Optical character
The 24mm F3.5 is a compact Sigma I series prime: on L-Mount it is 64 x 48.8mm and 225g, in black or an L-Mount-only silver finish. It trades aperture for size, and its standout feature is close focus to 10.8cm for a 1:2 maximum magnification at a wide-angle field of view.
That makes it useful for wide close-ups of smaller objects as well as distant landscapes. Ten elements, including one SLD and three glass-moulded aspherical elements, keep it short. It shares its 55mm filter size and outer diameter with Sigma's 45mm F2.8, and has the I series' knurled metal focus and aperture rings, a stepping motor for quiet AF, and a metal hood and magnetic cap in the box. Sigma renamed it from "DG DN" to "DG" in its renewed I series line-up; Sigma says the optical performance is the same.
