Small lens, big personality
Create expressive images on the go with the world's smallest and lightest ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras
The SIGMA 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s smallest and lightest ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras, covering an effective focal range of 15-27mm (35mm equivalent). With ultra-sharp optics, a bright f/2.8 aperture and a newly developed push-on petal-type lens hood, photographers can create expressive images anytime, anywhere. The lens features a unique aspherical element that reduces the overall size of the lens and enhances image quality.
An 11.6cm (1:4) minimum focusing distance to produce unique compositions, with expansive backgrounds and pleasing bokeh. With a weight of only 260g, a fast AF stepping motor and minimal focus breathing, the lens can be easily mounted onto a motorised gimbal to create impressive video content for social media use and professional projects. The lens is available for L-Mount, Sony E-mount and FUJIFILM X-Mount systems.
Large-aperture, ultra-wide-angle zoom with expressive imaging capabilities
By utilising unique optics which have been designed to correct lens aberrations, the SIGMA 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary produces images that are sharp across the entire image.
Aspherical lens, special low-dispersion glass
The use of an aspherical lens with large eccentricity and refractive index as the first lens element has enabled a lens construction with a reduced number of elements. Used in conjunction with multiple aspherical lenses and special low-dispersion glass, the lens can produce high resolution images whilst remaining compact and lightweight.
Minimum focusing distance 11.6cm, maximum magnification ratio 1:4
Create expressive close-up images using the 11.6cm minimum focusing distance when shooting at 10mm. With a magnification ratio of 1:4, the lens captures unique portraits, still life and more.
Extremely compact and lightweight
The SIGMA 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s smallest and lightest ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras, with a length of 62.0mm, a maximum diameter of 72.2mm, and a weight of 260g. The lens can be carried around with ease or attached to an APS-C mirrorless camera and a gimbal to create an ultra-portable video setup.
Newly developed push-on petal-type hood
A newly developed push-on petal-type hood is included with the lens. Unlike the conventional bayonet-type lens hoods that attach with a rotating movement, this push-on type lens hood is attached to the lens using a spring and lever system. The implementation of this new design reduces the size and thickness of the hood so that it matches the compact size of the lens.
Compact, lightweight, high-performance F2.8 constant aperture zoom lens series
When combined with the SIGMA 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN | Contemporary, a total, unbroken focal range of 15-75mm (35mm equivalent) with a constant f/2.8 aperture can be covered. The combined weight of both lenses is only 550g.
Mount with dust and splash-resistant structure
The lens mount incorporates rubber sealing to protect it from dust and water drops.
Ideal for landscapes, travel, video and online content creation
With ultra-wide focal length, portable body and razor-sharp optics, the SIGMA 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the perfect portable option for landscape, travel, interior and street photography. It also boasts impressive video capability owing to its bright f/2.8 aperture, which makes it well-suited to shooting in low-light environments and creating a shallow depth of field. The ultra-wide-angle-of-view is ideal for hand-held vlogging that requires the capture of both the subject and the environment.
Designed to minimise focus breathing
The lens has been designed to suppress focus breathing. The change in angle-of-view due to focus shift is minimised, creating a natural-looking focus shift when recording video.
Supports various camera functions
The lens is compatible with the electronic image stabilisation function, aberration correction function, DMF, and AF+MF in camera bodies from various manufacturers. The advantage of using this ultra-wide-angle lens is that it provides a generous angle of view even when the electronic image stabilisation function crops the image.
Function available on supported cameras only. Available corrections or auto-correction functionality may vary depending on the camera model.
Stepping Motor
A fast and quiet stepping motor is used to deliver precise AF when shooting stills and video. It is fully compatible with in-camera AF tracking modes.
