Covering opposite ends of the creative spectrum, Sigma’s new 12mm F1.4 DC DN Contemporary and 200mm F2 DG OS Sports deliver creatives more ways to frame their shots.

Contemporary 12mm F1.4 DC

The 12mm f1.4 is made for APS-C mirrorless cameras. Compact at 225g and 69.4mm long, it delivers high-resolution images with minimal focus breathing. Its focal length makes it perfect for landscapes, vlogs and handheld video. Expect to pick it up in Sony E, Fujifilm X or Canon RF mounts.

Sports 200mm F2 DG OS

At the other end, the 200mm F2 DG OS Sports brings telephoto reach to full-frame mirrorless cameras. Its F2 aperture creates a shallow depth of field, while autofocus and built-in stabilisation help keep shots steady.

Built for demanding conditions, it features thermal insulation paint, weather sealing and a redesigned tripod socket. It’s offered in Sony E and L-Mount, making it ready for sports, events, portraits or any time you need to get close from afar.

Both lenses include features aimed at helping mirrorless filmmakers get the shots they want – whether sweeping wide or zooming in tight.
