Pros and cons
According to our camera lens expert
- The large aperture ensures a lot of depth of field in your photos.
- The silent autofocus motor ensures that you don't hear it while recording.
- The lens doesn't have image stabilization to compensate vibrations.
Description
The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary is a wide-angle lens with high aperture for landscape, architecture, and interior photography. This lens is suitable for mirrorless cameras with a Sony E-mount APS-C size. Thanks to the high maximum aperture, you can also use it in low-light situations. You can create a high depth of field, so your subject stands out from the background. The Sigma has a silent autofocus, so you won't hear it on your recordings. Thanks to the Super Multi Layer coating and aspherical lens elements, the lens reduces discolorations in the photos. The lens is dustproof and waterproof, so you use it in various weather conditions.
This is what you get
- Lens cap
- Protective cover

Can use several times now. Lovely lens, not too heavy and of good quality. The lens remains sharp for both wide-angle use and closeups.

Must have for every Bokeh lover.
- Beautiful photos & videos in low light
- Good (& quiet) autofocus
- Sturdy & good quality
- Fairly heavy
Very good lens for both photos and videos. Razor sharp image & amazing quality in low light conditions.
Fast autofocus & a must have lens for any Bokeh enthusiast.
The only downside is that the lens weighs quite a lot (+400 grams), which made my Sony a6500 feel fairly unbalanced in the hand.
For the rest it is a perfect price / quality ratio.
