If you're seeking a compact, lightweight, yet high-performance lens for your Sony E-mount camera, consider the Sigma 18-50mm f/ 2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens. This versatile lens, specifically designed for APS-C size mirrorless cameras, offers a full-frame equivalent zoom range of 27-75mm. This makes it an ideal choice for various photography and videography applications, including landscape, portrait, street photography, architecture, and event coverage. One of the standout features of this lens is its large F 2.8 aperture, which facilitates hand-held low-light shooting and provides a shallow depth-of-field for impactful results.

The lens also boasts a maximum magnification of 1:2. 8, enabling macro-style close-up photography with a minimum focusing distance of just 12.1 cm. The Sigma 18-50mm f/ 2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens is equipped with a stepping motor, ensuring fast and quiet autofocus.

Its small form factor makes it an excellent first interchangeable lens or a convenient sub-lens for full-frame bodies.

The lens body is constructed from a durable polycarbonate known as Thermally Stable Composite (TSC), which offers thermal conductivity close to that of aluminum, ensuring stable performance in varying temperatures. The lens's optical design includes three high-precision glass-molded aspherical elements, minimizing the total number of elements for superior optical quality without excessive weight. In-camera aberration correction further eliminates optical imperfections such as distortion and vignetting. This lens bundle also includes a 55mm filter kit, lens cleaning kit, lens wrap, lens cap tether, and a software kit for Mac, providing you with everything you need for professional photography.
