Amazing Lens
There's plenty of reviews on this particular lens, so one more is not going to hurt. I will touch more on the "negatives" of the lens though. The lens is BIG. It significantly adds size to the camera body. It also adds a good amount of weight. So if you want something small to carry around, such as the kit zoom lens, this probably isn't the right lens for you. But if you want something that is sharp, gives you great images, has really good AF, then you won't be disappointed with this lens.
GREAT lens!
The Sigma 16mm f/1.4 Contemporary is an excellent lens for my Canon EOS M6 Mark II. After years of using much slower (smaller maximum aperture) lenses on M bodies, I've discovered a whole new potential. Build quality is excellent as is autofocus performance. About half of the time I use the 16mm the M6 Mk II is in manual focus with focus peaking to precisely control the plane of focus. I know the pixel peepers say it's a bit sharper at f/2.8 and f/4, but I don't see the difference. I also use...

A New Large-Aperture F1.4 Wide Lens From The Contemporary Line.
Offering An Opportunity To Experience The Fun Of Shooting Wide Open, With F1.4 Brightness.
The new SIGMA 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s first interchangeable lens for mirrorless Sony E-mount cameras in the APS-C format to offer a 24mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and F1.4 brightness. The lens for Micro Four Thirds offers a 32mm focal length (35mm equivalent) with the same f-number of 1.4. This is the large-diameter wide-angle lens for which mirrorless camera users have been waiting.
Developed to feature a lightweight, compact package for everyday use, SIGMA DN lenses for mirrorless cameras deliver superior performance covering the key focal lengths. The new lens builds on the success of the 30mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary, which SIGMA released in 2016 as the first in a new series of prime lenses for mirrorless cameras. The 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary also combines F1.4 brightness with top-level optical performance.
Large Lens Hood (supplied) To Keep Out Harmful Rays.
The lens hood cuts harmful rays that can negatively affect photographs while also minimizing reflectivity within the hood itself. The hood also features a rubber construction and a non-slip groove to make it easy to hold in a variety of shooting situations.
Combining Compactness With Outstanding Optical Performance.
The SIGMA 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary features SIGMA’s inner focus technologies, while lighter lens elements in the focus lens group make possible a more compact actuator. Moreover, this lens offers outstanding stability whether the photographer is shooting handheld or has the camera placed on a surface. Structurally, the lens features materials and parts that contribute to its compact, lightweight structure. In summary, this is an unprecedented lens that combines outstanding optical performance with exceptional portability and usability.
Mount With Dust- & Splash-Proof Construction.
The mount features a special sealing to make the lens an excellent choice in a wide variety of conditions.
＊Except for Canon EF-M mount
High-Precision, Rugged Brass Bayonet Mount.
The brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction. Its treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to the exceptional durability of the lens.
Image Quality Rivaling That Of Our Art Line Lenses.
Minimizing Sagittal Coma Flare.
With 16 elements in 13 groups, the optical system features a multitude of high-tech and high-end components, including three FLD glass elements, two SLD glass elements, and two molded glass aspherical elements. This optical system minimizes optical aberrations and ensures outstanding resolution at wide-open aperture and throughout the aperture range. In particular, the two aspherical lens elements have ultra-high-precision surfaces polished to tolerances under 10 nanometers, minimizing the onion ring bokeh effect that some aspherical elements produce and ensuring clear image quality throughout the frame. In addition, the structure of the optical system gently bends light to minimize sagittal coma flare and deliver optimal optical performance from the center of the frame to the edges. The result is a smooth, round bokeh effect with ample light volume throughout the frame.
Designed To Minimize Flare & Ghosting.
From an early stage in the lens design process, flare and ghosting have been measured to establish an optical design resistant to strong incident light sources such as backlighting. SIGMA’s Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting to help photographers produce sharp and high contrast images even in backlit conditions. The included lens hood can be attached to block out extraneous light, which can have a negative effect on rendering performance.
Bright Prime Functionality To Experience Photography At Its Best.
A bright prime lens is the ideal way to experience the essence of the art of photography. Simply select a focal length that matches the image and enjoy complete control of the depth of field.
The 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary is the world’s first interchangeable lens for mirrorless Sony E-mount cameras in the APS-C format to offer a 24mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and F1.4 brightness. The lens for Micro Four Thirds offers a 32mm focal length (35mm equivalent) with the same bright F1.4 aperture. This is the large-diameter wide-angle lens for which mirrorless camera users have been waiting.
Rounded Diaphragm.
The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image.
New SIGMA GLOBAL VISION Product Lines Are Setting New Benchmarks For Image Quality.
Evaluation With SIGMA’s Own MTF Measuring System: A1.
We used to measure lens performance with a Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) measuring system using conventional sensors. However, we have developed our own proprietary MTF measuring system (A1)* using 46-megapixel Foveon direct image sensors. Even previously undetectable high-frequency details are now within the scope of our quality control inspections. All SIGMA 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary lenses are checked using this A1 system before they are shipped.
