Premium Optics
The Sigma 23mm f1.4 DC DN I Contemporary Lens owes its sharpness and detail-rich results to its advanced optical design. With thirteen elements intricately arranged into ten groups, this lens captures each and every frame with perfect clarity.

Combined with the wide f1.4 aperture, the Sigma 23mm f1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens is the perfect option for working in low-light and back-lit environments.
Focusing Flexibility
Driving this intricate optical design is Sigma’s quiet and high-speed stepping motor.
