Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM Overview

Covering a flexible ultra-wide range, the Nikon F-mount 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM from Sigma is a versatile zoom well-suited for landscape, architectural, and interior photography. The lens's optical design incorporates a series of low dispersion and aspherical elements, which help to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations throughout the zoom range, as well as contribute to improved sharpness and clarity. A Super Multi-Layer Coating is also used to suppress flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy. Benefitting the imaging attributes, a Hyper Sonic Motor also affords quick and quiet autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override.

Wide-angle zoom is designed for DX-format Nikon F-mount cameras and provides a 15-30mm equivalent focal length range.
Constant f/3.5 maximum aperture is suitable for working in available light conditions.
Two Extra-Low Dispersion (ELD) elements and one Special Low Dispersion (SLD) element are featured in the optical design, and help to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and color accuracy.
Four aspherical elements are used to help limit distortion and spherical aberrations and also contribute to greater overall sharpness and accurate rendering.
Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to individual elements to minimize flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions.
Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM), along with an internal focusing design, realizes quick and quiet autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override.
Minimum focusing distance of 9.4" is available throughout the zoom range.
Seven-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM Reviews

I love this lens!

By Ozrider
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2023-06-28

I bought this lens for some video work since I wasn't happy with the fisheye effect from my 10mm and the 35mm just didn't cut it. I love the way I can adjust this lens to give me the wide angle I need to get the whole background and yet not get the distortion that comes with a pure fisheye. Sure, there's a little distortion but I can control how much I want and still have a very wide view of my target. Plus, it's relatively cheap!

Good lens, great seller

Just wanted to replace my old version (4-5.6) with the newer one before it discontinued. Also my old one has a very soft left side (not uncommon for wide angle lenses). I pulled the trigger on this one and I am satisfied with the purchase. This version (3.5) has a bit softer corners, especially when aperture is wide open, but comparable with my old lens. If you close it to 7.1-8 - it is sharp. This lens has a slightly softer right bottom corner, but it's acceptable. Much better than my old lens. I would recommend this lens if you need wide angle and not a pixel peeler. It is good lens and great landscaping photography or architectural. Will use it to take pictures of houses for sale too.

I needed a wider lens and when I saw this on a one day sale I jumped on it. I have other Sigma lenses and am happy with them. I have three Nikon cameras that I would use it on. I checked it out on two of them, a D200 and D810. I set it everywhere between 10 & 20 mm and had it focus on subjects between 10 inches and infinity. I was very happy with the results and surprised with how well it worked close up. I chose the Sigma over the Nikon lens that was only $6 or $7 dollars more, because the Sigma has a metal mount where as the Nikon's mount is plastic. So yes, I'm really happy with this lens and would definitely recommend it.

Excellent landscape lens

Well conceived wide angle lens that does what it's suppose to do. Fixed 3.5 aperture for low light opportunities.

Big Surprise

I did a direct comparson of the Sigma 10-20 f/3.5 against my Sigma 17-50 f/2.8 and my Tokina 11-16 f/2.8. All shots were performed on my Nikon D7500. I shot real world and did not use a lens chart template. The Sigma 10-20 f/3.5 was equal to or bested each of these lenses. I judged optical clarity (even the corners of the frame) including color and contrast. From reviews, I was sceptical of the capability of the Sigma 10-20, but after testing, it is definitely going to find a permanant place in my Nikon camera bag. p.s. the photo was only cropped and lightened. No other editing. I think optical sharpness is fantastic.

Great lens for the money

It takes sharp pics on my APS D 5300 after processing. I shoot raw and my software also corrects edge sharpness to same sharpness as in center. Worth the money!

Great wide angle lens

Extremely happy with this lens. Great quality. And the wide angle extended my options on focal lengths in my set of lens.

question

Can I use with Nikon D 7200. Do is support auto focus?
Asked by: Anonymous
Absolutely. I use it with a D7100 and it's a great lens. Be aware, though, that there is an older version of this lens that requires a firmware upgrade to focus properly with D5300, D5500, and presumably, the D7200. The way to tell if you have the new, upgraded version is to check the side of the box for D5300 Compatible . I would assume a high-volume outfit like B&H would exclusively be selling the new one, but it never hurts to check.If you do end up with the older version, it needs to be sent to Sigma for a free firmware upgrade.

Which lens is better? Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM Lens or Sigma EX DC HSM Aspherical IF 10-20mm f/4.0-5.6 HSM EX DC Lens? Thanks.
Asked by: Paul
The Sigma 10-20mm f/4-5.6 is an older discontinued lens than the f/3.5 version. Optically the 3.5 is better and is faster for low light shooting.

Yes, but be aware that there are multiple versions of this lens. Make sure the lens box has the phrase D5300 Compatible on it. There are some focusing issues with the older copies of this lens that requires a firmware update from Sigma.

Would this work for a D700 or do you have a better more moderately priced lens you can recommend?
Asked by: Kim
While I love this lens, I do not believe it's compatible with a D700. It's a DX format lens and I use it with my Nikon D7100. Nothing's cheap, at least if you want quality pictures, but if I was considering a wide lens for a full-frame, I'd look at the Nikon AF Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 D. You might be able to pick it up used at B&H for under $300. I've bought used lens from them and have no complaints.

Thank you for waiting. This Sigma 10-20mm f/3.5 EX DC HSM Lens would be better since it offers a constant aperture through the zoom range.
