Sigma 24mm f/2 DG DN Contemporary Lens For L-Mount

I have a Sigma FP and of course I ordered it with the 45mm originally. I tried a few other lenses before settling on the new Sigma 24mm Contemporary. I'm so glad I did! This lens is tack sharp from f2.8 and above and at f2 there's just the slightest softness, but barely noticeable. There's no vignetting at all on full frame. I've exercised this lens extensively in low light as well and it performs beautifully! Examples on YouTube/floridaambient

Perfect size and balance on Leica SL2-s. The rendering has a bit of character and after just comparing to the newly released Sigma 20mm, it has less distortion and I think is sharper across the field. Almost no flare seen. There is some softness in the corners at f/2 as expected. Micro contrast is not as high as so Leica lenses but a tenth the price! Build quality is excellent with metal construction and not to heavy. The placement of the focus and aperture rings seems just right and work well with gloves on. One minor disappointment is that the included magnetic lens cover (you get both a plastic snap on and metal magnetic) does not work if you have any filter on the front of the lens (uv, polarizer, ND etc). So far have never used the magnetic cover for that ... MorePerfect size and balance on Leica SL2-s.

So far have never used the magnetic cover for that reason - I have tried all the Sigma contemporary dg dn lenses and this is my favorite and most useful for the way I shot (mostly landscape). Great size for hiking too.

Solid, light weight, excellent for landscape and street photography. Great size-can carry around all day without tiring. Sharp from f/2.8 on up. Softness at 2.0 that creates a dreamy look. Excellent metal build and classy magnetic lens cap. Terrific lens at a good price.
