Ultra-Versatile All-in-One APS-C Travel Zoom – Groundbreaking 18.8x Zoom Ratio (24-450mm Full-Frame 35mm Equivalent), Optical Stabilization Powered by OS2 Algorithm (Up to 6.0 Stops at 16mm, 4.5 Stops at 300mm), High-Response Linear Actuator (HLA) Autofocus Motor for Rapid & Silent Focus Tracking, Half-Life-Size 1:2 Macro Magnification Ratio at 70mm, Advanced Optical Construction (Low Dispersion Glass Elements & 4 Precision Aspherical Elements), Controlled Focus Breathing for Video Production, Water- and Oil-Repellent Front Element Coating, Zoom Lock Switch, Dust- and Splash-Resistant Weather Sealing, Includes Front Snap-On Cap, Rear Lens Dust Cap, and Dedicated Petal-Type Lens Hood, Mirrorless APS-C Format (Excellent Condition)
The Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary is a versatile, high-magnification all-in-one superzoom lens engineered specifically for crop-sensor (APS-C) mirrorless camera systems. Providing a massive 18.8x zoom range with a 35mm equivalent focal span of 24-450mm, this optic replaces an entire multi-lens kit for travel photographers, outdoor explorers, sports shooters, and run-and-gun hybrid creators. From expansive 24mm wide-angle landscapes, city architecture, and tight interior views to 450mm super-telephoto captures of distant wildlife and fast-action sports, the lens manages diverse shooting scenarios without requiring a single lens swap.
Optical performance is anchored by an advanced optical assembly featuring premium low-dispersion glass elements and four precision-molded aspherical elements, effectively controlling chromatic aberrations, distortion, and spherical defects across the entire 18.8x zoom range. Optical Steadying is driven by Sigma’s updated OS2 image stabilization algorithm, delivering up to 6.0 stops of shake compensation at the wide 16mm end and 4.5 stops at the 300mm telephoto reach, enabling stable handheld shooting in low ambient light and at extreme magnification. Autofocus is powered by Sigma’s High-response Linear Actuator (HLA), which moves the optical focusing group swiftly, smoothly, and silently for reliable tracking of moving subjects and video recording with minimized focus breathing. With an impressive 1:2 macro magnification ratio at the 70mm focal mark, a durable dust- and splash-resistant construction, and a compact 4.8-inch travel-friendly footprint weighing just 1.4 pounds, this all-in-one zoom delivers complete versatility in top-tier shape.
CONDITION DIAGNOSTICS & PHYSICAL NOTES
Included Components: COMPLETE ALL-IN-ONE SUPERZOOM OUTFIT. Supplied with the Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary lens, genuine Sigma front snap-on lens cap, genuine Sigma rear lens dust cap, and dedicated original petal-type bayonet lens hood. (Camera bodies, screw-in filters, and storage pouches sold separately unless pictured).
Exterior & Barrel Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. The matte black Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) barrel, textured rubber zoom and manual focus control rings, zoom lock switch, and precision metal bayonet mount show minimal to no signs of previous handling, with no deep scratches, dings, scuffs, or edge finish wear. All laser-engraved focal length indicators, Sigma Contemporary series “C” badging, and barrel markings remain crisp, clean, and fully legible.
Optical Status: EXCELLENT CONDITION. Both front and rear external optical glass surfaces are pristine and completely free of scratches, scuffs, cleaning marks, haze, fungus, or element separation. The internal optical assembly is clean and clear with only trace, negligible dust specks typical of standard handling; bench testing confirms these specks do not impact resolving power, edge contrast, or color fidelity across working apertures. Anti-reflective multi-coatings and front water/oil-repellent coatings remain immaculate.
Mechanical & Electronic Diagnostics: FULLY FUNCTIONAL. The internal HLA linear actuator autofocus drive acquires focus swiftly, accurately, and silently; the zoom barrel mechanism extends and retracts smoothly across the entire 16-300mm range with consistent, factory-correct resistance; the physical zoom lock switch engages securely to prevent zoom creep; the OS2 optical stabilization system engages cleanly and steadies the frame; the diaphragm stops down crisply without sticking or oil residue; the lens mount locks solidly onto camera bodies with zero play; gold-plated electronic contacts communicate Exif metadata and in-body corrections reliably with zero camera error codes.
