Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary Lens for Fujifilm X Mount

A remarkably versatile zoom, the Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary Lens is a groundbreaking all-in-one option designed for APS-C mirrorless cameras. Spanning wide-angle to super-telephoto in a portable form, this ultimate travel lens impresses with fast autofocus, powerful stabilization, and unexpected macro capabilities, making it suitable for nearly any shooting scenario. With an outstanding 18.8x zoom range, the lens delivers a 24-450mm-equivalent focal length, making it an excellent all-purpose choice. The wide end is perfect for landscapes, interiors, and architecture, while the telephoto end excels at capturing distant action and wildlife. In between, it seamlessly handles portraits, street photography, and close-up subjects.

Combining precise autofocus with robust image stabilization, this lens is built to tackle a variety of subjects. A High-response Linear Actuator (HLA) provides fast and accurate focusing, ensuring reliable performance when tracking fast-moving subjects. Beyond its focal length range, the lens offers a 1:2 maximum magnification at 70mm for close-up work, with 1:3 at the wide end and 1:4 at full telephoto. For sharp, steady images, its advanced stabilization system compensates for up to 6 stops of shake at 16mm and 4.5 stops at the long end. Sigma's OS2 algorithm - borrowed from its high-end super-telephoto lenses - ensures reliable handheld shooting, even in low light or at maximum zoom.

The optical design includes low-dispersion glass and four aspherical elements, minimizing aberrations while maximizing sharpness, clarity, and accurate color reproduction. The lens is optimized to resist flare and ghosting in challenging lighting. Additionally, focus breathing is well-controlled, making it a strong choice for filmmakers and composite photography applications. Despite its extensive zoom range, the lens remains compact and lightweight at just 4.8" in length and 1.4 lb, making it a perfect travel companion. It also features dust- and splash-resistant sealing for durability in harsh weather, a water- and oil-repellent front coating for easy cleaning, and a zoom lock switch at the wide end to prevent unwanted extension when stored.
