Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens For L-Mount Summary

Leica crop sensor users now have this 16mm prime lens option (24mm equivalent) which provides a compelling wide-angle choice. Suitable for a broad range of subjects from architecture to street photography, the Sigma combines a lightweight and compact form with an extremely fast aperture. Weighing in at around 400g. allows photographers to bring this model anywhere without breaking a sweat. The bright f/1.4 aperture allows enthusiasts to shoot into low light, ideal for capturing landscapes during sunrise/sunset or portraits in dimly lit environments.

Sigma has included a number of tried and tested advanced optical elements and coatings to deliver pleasing results. The addition of two SLD (Special low dispersion) and three FLD elements (low dispersion) elements help to increase contrast and reduce aberrations, making for well defined images even when photographing into light sources. The AF is fast and accurate as well as being quiet enough to allow smooth video recording without hearing the motor. A rounded aperture with nine blades complements the bright aperture for those who seek silky smooth bokeh for out of focus areas.
