A fast wide-angle prime for APS-C mirrorless cameras, giving a 35mm full-frame equivalent view. The f/1.4 aperture is the headline: it gathers light for dim scenes and throws backgrounds out of focus, and few APS-C primes this wide open match it. A stepping-motor inner focus keeps autofocus quick and quiet for stills and video, and the 9.9-inch minimum focus lets it double as a close-up and portrait lens. It suits street, travel and available-light shooters who want one bright, compact prime rather than a zoom.

Owners rate it as a sharp, well-built fast prime that punches above its class, with quick and quiet autofocus. The main grumbles are edge softness wide open and the lack of stabilization.
The Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary is a wide-angle prime lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras. It has a Sony E-mount and gives a field of view equivalent to 35mm on a full-frame camera. The large f/1.4 maximum aperture helps in difficult lighting and gives greater control over depth of field and bokeh.
An inner focus system with a stepping motor provides fast, accurate autofocus for stills and video. The minimum focusing distance is 9.9", so it can be used for close-ups and portraits. The lens works with the AF assist function and lens aberration correction on supported cameras.
The construction is dust and splash resistant. A brass bayonet mount is used for accuracy and durability.
