The Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens covers 27mm to 75mm in the 35mm format, and has a wide aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range. This makes it easy to achieve blurry backgrounds, which is ideal for shooting attractive portraits and close-ups. The bokeh is smooth and attractive so doesn’t distract from the in-focus subject.
The Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens is remarkably compact, matching the portability of APS-C mirrorless camera bodies. This makes it a perfect workhorse lens that is ideal for general day-to-day use. The lens is currently the smallest and lightest in its class※1, boasting a maximum diameter of φ61.6mm, a length of 76.5mm and weight of 290g, yet still maintains a constant aperture of F2.8. Combined with the “Pocketable Full-Frame” SIGMA fp, the total weight is only 712g, and it can also be useful as a sub-lens for full-frame cameras (used in crop mode) to keep weight down.
