BEST SIGMA CAMERA LENSES
Camera mounts and Sigma lenses
Sigma lenses are some of the best options for popular camera brands including Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax, Leica, and cine options.
When choosing Sigma camera lenses, make sure to select the appropriate mount type for your specific camera. If you need to brush up on popular lens mounts, check out our guide to camera lens mounts.
Links to the Sigma lenses may only have one option for a specific lens mount, but that does NOT mean that a Sigma lens for your camera doesn’t exist or is unavailable at the moment.

Sigma has successfully gone to great lengths to become the an alternative option for lenses for many DSLR, and (some) mirrorless cameras.
Sony has a limited number of lens options, which is why many Sony users will often bridge the gap with Sigma lenses both for A mount and E mount.
Which brings us to the Sigma mirrorless options…
Sigma seems to have focused purely on Sony and Leica when it comes to mirrorless mount compatibility, but they may soon have more options.

Sigma Lens Test | DSI Pictures
This is a nice fast prime lens with really good bokeh. Really durable build, and a large lens for a 50mm. The auto-focus is quick and somewhat quiet, but there have been a lot of reported auto-focus issues with Sigma.

Another fast prime lens with a lot of the same qualities of the 50mm. The 35mm focal length allows for really shallow depth of field with the wide angle. There is some rather large vignetting, so keep this in mind.

This macro lens give you some really nice bokeh, it is super compact and lightweight. No image stabilization, but the macro ability is really useful. Make sure to use on a tripod as much as you can for high resolution.

This is the widest of the Sigma art lenses on this list, and it also happens to be the most expensive. The aperture and angle are really nice for filmmaking and travel videos, but also great for photography.
Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art Lens
Sigma Lens Price: $850
- EF/F/A/E/P/L Mount

Sigma Lens Test | Christopher Frost Photography
All of the Sigma art lenses are really fast, and because of this you can achieve really shallow depth of field. 24mm is a nice focal length to have, but since it is a prime, you'll have to decide if it's as important as 35mm or 14mm.
Sigma 135mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art Lens
Sigma Lens Price: $1400
- EF/F/A/E/P/L Mount
- Full-frame
- Max: f/1.8
Sigma Lens Test | Jared Polin
This is a really sharp lens that works really well for portrait photography, but also as a nice filmmaking lens for telephoto uses. Great bokeh, even at the slower aperture rating. Expensive - so make sure you need this lens.

This is one of the best zoom lenses Sigma has to offer. It holds up with the classic lens brands like Canon and Nikon, and give a really sharp picture edge to edge. It comes in a few hundred dollars under top competitors.

The optical stabilization on this lens is really nice, and that’s because this lens is built to capture moving objects at long distances. That’s important because this lens is truly built for sports or nature photography.

These Sigma cine zoom lenses are a great choice for professional cinematographers, and they are really compact and well priced considering the price for a similar Zeiss zoom lens is twice as much.
They feature a front diameter of 95mm, which is smaller than traditional cine lenses (114mm). They are great lenses for cinema, documentaries, music videos, commercials, or any other high-end video needs.
These zooms won’t work with full frame cameras like 5D or A7iii.

This lens is mainly here because it fills in the missing focal length if you already have the two previous Sigma cine zoom lenses from above.
The picture quality for all of the Sigma cine lenses is pretty consistent, so the only reason to choose one over the other would be your preference and the desire to cover the entire focal length range.

This is the longest of all the Sigma cine lenses, and it really nice. This is a lens that will capture images in 8K really well. When making a film or music video, there is always a chance to get some extra production value with a really long lens like this, so make sure to take advantage.
