Introducing the Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens, a wide-angle prime lens designed for use with FUJIFILM X-mount mirrorless cameras. This lens combines a comfortable wide-angle field of view with an ultra-fast maximum aperture of f/1.4, making it an excellent choice for low-light conditions and providing precise control over depth of field for creative focus effects.
The lens’s optical design incorporates several low dispersion and aspherical elements that effectively control color fringing and various aberrations. This results in exceptional sharpness and clarity across the entire aperture range. Additionally, each element features a super multilayered coating that minimizes flare and ghosting, ensuring high contrast and accurate color reproduction, even in challenging backlight situations.
The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN lens is equipped with a stepping AF motor, delivering fast, quiet, and smooth autofocus performance suitable for both still photography and video applications.
