The Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary for Canon RF is a fast wide-angle prime for APS-C cameras, giving a 25.6mm equivalent view with an F1.4 aperture. It is a well-proven design that stays sharp wide open, which suits night skies, interiors and low-light street photography.

Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary for Canon RF, image quality

Image quality

There are 16 elements in 13 groups, including three FLD, two SLD and two aspherical elements, which keep the lens sharp across the frame even at F1.4 and hold back colour fringing and coma. Super Multi-Layer Coating cuts flare against bright light, and a nine-blade rounded aperture gives smooth background blur.
Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary for Canon RF, autofocus and video

Autofocus and video

The focus group is light, so the stepping motor can move it quickly and almost silently, which suits video as well as stills. Focusing is internal, and the mount has a seal against dust and splashes.

Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary for Canon RF, who it's for

Who it's for

This is for Canon R7, R10 and R50 owners who want a fast wide prime for street, astro and low-light video. If size and weight matter more, the Sigma 15mm F1.4 DC for Canon RF is much lighter at 240g, and the Sigma 12mm F1.4 DC goes wider for night skies. Only the R7 has in-body stabilisation; the lens has none.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Sigma 16mm F1.4 equivalent to on Canon RF?

It gives the same view as a 25.6mm lens on full frame.

Is the Sigma 16mm F1.4 good for astrophotography?

Yes. F1.4 lets you keep exposures short, and the optical design keeps coma under control so stars stay reasonably sharp toward the edges.

Sigma 16mm F1.4 DC DN or Sigma 15mm F1.4 DC?

The 15mm is the newer, smaller design at 240g, and slightly wider. The 16mm is heavier at 415g and takes 67mm filters.

Does the Sigma 16mm F1.4 have image stabilisation?

No. It relies on in-body stabilisation where the camera has it.

How heavy is the Sigma 16mm F1.4?

415g.

67mm.
