Sigma 24mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary (Sony FE) lens

Sigma 24mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary (Sony FE) lens

The Sigma 24mm F2 DG DN is a brighter version of the previously announced 24mm F3.5 lens . Now you can choose between ultra-compact size and brightness.

Lenses and especially photography are more than numbers. There is the quality of the mechanical parts, the success of the industrial design. In other words, how the whole thing feels in the hand, how it feels to adjust the aperture or manual focus. Does the lens feel solid and does it seem like your hands find the right places by themselves. And is it smooth and even fun to use? Sigma has managed to bring these things to the I Series lenses.

The division into Art and Contemporary series is now very fluid and these new products are close to the Art series, especially in terms of image quality. According to the manufacturer, the resolution and image quality are sufficient for Sony's high-resolution bodies such as the Sony A7R IV.

The lens structure is clearly more complex than the F3.5 version, now using 13 elements in 10 groups, and up to five of these are special elements. In addition to the raw resolution, other image errors such as coma have been minimized, making this suitable for demanding landscape photography and astrophotography.

Like other I Series lenses, the Sigma 24mm F2 features fine controls, a well-damped focus ring, and aperture control directly from the lens. The construction is metal, the lens hood is metal, and even the lens cap is metal and works magnetically. A traditional plastic lens cap is also included.
