SIGMA 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary [for Fujifilm] Lens for Fujifilm X-mount

[Product details]

A large aperture F2.8 standard zoom lens that delivers sharp images

It covers a range from 27mm to 75mm in 35mm format, and with a constant F2.8 aperture that doesn't change across the entire zoom range, this easy-to-use zoom lens will expand the scope of your photography.
The short flange back allows for great design freedom, and the camera's optical correction function has been utilized. The number of lens elements has been minimized through the use of the latest optical design technology. And three high-precision glass-molded aspherical lenses are made possible by SIGMA's Aizu factory, its only production facility. All of this has resulted in a size and weight that is unimaginable given its specifications.
When it comes to image creation, you can enjoy the bokeh effect of the large F2.8 aperture, while at the same time achieving sharp depiction of the focused parts. With this compact shooting system, you can fully enjoy the joy of photography.


◆An extremely compact and lightweight body ideal for mirrorless camera systems

The outstanding portability of APS-C mirrorless cameras and the overwhelmingly small and lightweight body that maximizes this advantage are major features of the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary.
Despite its large aperture of F2.8, it is the smallest and lightest in its class with a maximum diameter of φ65.4mm, length of 74.5mm and weight of 290g*1.*2 This large aperture standard zoom makes it easy to carry around with you on a daily basis.
The materials and structure of the parts are carefully selected to ensure a compact and lightweight body. "TSC (Thermally Stable Composite)" polycarbonate, which has a thermal contraction rate close to that of aluminum, is used in appropriate places to achieve stable performance, good operability, and lightweight performance even in environments with temperature changes.
By deliberately using metal for part of the internal structure, we have been able to make the parts thin and ensure a high level of rigidity, making it durable enough to withstand everyday use and providing a light and easy-to-use feel.
*1 The numbers are for L-mount.
*2 As an AF-compatible, F2.8 constant zoom lens for APS-C mirrorless cameras (according to SIGMA research as of October 2021).


◆ Suitable for various shooting situations

A stepping motor is used for the AF actuator.
The fast and quiet AF is ideal for both still images and video recording.
Because the filming equipment is small and lightweight, it can be flexibly used in any situation where high mobility is required, such as handheld filming, gimbal filming, one-man operation video shooting, and vlog shooting.
When combined with the “pocketable full-frame” SIGMA fp, the total weight is just 712g. It can also be used as a secondary lens for a full-frame camera when you want to reduce the amount of luggage you carry.
The 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is compact, lightweight, high-performance, and has a large aperture, making it suitable for a variety of shooting situations, from beginners to mirrorless cameras to video shooting and combination with full-frame cameras.
