Sigma 18-50mm F2.8 DC DN | C for Sony E

Used for a trip in the lake district and was blown away, lens is absolutely great and extremely sharp. autofocus is responsive and quite. lens does have some slight distortion and fringing but nothing that can’t be sorted in post. overall a great lens perfect if you don’t want to take multiple prime lens about.

I was looking for a general purpose lens to go with my new Sony a6400. I liked the fact that it had an f2.8 aperture throughout which makes it good for bokeh (blurred background in portraits) and was good for land scapes too. I would have preferred 16 to 50mm for a wider field of view, but the f2.8 swayed me, being better than f4 in low light situations. Performance is excellent. Crisp clear images, very good colour rendition and overall very good value. For me it is just right.

I've had this lens for approximately 6 months and absolutely love it. I had a few reservations since it has a slightly more limited zoom range than its main rivals (Sony and Tamron) and doesn't have lens stabilisation. However, I have no regrets, the zoom range is just fine if you are prepared to move your position when composing and the image quality of the lens means I can work at slightly higher ISO values to avoid the risk of camera shake. The other great thing about this lens is the really short minimum focussing distance which allows you to get really close to your subject if needed, it almost feels like a macro lens. I have a Sony full frame camera but find myself using this camera/lens combination more and more due to it's smaller size and lighter weight.

I never go without with lens, I have a range of different Sony lenses as I shoot with the Sony ZV-E10, I shoot B-Roll and wanted to try different brands of lenses other than Sony. ... (You will not be disappointed with this 18-50mm lens from sigma!!) The blurred background of subjects is by far one of the best I've seen when photographing portraits as well as vlogging with this lens at 18mm , perfect! . Colours look great too.It's sharp , and focusing on like lightning with the right lighting conditions of course.A nice all rounder lens by sigma.

Just perfect for photos, but without stabilisation for video

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

Good lense all rounder if out and wants some shots used it for landscaping good f2 lenses light weight happy with it

Great lens, the features for photos and video meet expectations for home and semi-professional use. Compact and robust, I recommend it.
