Premium portrait lenses usually offer apertures of around f/1.4 and sit at prices around $1,500 to $2,500. If you just want a portrait-length lens without the ultra-narrow depth of field or the high price tag, an aperture like f/2 or f/2.8 could be a good choice. Sigma’s new 90mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary lens seeks to fill that need at an affordable price and the image quality and performance you can expect from it when shooting.
Coming in at $639(341,865 Naira ), the 90mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary offers portrait photographers a more affordable alternative to lenses like an 85mm f/1.4. It comes with a variety of useful features, including:
- One aspherical element and five special low dispersion elements for reduced aberrations and increased sharpness
- Manual aperture ring
- Knurled metal components
- Rounded nine-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh
- Lightweight and compact size
- Stepping motor for smooth and quiet auto-focus
- All-metal body with weather-sealing for working in a range of conditions
