The all-new Sigma 16-300mm F3.5-6.7 DC OS | Contemporary features an 18.8x zoom ratio, the world’s largest*1 for an APS-C format mirrorless lens. Covering the entire range from wide-angle to super-telephoto, this extremely versatile lens brings the full range of photographic subjects within reach, from landscapes and portraits to wildlife and sports photography.
With a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2, the 16-300mm F3.5-6.7 DC OS | Contemporary captures detailed close-ups with ease. Its HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor provides exceptionally fast, smooth and accurate autofocus - ideal for fast-moving subjects such as birds and aircraft. The lens offers 6 stops of image stabilization at the wide end and 4.5 stops*2 at the telephoto end, helping photographers achieve blur-free results even at longer focal lengths and in low light. This ultra versatile all-in-one zoom is the perfect tool for creative photographers who want to work in a wide range of photographic genres.

What our Experts Think

Unbeatable all‑in‑one versatility: With an 18.8× zoom range covering from 16–300 mm (equivalent to ~24–450 mm on APS‑C), this lens replaces multiple zooms — ideal for travel, landscapes, portraits, wildlife and everyday shooting.
Excellent portability: At just ~615 g and compact build, it’s much easier to carry than multiple lenses, making it a top pick for walk‑around and holiday photography.
Strong optical performance: Sharp, reliable results across the zoom range with good control of aberrations and minimal distortion — impressive for such a broad zoom ratio.
Fast, smooth autofocus & stabilization: High‑response Linear Actuator (HLA) delivers quick, quiet focusing and OS2 optical stabilization (up to ~6 stops) keeps shots steady even at long focal lengths.
Close‑up & creative flexibility: 1:2 macro‑like magnification at ~70 mm expands creative options for close subjects without swapping lenses.
Excellent value: Nearly matches the convenience of multiple lenses at a competitive price, earning Editor’s Choice and awards recognition in its class.
Considerations: Variable aperture and some softness at long telephoto ends mean this isn’t a specialist prime — trade‑offs typical for an ultra‑zoom.
