The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Nikon Z Mount development brings Sigma's high performance, high-quality imaging to APS-C (DX) mirrorless Z creators for the first time.

This lens combines a compact design and comfortable ergonomics, while prioritising outstanding image quality. Sigma designed the new 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lens to be extremely compact, with a special focus lens group which delivers fast and smooth AF performance for videography.

FAST AND QUIET STEPPING MOTOR TECHNOLOGY

The stepping motor works with optics to deliver smooth autofocus for video recording and accommodates Fast Hybrid AF with face recognition on compatible cameras.

COMPACT WITH OUTSTANDING OPTICAL PERFORMANCE

The Sigma 16mm F/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens For Nikon Z Mount boasts inner focus technologies, while lighter lens elements in the focus lens group result in a more compact actuator. Users also enjoy outstanding stability whether shooting handheld or on a tripod. This is an unprecedented lens that combines outstanding optical performance with exceptional portability and usability.

EXTRAORDINARY IMAGE QUALITY

An optical system with 16 elements in 13 groups, features high-tech and high-end components, including three FLD glass elements, two SLD glass elements, and two moulded glass aspherical elements. This effectively minimises optical aberrations and ensures outstanding resolution even when shooting wide-open. The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image.

Two aspherical lens elements have ultra-high-precision polished surfaces reducing onion ring bokeh effect that some aspherical elements produce, whilst ensuring clear image quality across the entire frame. In addition, the structure of the optical system gently bends light to minimise sagittal coma flare and deliver optimal optical performance from the centre of the frame to the edges. The result is a smooth, round bokeh effect with ample light volume throughout the frame.

WELL CONTROLLED FLARE AND GHOSTING

Sigma’s Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting to help photographers produce sharp and high contrast images even in backlit conditions. The included lens hood can also be used to block extraneous light, which can have a negative effect on image rendering.

HIGH-PRECISION, BRASS BAYONET MOUNT

A brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction, plus treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to exceptional durability of this Nikon mirrorless lens. The mount is also dust and splash-proof, due to a special sealing, making a solid choice regardless of environmental conditions.
