Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens (Fujifilm X)

The Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary lens provides a versatile 27-75mm equivalent zoom range with an unwavering f/2.8 maximum aperture across the entire focal spectrum. This optical design incorporates three precision aspherical elements and low-dispersion glass to achieve superior image quality while maintaining a featherweight profile ideal for handheld work. The lens performs with equal competence across landscapes, portraiture, architectural documentation, and event photography. Its stepping motor autofocus system delivers silent, rapid focusing performance—particularly advantageous for video capture and photographing dynamic subjects in motion. The 12.1cm minimum focus distance unlocks macro capabilities for close-up work, and the seven-blade rounded diaphragm produces smooth, aesthetically pleasing bokeh separation. A reliable professional-caliber standard zoom engineered for mirrorless photographers who demand uncompromising optical performance and practical usability.

Key Features:

• Standard zoom lens is designed for APS-C-format Fujifilm X-mount cameras and provides a 35mm equivalent focal length range of 27-75mm.
• Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.
• Three high-precision glass-molded aspherical elements are used to help limit distortion and spherical aberrations and contribute to greater overall sharpness and accurate rendering.
• Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing.
• Super Multi-Layer Coating minimizes flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
• In-camera aberration correction further eliminates optical imperfections such as distortion and vignetting.
• Stepping motor with nearly silent autofocus that makes it perfectly suited to a range of photographic applications, including shooting in quiet environments, recording videos, and capturing fast-moving subjects.
• Minimum focusing distance of 12cm and a 1:2.8 maximum magnification ratio benefits working with close-up subjects.
• Rounded seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
