Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary - Fujifilm X Mount

• Petal-type lens hood
• Simple dust- and splash-proof design
• Designed to minimise flare and ghosting
• Every single lens undergoes SIGMA’s proprietary MTF measuring system ‘A1’
• 7-blade rounded diaphragm
• High-precision, durable brass bayonet mount
• ‘Made in Japan’ craftsmanship

The lens has a full-frame-equivalent zoom range of 27mm to 75mm, with superb edge-to-edge sharpness at all apertures owing to the latest optical design technology. This includes one Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element and three aspherical elements to control unwanted optical aberrations such as chromatic aberration.

The constant aperture of F2.8 allows for a shallow depth-of-field, making it easy to achieve blurry backgrounds. A fast aperture also makes it easier to shoot hand-held in low light – ideal for weddings and other situations where a tripod isn’t convenient. The 18-50mm has a minimum focusing distance of 12.1cm and a maximum magnification of 1:2.8, perfect for capturing close-ups of smaller subjects such as flowers and insects.

Exceptionally compact and lightweight body

Weighing less than 300g and measuring just under 77mm in length the 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is the smallest and lightest lens in its class, balancing well with modern APS-C mirrorless camera bodies. It combines an aluminium internal structure with a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) outer barrel to produce a robust but compact product that can withstand the rigours of daily use. Aluminium and TSC have a similar thermal expansion rate, helping the lens to deliver consistent results as temperatures change.
