have been enhanced. In order to ensure high accuracy of the product, all metallic parts & the new compound material, TSC (Thermally Stable Composite), which has a high affinity to metal parts, are housed internally. Brass made bayonet mount This lens incorporates a brass made bayonet mount which has both high accuracy & durability. A special treatment to reinforce its strength is applied to the surface giving it greater strength & making it highly resistant to long-term use. Newly developed "USB DOCK" exclusively for new product lines Attaching the lens to an optional USB (Universal Serial Bus) DOCK (planned to be available in 2013) plugged to your computer & using dedicated software “SIGMA Optimization Pro”, you can update the lens firmware & adjust parameters such as focus. Evaluation with Sigma's own MTF measuring system "A1" We used to measure lens performance with MTF measuring system using conventional sensors. However, we've now developed our own proprietary MTF (modulation transfer function) measuring system (A1) using Foveon 46-megapixel direct image sensors. Even previously undetectable high-frequency details are now within the scope of our quality control inspections. The SIGMA 30mm F1.4 DC HSM will all be checked using this “A1” before they are shipped. " Made in Japan" All Sigma's manufacturing right down to molds & parts is carried out under an integrated production system. We are now one of the very few manufacturers whose products are solely “made in Japan”. We like to think our products are somehow imbued with the essence of our homel&, blessed as it is with clean air & water, & focused, hard-working people. We pride ourselves on the authentic quality of Sigma products, born of a marriage between highly attuned expertise & intelligent, advanced technology. Our sophisticated products have satisfied professionals & lovers of photography all over the world, because our manufacturing is based on genuine craftsmanship, underpinned by the passion & pride of our experts. ...

If you shoot with an APS-C format camera & want a lightweight, compact lens that will handle snapshots & portraits plus macro photography as well, this is it. The 35mm equivalent focal length of this lens is a distinctly “normal” 45mm, making it a good choice for general photography. But when an exquisite little detail catches your eye, you can move in as close as 2 centimetres from your subject to capture macro images with up to 1:1 magnification. The details you focus on will be astonishingly sharp, while the out-of-focus background dissolves into a creamy blur that can really make the details stand out. The SAL30M28 is only 45 millimetres long & weighs a discreet 150 grams, so it can stay on your camera or in your bag at all times without getting in the way. ...

Rogue 32 inch 2-in-1 Super Soft Silver / Natural White Reflector The Rogue 2-in-1 Super Soft Silver collapsible reflector creates softer fill light. The high quality custom fabric makes this a great reflector for use with flash & bright ambient light conditions. Other silver reflectors are typically made using a thin fabric with a very shiny silver surface, which often produces a harsher fill light than desirable, especially when used with brighter light sources. The custom Super Soft Silver fabric makes a more durable reflector that’s better suited for use with flash & bright outdoor light. It provides more kick than white fabric, while avoiding the harshness of the mirror like reflections produced by shiny silver reflectors. The other side uses a cleaner white for more optical brightness. Key

Features:
Creates softer fill light with flash & bright outdoor light Super Soft Silver™ provides a bright, medium contrast reflected light Natural White provides a subtle & neutral reflected light
