SIGMA has announced the 12mm F1.4 DC Contemporary, claiming it as the world’s widest autofocus F1.4 lens designed for APS-C cameras. The lens will be available for Sony E, FUJIFILM X, and Canon RF mounts starting September 4, 2025. Let’s take a closer look. SIGMA’s pace of releasing new lenses seems to have accelerated, and this time, the company is announcing a very wide and fast lens for APS-C cameras. Alongside this lens, a 200mm F2 DG OS Sport lens was also announced. More about the new SIGMA 200mm F2 lens, here. Technical features The lens features a stepping motor for autofocus, which SIGMA claims provides fast and precise focusing for both still images and video. Focus breathing has been minimized to maintain consistent framing during focus pulls – a key consideration for video work. All three mount versions include an aperture ring; the Canon RF mount version features a control ring that can be customized according to user preferences. Weather sealing includes dust and moisture resistance, plus a water and oil-repellent coating on the front element. However, SIGMA notes this is not a waterproof design.
