Beautiful details and bokeh for every scene
The high resolving power of the Sigma AF 24mm f/3.5 DG DN Contemporary Lens For Sony E-Mount covers the entire image from the centre to the edges, which means photographers can rely on edge-to-edge sharpness at all apertures when shooting wide-angle scenes.
