Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Canon RF, Bundle with 67mm Filter Kit, Neoprene Lens Pouch, Lens Cleaner, Lens Cap Tether and Cleaning Kit

Specially designed for mirrorless camerasReleased in 2016 as the first of a new series of prime lenses for mirrorless cameras, the 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary combined F1.4 brightness with top-level optical performance. In order to achieve this low f-number in a large-diameter Contemporary lens, Sigma took on a wide variety of challenges, leveraging its latest optical design technologies, incorporating updated video capabilities, and utilizing in-camera digital correction to further improve the lens's optical quality. While prioritizing optical performance, Sigma developed a lightweight, compact package with steady AF that is truly easy to operate.
Like the 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary, the 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary features Sigma's advanced design technologies to offer F1.4 brightness while minimizing optical aberrations.
A member of the high-performance Contemporary line
For optimal balance with light, compact camera bodies with a short flange back distance, Sigma designed the Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lens to be extremely compact. Moreover, the special design of the focus lens group allows fast and smooth AF performance for videography and more. This lens combines a compact design and comfortable operation while prioritizing outstanding image quality. Featuring Sigma's latest technologies, this lens digitally corrects optical distortion.
Stepping motor delivers excellent autofocus with quiet performanceThe optical design and stepping motor deliver smooth autofocus during video shooting. The lens design fully accommodates the hybrid autofocus systems of various cameras for super-fast autofocus functionality. Using face recognition AF results in consistent autofocusing on faces, even as the subjects move.Combining compactness with outstanding optical performanceThe Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary features Sigma's inner focus technologies, while lighter lens elements in the focus lens group make possible a more compact actuator. Moreover, this lens offers outstanding stability whether the photographer is shooting handheld or has the camera placed on a surface. Structurally, the lens features materials and parts that contribute to its compact, lightweight structure. In summary, this is an unprecedented lens that combines outstanding optical performance with exceptional portability and usability.Large lens hood (supplied) to keep out harmful raysThe lens hood cuts harmful rays that can negatively affect photographs while also minimizing reflectivity within the hood itself. The hood also features a rubber construction and a non-slip groove to make it easy to hold in a variety of shooting situations.High-precision, rugged brass bayonet mountThe brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction. Its treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to the exceptional durability of the lens.

Mount with Dust and Splash Resistant Structure
The mount features a special sealing for a dust and splash resistant structure to make the lens an excellent choice in a wide variety of conditions.
Image quality rivaling that of Art line lensesWith 16 elements in 13 groups, the optical system features a multitude of high-tech and high-end components, including three FLD glass elements, two SLD glass elements, and two molded glass aspherical elements. This optical system minimizes optical aberrations and ensures outstanding resolution at wide-open aperture and throughout the aperture range. In particular, the two aspherical lens elements have ultra-high-precision surfaces polished to tolerances under 10 nanometers, minimizing the onion ring bokeh effect that some aspherical elements produce and ensuring clear image quality throughout the frame
