Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary (for E Mount), Black

This is absolutely one of the best lenses you can get for in APS C camera. It's basically equivalent to 28-75mm in full frame. With the constant aperture of F/2.8. So it allows a good amount of light in and is great because of the constant aperture, compared to variable ones. The build quality is very nice. It seems pretty well built. Although this is their contemporary series, it still feels premium. One of the best things is the light weight and small size compared to the full frame lenses I used to use. It makes it much more light to carry around, and makes me want to go out and shoot more. Very sharp, with nice Bokeh. Overall, I would give this lens an 8.5/10 or more; probably a solid 9.

Excellent lens always on a Sony A6600 kept under my driver seat. Small size. Nice 27-75 mm on an APS-C camera. Very crisp.

This has become my primary walking around lens on an a6700. The pictures are sharp, even in low light. The f stop stays where it's set across all focal lengths, just as advertised. 2.8 is enough to get a nice, shallow depth of field when you want it. The focus motor is extremely quiet and is not heard on any videos I've taken. Overall, a superb lens and good value compared to the Sony equivalent.

As an owner of both the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 and 56mm f/1.4, I got this zoom lens with the intention of using it for travel photography, mostly due to the small size and great quality; but I can now say that it will pretty much be my default lens for most situations. It’s a great upgrade for anyone using the default sony kit lens, with the only caveat being the lack of stabilization. And while not necessarily an upgrade compared to my other sigma lenses in terms of image quality, it definitely is when it comes to practicality. At a constant f/2.8 aperture, the amount of light this little lens can capture is amazing. This will be the lens I keep attached to my camera by default. I still love my f/1.4’s, but unless I am on a low light situation or aiming for the most bokeh I can get, I rather use this amazing lens to gain the flexibility of the 18-50mm focal lengths without having to swap primes all the time.

Bought this as a good zoom walk around lens for street photography and portrait photography. Love the size of this thing and the f/2.8 aperture. Seems to give me pretty clean results even wide open. There is no image stabilization, so I have to watch my shutter speed on my non-IBIS camera bodies. I have used this on both my A6400 and A7Cii with great results. The main reason I went those two camera bodies is the size of them and how easy it is to pack them for travel and this lens compliments them well. I have the 24-70mm, 18-50mm and 30mm as well as these two bodies and it takes up less space than my old DSLR setup with two lenses. For photographers, this is a great, light weight, affordable lens to have in your kit. The pic shows the size compared to an A7Cii with Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8

The lens feels very high quality, the autofocus just works. It's a 2.8 lens, so it'll be pretty fast if you use it at 2.8. Nice compact apsc lens. I would give it five stars, however, I find that the lens is a bit too soft for my preference, not a total dealbreaker. It has its purpose, but for a general lens, I prefer the Tamron 17-70, but that lens is a bit more expensive than this one.

Grate auto enfoque. Super nice

this lens is superior. I do food videography, but this lens is amazing for shooting people or anything really this is a versatile lens and was 100% worth the price. The look isn’t too bulky so the size is perfect, sharpness is great. Would recommend to anyone trying to get into videography or photography.

My ZV-E10 pairs with this lens 90% of the time, shows how versatile it is. It's reasonably sharp for a small zoom lens. The weight and size are the main reasons I got it over the Sony and Tamron. As a beginner I felt the most important thing is taking camera out and use it, it's difficult to do so with heavier and bigger lens.

Öncelikle ürün çok özenli şekilde kargolanmış, Aras Foto’ya teşekkür ederim. Ürünü uzun uzun anlatmaya gerek yok; benim açımdan şu ana kadar değerlendirdiğim en iyi fiyat/performans lenslerden biri. Uzun zamandır profesyonel video işleriyle uğraşıyorum ve çekimlerimin büyük kısmı sosyal medya odaklı. Bu ürünü almadan önce Sigma 17-40 f/1.8 ve Tamron 17-70 f/2.8 lenslerini de değerlendirdim. Ancak yaptığım araştırmalar, izlediğim testler ve kullanıcı geri bildirimleri sonucunda bu lensin Sony FX30 ile sorunsuz ve tam uyumlu çalıştığını gördüm. FX30’u ilerleyen dönemde almayı planlıyorum. Hem bütçe açısından daha mantıklı olması hem de uyumluluk ve stabil performans beklentimi karşılaması nedeniyle bu lensi tercih ettim.

f/2.8 is Enough: Pretty awesome lens, I know there's the new Sigma 17-40mm f/1.8 but in my honest opinion this lens still stands the test of time. The portability is just much better and doesn't weigh much. You really get a whole host of benefits and zoom ranges which at an aperture of F2.8 is still more than enough in my opinion. Sharpness & OSS: Sigma is known for making sharp lenses in the centre and the edges which still excels in. Image stabilisation is of course not ideal with no OSS, but if that's a feature you want then buy the Tamron 17-70mm f/2.8 which uses VC (Vibration Compensation), not the best OSS but is much better than nothing at all and you get more zoom. Overall: The best lens is the one you actually use, and this lens definitely makes a great frequent companion for a whole host of scenarios, arguably and still is the best APSC lens you can buy. Worth every penny

Objetivo perfecto para aficionados con ganas de mejorar. Como aficionado a la fotografía con cámara Sony, el Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN Contemporary ha sido una de mis mejores compras. La calidad de imagen es excelente: nitidez impresionante desde el centro hasta los bordes, y el color es precioso. El zoom 18‑50mm cubre justo lo que necesito para retratos, paisajes y fotos del día a día sin cambiar de objetivo. El diafragma f/2.8 constante hace que funcione muy bien en luz baja y permite un bonito desenfoque cuando lo quiero. Además, es ligero y compacto, ideal para llevar siempre conmigo sin que se convierta en un estorbo. En resumen: perfecto equilibrio entre calidad, versatilidad y tamaño. Muy recomendado para quienes empiezan a tomarse la fotografía en serio.
