Sigma Contemporary 16mm f/1.4 DC DN 16mm
{ "review": "Die Kombination aus 16mm Festbrennweite (24mm KB-äquivalent) und einer durchgängigen f/1.4-Blende ermöglicht selbst bei schwachem Licht eine exzellente Freistellung und Schärfe – trotz des wetterfesten Gehäuses wiegt es nur 405g. Der leise Schrittmotor-Autofokus und die Super-Multi-Layer-Beschichtung liefern präzise Video-fähige Fokussierung und hohen Kontrast ohne störende Reflexionen. Das Objektiv eignet sich besonders für Porträt- und Eventfotografen mit Nikon-Z-APS-C-Kameras, die eine tragbare, robuste Weitwinkellösung mit professioneller Bildqualität suchen." }
