Combining a comfortable wide-angle design with an ultra-fast maximum aperture, the 16mm f/1.4 DC DN is part of Sigma's Contemporary series of lenses and designed for use with APS-C-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. Characterized by its bright f/1.4 maximum aperture, this lens is adept at working in low-light conditions and also affords increased control over depth of field for selective focus control. The optical design makes use of several low dispersion and aspherical elements, which control color fringing and various aberrations in order to provide high sharpness and clarity throughout the aperture range. Individual elements also feature a super multilayered coating to suppress flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions. Benefitting the optical assets, this lens also sports a stepping AF motor for quick, quiet, and smooth focusing performance that suits both still photography as well as video applications.

is this lens good for the Sony A7Riii ?
is this lens good for the Sony A7Riii ?
Not really, this is a lens for cropped sensors and will reduce the resolution by about 40%. If you are searching Sigma lenses, make sure they have a DG designation instead of a DC designation.

What are the physical dimensions of the lens with the hood attached? I have ordered the lens and looking to get a lens case that fits the lens with the hood on. Thanks
The lens by itself is approximately 2.84 x 3.63 / 72.2 x 92.3 mm. The hood adds about 2.41 /61.21mm for a total of 5.24 /133.3mm.

I'm thinking of using this lens on an IR-modified Sony A6400. Any reports of IR hotspots with this lens?
Unfortunately, I ended up purchasing this lens to use with my IR-converted A6400 camera. The IR hotspots are HORRIBLE when using this lens!

How does this lens compare to the Sony Zeiss 16-70mm f/4 lens? I shoot primarily landscapes. When shooting multi-image panoramas at 16mm, the stitching software (LR, PS, Hugin) has trouble creating a pano without alot of distortion. Just wonder if this prime lens might do a better job?
I'm not familiar with the Zeiss lens, but have been able to create some very satisfactory Panoramas with edge to edge sharpness. I'm quite pleased with the lens and would heartily recommend it to anyone.

how is this different from the kit 16-50mm powerzoom my camera came with, I'm worried they are too similar and I am wasting money?
Like my friends before me answered, I just wanted to highlight how sharp and good in low light this lens is. Superb.
