Sigma 402965 16 mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary Sony E Lens - Black

Product Information

With many lenses utilizing 67mm filters, effects filter sharing is highly potential, and the moderate size keeps the price down. Bright light reflecting off lens elements' surfaces may cause flare and ghosting, resulting in reduced contrast and sometimes interesting, usually destructive visual artifacts.

This Sigma lens is compatible with advanced mirrorless camera features, including Eye AF, in-camera lens correction (shading, chromatic aberration, distortion), and camera-based lens firmware updates. The lens can focus to just under 10 inches (25 centimeters), which provides a maximum magnification ratio of 1:9.9. This is clearly not a lens well-suited for macro photography. However, this close focus distance is sufficient if you want to utilize close foreground elements in landscape images or capture close-up portraits. The USPS love stamps shared above have an image area that measures 1.05 x 0.77" (26.67 x 19.558mm), and the overall individual stamp size is 1.19 x 0.91" (30.226 x 23.114mm).Here’s another shot taken at f1.4 with the camera set at 100 ISO.

It’s blazing fast every single time, even when it starts to get dark (though you can expect hunting if you try to shoot at, like, midnight). This guy DOES NOT sit still, so a sharp picture of him is a testament to the lens’s AF capabilities. AF-C/EyeAF

Corner sharpness does not always matter, but it does matter for many disciplines, including landscape photography. By f/2, sharp details are pushing deep into the image circle, and by f/4, extreme corners are very sharp.

Coma occurs when light rays from a point of light spread out from that point instead of being refocused as a point on the sensor. Autofocus was snappy to the degree that I didn't ever really have to think about it. Only the aforementioned Hybrid AF/LED Christmas light mismatch caused me to even give it a second thought. It's fast and quiet to the degree that you just don't notice it, and can concentrate on composing your shot instead. Alternatives The rear portion of the hood is rubberized to, along with the mold-ribbed ring, facilitate installation and removal. The lens hood cuts harmful rays that can negatively affect photographs while also minimizing reflectivity within the hood itself. The hood also features a rubber construction and a non-slip groove to make it easy to hold in a variety of shooting situations. As we’ve seen with an increasing number of Sigma’s Global Vision lenses for Canon DSLRs, this new M-mount lens is preloaded with data for enabling in-camera corrections for aberrations like peripheral illumination, chromatic aberration and diffraction, where featured in the host camera. Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN | C: PerformanceExtension tubes are hollow lens barrels that shift a lens farther from the camera, allowing shorter focusing distances at the expense of long-distance focusing. Still, distortion correction is destructive at the pixel level as some portion of the image must be stretched or the overall dimensions reduced. As of review time, Canon and Sony do not publish extension tube specs or manufacture these items in compatible mounts, but third-party extension tubes are available. In addition, the SIGMA Art line includes three lenses for mirrorless cameras that cover a range of photographic needs: 19mm F2.8 DN | Art, 30mm F2.8 DN | Art, and 60mm F2.8 DN | Art. These lenses require no digital processing to correct for optical aberrations, instead using the optical system to minimize them. Here are all three lenses mounted on the Canon EOS M6 II to show you what they look like on a Canon EF-M mount camera body.
