Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Overview
By Photo’s Matt Cottom A fast-aperture wide-angle prime for APS-C-format mirrorless cameras, the Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens provides a field of view equivalent to 35mm on a full-frame camera. Offered here with a Leica L-mount, this lens delivers high resolution along with beautiful bokeh effects thanks to its large f/1.4 maximum aperture.
