The SIGMA 23mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary is the ideal lens for mirrorless APS-C cameras. With an easy-to-use angle of view, high optical performance, the speed of a large F1.4 aperture, and a compact and lightweight lens body, we have incorporated our experience from the Contemporary line into a lens that is ideal for use with mirrorless APS-C cameras.

The lens offers excellent resolution even at maximum aperture and effective bokeh thanks to its F1.4 speed. The wide-angle lens proves its performance in a wide range of applications, including landscape, portrait and tabletop photography. To take advantage of the high mobility of mirrorless cameras, great emphasis has been placed on the compactness of the lens body.

Our Contemporary lineup includes several compact and lightweight F1.4 fixed focal length lenses in APS-C format that are surprisingly easy to carry around. If you want to keep your gear light and small, but don't want to compromise on imaging performance, this lens will meet your needs and you won't want to give it away

Compact body optimized for APS-C mirrorless cameras.

To take advantage of the mobility of APS-C mirrorless cameras, the lens body is compact and lightweight, with a weight of 340g*, a length of 76.9mm*, and a filter diameter of 52mm. At the same time, the quality of the lens body itself has not been compromised. Thanks to the high-precision processing technology of SIGMA's sole manufacturing facility in Aizu, Japan, the lens has achieved an ideal balance between excellent optical performance, based on the latest optical and mechanical design, and compactness. The AF drive system uses a quiet, very fast stepper motor. The latest algorithm enables fast focusing for uncomplicated shooting

High-quality coating

An ideal lens directs incident light through all the lenses and onto the sensor.

If, on the other hand, some of the light is reflected by individual lenses, not only does the light yield decrease; the reflections within the lens create ghost images and aperture spots, or they reduce contrast. Such effects would be particularly noticeable in backlit shots.

To prevent this, our 23mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary uses a Super Multi-Layer Coating (SML) that reduces flare and ghosting. The result is clear, sharp, high-contrast images without distracting lens flares
