Questions our customers asked
Will this lens work on my full-frame Sony camera (A7 series)?
No. This is a "DC" lens, which is Sigma's designation for APS-C-only lenses. It is built for Sony APS-C E-mount bodies (like the A6000-series or A6700) and does not cover a full-frame sensor. If you shoot a full-frame Sony body (A7/A9/A1 series), please choose a full-frame ("DG") lens instead.
What's in the box with this lens?
The lens, a protective pouch, the lens hood (LH706-03), a front cap (LCF-67 IV) and a rear cap (LCR III).
How much zoom range does this lens really give me?
It's an 18.8x zoom, 16-300mm on an APS-C Sony body, which is roughly equivalent to a 24-450mm full-frame field of view. That covers wide-angle group and landscape shots through to distant wildlife or sports in one lens, with built-in stabilization rated at 6 stops at the wide end and 4.5 stops at the telephoto end.
One lens, wide angle to super-telephoto — built for Sony APS-C only.
IMPORTANT — APS-C sensor only: this is a "DC" lens, Sigma's designation for APS-C-format lenses. It is designed and image-circle-matched for Sony APS-C E-mount bodies (e.g. A6000-series, A6700). It will not cover a full-frame Sony sensor (e.g. A7-series) — do not buy this lens for a full-frame Sony body.
On an APS-C Sony body, the Sigma 16-300mm F3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary gives an 18.8x zoom ratio, roughly equivalent to 24-450mm in full-frame terms — travel, wildlife, everyday and telephoto reach in a single lens.
