Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Canon RF

The 16mm f/1.4 DC DN lens, part of Sigma's Contemporary series, is engineered for Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras, offering a comfortable wide-angle design coupled with an exceptionally fast maximum aperture. Its bright f/1.4 aperture excels in low-light environments and provides enhanced control over depth of field, allowing for precise selective focus. The lens's optical construction incorporates multiple low dispersion and aspherical elements, effectively minimizing color fringing and various aberrations, thus ensuring high sharpness and clarity across the entire aperture range. Additionally, each element is treated with a super multilayered coating to reduce flare and ghosting, resulting in improved contrast and color accuracy even in challenging lighting situations. Complementing its optical features, this lens is equipped with a stepping autofocus motor, delivering rapid, quiet, and smooth focusing performance suitable for both still images and video recording.
