Sigma Corporation Unveils Revolutionary 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary Lens
Ronkonkoma, New York – (Newsfile Corp. – September 9, 2025) – Sigma Corporation of America, an esteemed subsidiary of Sigma Corporation based in Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan, is excited to announce the upcoming launch of the Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary lens.
This groundbreaking lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras is slated for release in late September 2025. It proudly holds the title of the world’s first 10x zoom lens starting at an ultra-wide 20mm focal length tailored explicitly for full-frame mirrorless systems.
The Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary is an exceptional all-in-one zoom lens, seamlessly transitioning from ultra-wide landscapes to telephoto shots within a single, compact form factor. The broader 20mm starting point distinguishes it from conventional high-power zoom lenses, facilitating effortless photography of expansive vistas, intimate details, and dynamic action.
Weighing merely 550 grams and measuring 4.5 inches, this lens is particularly suited for travelers and everyday photographers, making it an ideal companion for capturing life’s fleeting moments.
Featuring a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 at focal lengths spanning 28mm to 85mm, the lens allows for expansive backgrounds that create depth at 28mm, while also enabling extensive background blurring at 85mm for a polished aesthetic. Even at its upper telephoto range of 200mm, the lens maintains a respectable magnification ratio of 1:3.3, permitting detailed close-up shots.
Impeccably swift and precise autofocus is powered by Sigma’s cutting-edge HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor, ensuring rapid subject acquisition and reliable tracking capabilities.
The optical architecture is meticulously engineered, integrating four aspherical elements, one FLD glass element, and three SLD glass elements. This sophisticated configuration, paired with an internal mechanism designed to maintain the precision of each zoom group, yields exceptional performance across the entire zoom spectrum, effectively correcting aberrations while minimizing flare and ghosting.
The Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary lens will be available in late September through authorized Sigma dealers across the United States for both Sony E-mount and L-Mount, priced at $999 USD.
Specifications are based on the L-Mount variant.
