Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Fujifilm X Summary
Despite being extremely well established with numerous other camera systems, Sigma is a relatively new choice for Fujifilm X mirrorless users. That is set to change with the release of the Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens for Fujifilm X, which arrives as a brilliant Sigma lens for Fuji creators.
The 23mm f/1.4 DC DN prime lens is designed exclusively for APS-C format cameras which results in an extremely compact and lightweight model, weighing just 340g, with a versatile 35mm equivalent focal length (full-frame format). This is ideal for all sorts of subjects, particularly when combined with the bright f/1.4 aperture and 9-blade rounded diaphragm. These benefits ensure you can capture stunning portraits with great separation, street photography and landscapes as well as travel and day to day snapshots.
Sigma has included a solid brass X mount with dust and moisture seal, as well as proprietary lens coatings to reduce flare and ghosting. A Stepping Motor is compatible with subject detection and keeps pace with high-speed camera Autofocus found in many Fuji cameras.

Our Verdict
With its combination of versatile focal width, bright maximum aperture and sharp results, the Sigma 23mm f/1.4 DC DN Contemporary Lens is sure to prove extremely popular with Fujifilm X photographers. An effective optical formula and compact housing has been developed exclusively for APS-C format cameras, which makes this Contemporary lens small, light and extremely portable. Naturally as we have come to expect from Sigma, the results speak for themselves with well controlled aberrations and sharp details throughout. Lens flare is well controlled and you can render beautiful bokeh with silky smooth defocus areas using the widest aperture.
The lens allows you to experiment with a shallow depth of field, in order to separate the subject and make your images pop, while also being highly capable for low light shooting. This is ideal when capturing handheld subjects such as street photography, travel or family and pet portraits.
The stepping motor is fast and quiet and you can continue shooting even if there’s light rain or dust in the air, as the lens mount has been sealed.
