Category: Mirrorless Lenses

SIGMA’s first APS-C size mirrorless zoom lens has a versatile full-frame equivalent zoom range of 27-75mm, which makes it ideal for a wide range of photo and video applications including landscapes, portraits, street photography, architecture and events. It can also be used for macro-style close-up photography owing to its maximum magnification of 1:2.8*1 and minimum focusing distance of just 12.1cm. The bright F2.8 aperture makes for easier hand-held low-light shooting and provides a shallow depth-of-field for high-impact results. Autofocus is exceptionally fast and quiet thanks to the stepping motor, which can be particularly useful when shooting video, or fast-moving subjects such as children and animals. The lens’ exceptionally small and light form factor that weighs less than 300g makes it perfect as a first interchangeable lens, as well as a sub-lens for full-frame bodies*2, as well as for various shooting situations.

Violet ★★★★★

Switching from the kit lens to this f/2.8 constant aperture zoom is a night and day difference for low-light indoor shots. The 27-75mm full-frame equivalent range covers everything I need for travel and portraits.

Zoe Q. ★★★★★

Finally a zoom that doesn't feel like a brick in my bag, yet the 27-75mm equivalent range covers everything I shoot on a daily walk. The f/2.8 aperture handles low light way better than my kit lens ever could.

Edward X. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this lens for street photography and the constant f/2.8 aperture makes low-light shots incredibly crisp without bumping up the ISO. The 27-75mm equivalent range covers everything from tight alleyways to wider scenes, which is exactly what I needed.
