Sigma 20–200mm f/3.5–6.3 DG Contemporary Lens
Capture everything from sweeping landscapes to tight sports action—all without ever changing a lens—with the Sigma 20–200mm f/3.5–6.3 DG Contemporary Lens. This all-in-one zoom delivers the versatility of multiple focal lengths in a single, portable design that doesn’t compromise on sharpness, color accuracy, or autofocus performance. With a 1:2 maximum magnification ratio, the lens is also capable of impressive close-up work, while the broad f/3.5–6.3 aperture range offers reliable exposure control across any shooting scenario. Compact yet powerful, it’s a travel-ready solution for photographers who want to stay light without losing creative range.
Compact and Durable Construction
Weighing only 1.2 lb and measuring just 4.5 inches when retracted, the 20–200mm is built for maximum portability while maintaining a massive zoom range—from ultra-wide 20mm to telephoto 200mm. A zoom lock switch prevents unwanted lens extension, but it can also be disengaged instantly by rotating the zoom ring, ensuring you never miss a moment. The exterior features a focus mode switch for intuitive control, and the lens is finished with a water- and oil-repellent coating on the front element to resist fingerprints and smudges. Its dust- and splash-resistant build makes it reliable for fieldwork and outdoor use, even in unpredictable conditions.
Advanced Optical Performance
Designed with 18 elements in 14 groups, including four aspherical, three SLD, and one FLD element, the lens ensures excellent image quality across the zoom range. This complex optical structure minimizes distortion and chromatic aberration while maintaining consistent sharpness from edge to edge. A 9-blade rounded diaphragm produces soft, natural bokeh that enhances subject separation in both portraits and macro-style close-ups. Sigma’s Super Multi-Layer Coating further enhances contrast and reduces flare or ghosting when shooting under backlit conditions, preserving color fidelity even in challenging lighting.
Fast and Quiet Autofocus
Powered by Sigma’s High-response Linear Actuator (HLA) motor, autofocus performance is both swift and virtually silent, making it equally suitable for stills and video work. Internal focusing ensures stability throughout the zoom range, maintaining accurate focus and balance as you move from wide to telephoto. This responsive system captures fleeting moments with precision—whether tracking moving subjects or composing detailed macro shots.
