The SIGMA 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary, is the world’s smallest and lightest ultra-wide- angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras*, covering an effective focal range of 15-27mm (35mm equivalent). With ultra-sharp optics, a bright F2.8 aperture and a newly developed push-on petal type lens hood, photographers can create expressive images anytime, anywhere.
The lens features a unique aspherical element that reduces the overall size of the lens and enhances image quality. An 11.6cm (1:4) minimum focusing distance produces unique compositions, with expansive backgrounds and pleasing bokeh. A fast AF stepping motor and minimal focus breathing, the lens can be easily mounted onto a motorized gimbal to create impressive video content for social media use and professional projects.
Key Features:
Large-aperture, ultra-wide-angle zoom with expressive imaging capabilities
By utilizing unique optics which have been designed to correct lens aberrations, the SIGMA 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary produces images that are sharp across the entire image. Aspherical lens, special low-dispersion glass.
The use of an aspherical lens with large eccentricity and refractive index as the first lens element has enabled a lens construction with a reduced number of elements.
Used in conjunction with multiple aspherical lenses and special low-dispersion glass, the lens can produce high resolution images whilst remaining compact and lightweight. Minimum focusing distance 11.6cm, maximum magnification ratio 1:4 Create expressive close-up images using the 11.6cm minimum focusing distance when shooting at 10mm. With a magnification ratio of 1:4, the lens captures unique portraits, still life and more
Exceptionally compact and lightweight
The SIGMA 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s smallest and lightest ultra-wide angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras*. The lens can be carried around with ease or attached to an APS-C mirrorless camera and a gimbal to create an ultra-portable video setup.
