Wide-angle prime for Micro Four Thirds

The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 Contemporary DC DN is a fast wide-angle prime built for Micro Four Thirds mirrorless cameras. It provides a 24mm equivalent focal length suited to landscape, astrophotography, architectural and vlogging work. The f/1.4 maximum aperture delivers strong low-light performance and shallow depth of field for subject isolation.

Micro Four Thirds mount constraint

This lens uses the Micro Four Thirds mount and covers the crop-sensor image circle only. It will not project a full-frame image circle, so it cannot be used on full-frame cameras without heavy vignetting or crop mode. The 67mm filter thread accepts standard front filters for protection or creative effects.

f/1.4 maximum aperture decides fit

The f/1.4 aperture is the specification that determines whether this lens matches the user's needs for low-light shooting and depth-of-field control. The optical design uses 16 elements in 13 groups including three FLD and two SLD elements to correct aberrations. A brass bayonet with a rubber sealing gasket adds dust and splash resistance.

Questions about this item

What does the 16mm focal length give me on a Micro Four Thirds body?

On Micro Four Thirds the 16mm focal length produces a 24mm equivalent angle of view, covering 83.2 degrees diagonally for wide indoor or landscape framing.

How does the f/1.4 maximum aperture perform in real shooting?

The f/1.4 aperture gathers ample light for low ISO indoor or night work and creates shallow depth of field with smooth background separation at close distances.

What does the 67mm filter thread accept?

The 67mm front thread takes standard screw-in filters such as circular polarisers or neutral density glass without vignetting on this wide-angle design.
