A fast wide-angle prime for Sony E-mount APS-C cameras, giving a 24mm full-frame equivalent view at f/1.4. The 16-element, 13-group design keeps aberrations low and resolution high even wide open, and a stepping motor gives smooth, quiet autofocus for video. The mount is sealed against dust and splashes, which most budget wide primes skip. It suits vloggers, landscape and street shooters, and low-light interiors; it is larger and heavier than a slow kit zoom but far brighter.

Owners rate it as one of the sharpest fast wide primes for Sony APS-C, praising the f/1.4 brightness and video autofocus. Most complaints center on its size and weight and on vignetting wide open.
The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary is a wide-angle prime lens for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras with APS-C sensors. On these cameras it gives a 24mm equivalent focal length with a bright f/1.4 maximum aperture. A Micro Four Thirds version of the lens gives a 32mm equivalent focal length at the same f/1.4.
The optical design has 16 elements in 13 groups. It is built to minimize optical aberrations and to resolve fine detail at wide-open aperture and across the aperture range. A stepping motor and the optical design give smooth autofocus during video shooting. The mount has a special seal that makes it dust- and splash-proof.
The lens shares its development concept with the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary. It is made as a lightweight, compact lens for everyday use.
