• Large-aperture, ultra-wide-angle zoom with expressive imaging capabilities

  By utilizing unique optics which have been designed to correct lens aberrations, the Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary produces images that are sharp across the entire image.

• Aspherical lens, special low-dispersion glass

  The use of an aspherical lens with large eccentricity and refractive index as the first lens element has enabled a lens construction with a reduced number of elements. Used in conjunction with multiple aspherical lenses and special low-dispersion glass, the lens can produce high resolution images whilst remaining compact and lightweight.

• Minimum focusing distance 11.6cm, maximum magnification ratio 1:4

  Create expressive close-up images using the 11.6cm minimum focusing distance when shooting at 10mm. With a magnification ratio of 1:4, the lens captures unique portraits, still life and more.

  

• Extremely compact and lightweight

  The Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s smallest and lightest ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras*, with a length of 62.0mm, a maximum diameter of 72.2mm, and a weight of 260g*. The lens can be carried around with ease or attached to an APS-C mirrorless camera and a gimbal to create an ultra-portable video setup.

  *As an AF F2.8 zoom lens for mirrorless cameras with an APS-C sensor. As of October, 2023 by Sigma.
  *The values are for L-mount.

  

• Newly developed push-on petal type hood

  A newly developed push-on petal type hood is included with the lens. Unlike the conventional bayonet type lens hoods that attach with a rotating movement, this push-on type lens hood is attached onto the lens using a spring and lever system. The implementation of this new design reduces the size and thickness of the hood so that it matches the compact size of the lens.

  

• Compact, lightweight, high-performance F2.8 constant aperture zoom lens series

  When combined with the Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary, a total, unbroken focal range of 15-75mm (35mm equivalent) with a constant F2.8 aperture can be covered. The combined weight of both lenses is only 550g.

  *The values are for L-mount.

  

• Mount with dust and splash resistant structure

  The lens mount incorporates rubber sealing to protect it from dust and water drops.

• Fast-growing lineup of lenses for APS-C mirrorless cameras

  In addition to the Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary, the lineup of lenses for APS-C mirrorless cameras includes 16mm, 23mm, 30mm, and 56mm prime lenses, all with F1.4 brightness. This flexible lens selection can be used for a wide variety of photographic applications.

  *Lineup is as of October 2023.

• Ideal for landscapes, travel, video and online content creation

  With ultra-wide focal length, portable body and razor-sharp optics, the Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the perfect portable option for landscape, travel, interior and street photography. It also boasts impressive video capability owing to its bright F2.8 aperture, which makes it well-suited to shooting in low-light environments and creating a shallow depth-of-field. The ultra-wide-angle-of-view is ideal for hand-held vlogging that requires the capture of both the subject and the environment.

  

• Designed to minimize focus breathing

  The lens has been designed to suppress focus breathing. The change in angle-of-view due to focus shift is minimized, creating a natural-looking focus shift when recording video.

• Supports various camera functions

  The lens is compatible with the electronic image stabilization function, aberration correction function, DMF, and AF+MF in camera bodies from various manufacturers. The advantage using this ultra-wide-angle lens is that it provides a generous angle-of-view even when the electronic image stabilization function crops the image.

  *Function available on supported cameras only. Available corrections or auto correction functionality may vary depending on the camera model.

• Stepping Motor

  A fast and quiet stepping motor is used to deliver precise AF when shooting stills and video. It is fully compatible with in-camera AF tracking modes.
