About this item:
he SIGMA 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | Contemporary is SIGMA’s first mirrorless zoom for crop sensor cameras. With a full-frame equivalent focal range of 27-75mm, it combines exceptional versatility with an ultra small and light body, superb build quality and impressive optical performance. It also boasts a large F2.8 constant aperture that is ideal for creating blurry backgrounds, and allowing easier low-light shooting without the need for a tripod. The lens is perfect for a wide range of photo and video applications including landscapes, portraits, street photography, architecture and events, and it can also be used for macro-style close-up photography owing to its maximum magnification of 1:2.8 that allows a minimum focusing distance of just 12.1cm. Autofocus is exceptionally fast and quiet thanks to the lens’ stepping motor, which can be particularly useful for shooting video, or for capturing fast-moving subjects.

5.0 out of 5 stars Versatile lens!
I’ve been using this lens for a couple of months now and I’m really happy with it. The 18-50mm focal range is super versatile on my apsc camera. The aperture is good at 2.8, which makes a fairly light lens that produces a very sharp image with a beautiful bokeh. The autofocus also works well with both my Sony’s cameras. Very happy with it!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great little lens
I’ve not been into photography long but this lens has so many good reviews and they don’t disappoint. This thing is a great little lens. Ideal for many shots scenarios. Great value for money as well.
5.0 out of 5 stars Simply a great lens
The photo forums seem to agree that this is one of the best lenses to have for your Sony A6xxx. I can only agree and love it. Its not the most compact, obviously, but its well built, super sharp, and F2.8
5.0 out of 5 stars Small, sharp, lightweight lens
Used this on holiday with a Sony a6700 for a compact travel camera. Combined with a viltrox 13mm and the Sony 70-350 gives you pretty much all the coverage you could want.Fast hassle free focus. Best thing is it's so light. Just a shame it wasn't a bit wider like a 16mm.Great value for money and whilst the build quality isn't up there with Nikon Z mount. It's plenty good enough
4.0 out of 5 stars GREAT LENS
Bought this lens I only had the Sony G lens 35mm and needed 24-70mm but this sigma 18-50mm is sharp I love it, gives me quality image for my YouTube channel.
5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect partner for the Sony A6700
This lens is small and lightweight. It works really well with the Sony A6700. It is fast and accurate. Great Sigma optics.
5.0 out of 5 stars Professional quality for fraction of the money
This lens has been praised in different reviews. Not a single poor review. So I had to test it.- Sharp from corner to corner at f4.0, with all focal lengths- Fast lens, f2.8 for a zoom- Focuses ultra-fast even on A6000.- Images at f2.8 are very good, excellent sharpness in the middle.- Equivalent from Sony is around £1,400 and seems to be less good. This lens is around £400!!- Professional level feel, forget those plasticky kit lenses- Tamron has similar offering, not this kind of quality though. Price neary 2x.In summary, if you have APS-C sensor camera, this is you number 1 lens. Period.* * * * * Highly Recommended * * * * *

Best value lens in my kit
I'm a photographer that shoot most of my stuff while hiking and travelling. Size, Performance and versatility are my three biggest factors. Usually, I have to compromise pretty heavily between them. Last year I hiked in Zion for a week with the Sony 16F2.8, Which was amazing for keeping the weight down on long high-mileage days, and virtually disappeared on the camera. This was in exchange for meh results and a lot of lens flare and aberration. This year I decided to suck up the size, and took a Sigma 16F1.4. The weight was reasonable, and the pictures were amazing, but the lens itself was a chonk and it was frequently in the way. Both of these lenses also lacked versatility, resulting in a lot of shots where I shot wide and sucked it up for a heavy crop in post.Enter the Sigma 18-50f2.8. Pictures are sharp as a tack, check. Common 55mm Filter size, check. Small package, check. Reasonable weight, functional zoom range, decently wide aperture etc. It frankly does it all, and does it without being fat, heavy, obtrusive or expensive. Is it my favorite lens? No. It's frankly, just a little boring. It doesn't have a niche. It is however ASTOUNDINGLY capable. It's great to watch a player who shoots from half court, has handles like a Globetrotter or will dunk over 3 defenders, but this lens is the guy on the team who is a solid 9/10 in every fundamental and plays everything textbook. It's not a "fun" lens, but it will absolutely get the job done capably in every situation, in a smaller package and half the price of it's competitors.The minor gripes: The focus/zoom rings are annoying. They're flush with the barrel and I frequently have trouble finding the right one by instinct. They're smooth, but not intuitive to find. The lens hood when stowed also gets in the way of the rings. There is also no image stabilization. As a photographer, this doesn't bother me a bit. If you're a videographer, this will probably be a big problem if you don't have in-body image stabilization or a gimbal.
Increíble calidad óptica, ligero y a un precio imbatible
El objetivo Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 para Sony ha superado todas mis expectativas. La calidad óptica es impresionante, con imágenes nítidas, un excelente contraste y un hermoso bokeh que hace que cada toma destaque. La apertura constante de f/2.8 es perfecta para condiciones de poca luz y proporciona un control creativo del desenfoque del fondo.Además, la ligereza del objetivo lo hace ideal para llevarlo a todas partes, sin añadir peso innecesario al equipo. Esto es especialmente valioso para la fotografía de viajes o para quienes, como yo, prefieren un set-up más portátil y cómodo sin comprometer la calidad.Por si fuera poco, el precio es increíblemente competitivo en comparación con otras opciones similares en el mercado. Es difícil encontrar una combinación de rendimiento y costo tan atractiva en un objetivo de estas características.Sin duda, una excelente inversión para cualquier fotógrafo que busque calidad y versatilidad sin necesidad de arruinarse ¡Totalmente recomendado!
bonne approche
Pour mon A6700 cet objectif fait le job. C'est super de pouvoir s'approcher du sujet comme pour faire de la macro. Lumineux, pas lourd, net, ok pour moi.
