How to Use the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Canon RF

Ехраnѕіvе f2.8 Ареrturе

The Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 DC DN Contemporary Lens features a large f2.8 aperture while covering an 18-50mm focal range. This design encourages the creation of a smooth bokeh effect behind the in-focus subject, which is particularly noticeable in close-up portraiture. The lens includes an intricately crafted optical configuration with 13 elements in 10 groups, including three high-precision glass-moulded aspherical elements. This configuration, combined with a minimised total number of elements, enhances overall image quality. In-camera aberration correction further eliminates optical imperfections, such as distortion and vignetting.
