Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens (Canon RF-Mount)
The Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN is a high-speed, wide-angle prime designed specifically for APS-C format Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras. Providing the highly sought-after 35mm equivalent focal length, this lens offers a “storyteller’s perspective” that is ideal for street photography, landscapes, journalism, and everyday documentation. As part of Sigma’s Contemporary line, it combines a lightweight, compact footprint with a bright f/1.4 aperture to deliver professional performance in any lighting condition.

Versatile “Storyteller” Perspective
Classic 35mm Equivalent: The 23mm focal length provides a natural field of view that closely mimics human vision, making it incredibly versatile for everything from environmental portraits to architectural shots.

Bright f/1.4 Maximum Aperture: The fast aperture excels in low-light environments and allows for significant creative control over depth of field. Combined with a 9-blade diaphragm, it produces a smooth, circular bokeh that beautifully isolates your subject from the background.

Advanced Optical Layout: Featuring 13 elements in 10 groups—including three SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements and two aspherical elements—this lens is engineered to deliver high resolution and edge-to-edge clarity while minimizing optical aberrations.

Close-Up Capability: With a minimum focusing distance of just 9.9 inches, you can capture unique close-up shots with a wide-angle perspective, adding depth and intimacy to your compositions.

Optimized for Stills and Video
Fast, Precise Autofocus: The inner focus system utilizes a quiet stepping motor for rapid and accurate AF. This makes it an excellent choice for both high-resolution photography and fluid, silent focus transitions during video recording.

In-Camera Compatibility: This lens is fully compatible with in-camera image stabilization and lens-based optical corrections on supported Canon RF-mount bodies, ensuring your images remain sharp and distortion-free.

Rugged Construction: Built with a brass bayonet mount for long-term mounting precision, the lens also features a dust- and splash-resistant design to handle the demands of shooting in the field.
