  • Optimized to work where you'll probably be using it, there's not much more to say here that the review doesn't cover. If you need ultra, ultra-wide, you won't go wrong with the Sigma 8-16mm, and at present, there's not a whole lot else to choose from.Samp...

  • Very, very wide. One-of-a-kind lens.
  • Extreme distortion on the wide end. Relatively slow aperture. Softer at wide angles

  • Abstract:  With the short lens flange to sensor distance of current Compact System Cameras, by mounting a suitable adaptor a wide range of legacy lenses can be used. On Sony's new NEX-5n and NEX-7 this is made very efficient and enjoyable due to the availability of focus peaking. This allows the photographer to choose a colour (I use red) and a level of intensity (medium), and then when an MF lens is used in-focus areas shimmer in red. Combine this with two stages of on-screen or in-EVF image magnification, and manual focusing with legacy lenses...

  • Abstract:  I really like extreme lenses. Extremely wide, extremely fast, and extremely long lenses will all allow you to create unique images that stand out from the crowd. When I heard about the Sigma 8-16mm lens I wanted to get my hands on one and start shoot...

  • Die Leistung bei den kleinsten Brennweiten nicht voll überzeugen - zu schwach sind die Kontraste. Erst bei den längeren Brennweiten erreicht das Sigma 4,5–5,6/8–16 mm DC HSM akzeptable Werte....

  • Abstract:  Erst in der Endstellung bei 16 mm wird eine hohe Schärfe über das ganze Bild erzielt, und auch die mittlere Brennweite liefert ordentliche Bilder. Technische Daten und TestergebnisseTechnische Daten Linsen, Gruppen15 Linsen, 11 Gruppenäquivalente KB-...

  • Abstract:  Während bei offener Blende und 8 beziehungsweise 11 mm die Ecken noch drastisch schlechter als die Mitte sind, ändert sich das beim Abblenden: Die Mitte verliert durch Beugung an Schärfe, die Ecken werden dagegen kontrastreicher. Bei der längsten Brenn...

  • Abstract:  Avec les premiers reflex numériques grand public doté de capteurs APS-C (coefficient de multiplication environ 1,6x), les photographes avaient de la peine à trouver des optiques grands-angles. Il a fallu attendre que les principales marques renouvellen...
