Sigma 50–120mm f/2.8 DC OS Contemporary lens, Fuji X

The Sigma 50–120mm f/2.8 DC OS Contemporary is a telephoto zoom lens designed for APS-C cameras in the Fujifilm X system. Its constant f/2.8 aperture and focal length range equivalent to approximately 75–180 mm in 35 mm format make it suitable for portrait, product and video photography. Measuring 99 mm in length and weighing 390 g, the lens is easy to take with you when travelling.

Brightness across the entire zoom range

The aperture remains at f/2.8 regardless of the focal length, which makes it easier to take photographs in low light. The telephoto perspective and large aperture produce a soft background and clearly isolate the subject from its surroundings. Perspective compression gives product shots a calm and controlled look.

Focus for stills and video

The HLA linear motor controls autofocus quickly and smoothly. Focus breathing is minimised, so the framing remains stable whilst focusing during video recording. The simplified layout of the controls makes the lens straightforward to use in day-to-day work.
