    • Excellent budget-friendly lens
Style: SONY E
The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens has been a fantastic addition to my Sony setup. It fits perfectly and delivers beautiful, sharp images with rich color and great depth of field. For a lens at this price point, the photo quality is truly impressive. It performs like something much more expensive. It is a bit on the bulky and heavier side compared to other lenses in this range that I own, but that’s a small trade-off for the clarity and low-light performance it offers. Whether for everyday photography or creative shots, it’s a solid, budget-friendly investment that consistently produces professional-looking results. Definitely worth the buy. ... show more

    • Stunning Quality
Style: SONY E
The Sigma 16mm lens is an outstanding piece of equipment that I have been using for the past three years, and I can confidently say that it's one of the best lenses I have ever owned. It's a prime lens that offers a wide-angle view that's perfect for capturing stunning landscapes, architecture, and cityscapes. One of the things I love most about this lens is its exceptional optical quality. The images captured are sharp, with excellent contrast and vivid colors. The lens produces sharp images, even in low-light conditions, which is a testament to its impressive f/1.4 aperture. The build quality of the lens is also top-notch. It feels very sturdy in hand, and it's clear that it's built to last. The lens mount is made of metal, which gives me confidence that it won't wear out easily. The lens is also lightweight and compact, making it easy to carry around and travel with. Its autofocus is also accurate and quick, which makes it a reliable choice for capturing fast-moving subjects. Overall, I can confidently say that the Sigma 16mm lens is a must-have for any photographer who loves capturing wide-angle shots. It's a high-quality lens that produces exceptional images, and its build quality is excellent. I would highly recommend this lens to anyone looking for a reliable wide-angle lens. It's a five-star product that has never let me down. ... show more

This is a very good lens no doubt. More so for the price. I'm a photography enthusiast and all those pictures were taken with this lens on the Sony ZVE-10 within less than a month of my getting into photography. One big thing about this lens is that is unexpectedly very good in low light. Clearly, its very low aperture of f1.8 makes it collect much light and consequently have better nighttime performance but still, the images that this lens outputs at night are simply shockingly stunning. The only major challenge you can have with this at night is the dynamic range of your camera. I'm very big on bokeh and this lens does perform - albeit not well enough for me. The bokeh is quite decent if the object in focus is close enough (although for portraits, your subject can feel invaded because of the proximity that will be required to get the best bokeh). From my use, I found that it has very unnoticeable to no chromatic aberration in almost all situations & it has a fair bit of distortion but it's nothing that can't be easily fixed in post-production if you are shooting raw. The fact that it is a wide-angle lens means it's able to capture a lot at once as you can see in some of those nighttime pictures in a performance. That said, this is a very capable and fairly flexible lens. It can handle both wide-angle shots & night-time photography well with good results (although not the best) when taking portraits. Because I'm big on portraits and would be primarily using it with my camera to record a human subject, I decided to return this go for its other sibling - the Sigma 30mm. I can expect better bokeh and portrait shots from that with similar night performance although poorer chromatic aberration overall. Nonetheless, even with the shortcomings of this lens, it is still a very good one and most definitely a great value for its price. ... show more

This is a fantastic prime lens and generally considered the best value everyday prime for Sony a6000-series cameras. I had originally bought the 30mm version of this lens and got a bad copy, so it was years before I succumbed to the fabulous reviews and got this for my a6300. It's outstanding. With the kit lens, I found myself taking a LOT of shots indoors at 16mm, so getting a fast 16mm prime (24mm equiv) made a lot of sense. Just set your minimum shutter to 100s and don't worry about its lack of OSS if you don't have IBS. Focusing is fast, it feels good in the hand, the bokeh is lovely, and of course its extremely sharp. If you are like me and bought a 50mm as your first APS-C prime out of habit (and value), and realized it's 75mm equiv is too long for everyday shooting, this lens is for you. With this focal length, closeups are distorted as wide-angle, but take a couple steps back and environmental portraits make for normal heads. I spent so much time trying to get two people into the frame with my 50mm its relaxing to have so much more view to work with. I do shoot at 1.4 alot, but keep in mind this is a very narrow DOF so you will want to use eye auto-focus for portraits. Shooting multiple faces, I will open it up to 1.7-2.8 as needed to keep everyone reasonably in focus. On my a7-II , this is a 24MP 16mm lens with a vignette (have to remove the hood to minimize this), or 10MP 24mm in APS-C mode (which are largely indistinguishable from the a6300 24MP shots). All in all, this lens lives up to its reputation as an unbeatable value everyday performance prime. ... show more
