An all-rounder that empowers limitless creativity.
The world’s first*1 10x zoom starting at an ultra-
wide 20mm.

The Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary is the world’s first high-
power zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras that achieves both
20mm at the wide end and a 10x zoom ratio.

This versatile zoom lens covers everything from ultra-wide 20mm to
telephoto 200mm, allowing photographers to capture subjects ranging from
sweeping landscapes to fast-paced sports without being constrained by
distance. Its flexibility makes it ideal for a wide variety of scenes, including
close-ups with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2. With its broad
expressive capabilities, the lens truly shines in travel photography and
everyday snapshots.

The lens delivers a consistently comfortable shooting experience, with its
thoroughly compact and lightweight design, as well as fast, accurate
autofocus powered by a linear motor HLA (High-response Linear Actuator).

Key Features

Remarkable Image Quality with Ultra-Wide Angle & F1.4 Aperture

The world’s first 20-200mm for unleashing creative freedom

Zoom versatility meets expressive ultra-wide 20mm, in one lens.
The lens covers the ultra-wide angle of 20mm, which has been difficult to
achieve with conventional high-power zoom lenses. Handling everything
from majestic landscapes to sports, the lens perfectly captures both scenes
unique to ultra-wide angles and applications that take advantage of its
telephoto range. With a comprehensive zoom range of 20mm to 200mm,
this ultimate all-in-one zoom lens delivers stunning details across a wide
variety of shooting situations.

Maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 at the focal lengths of 28-85mm
The lens achieves a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 at the focal lengths
from 28mm to 85mm, enabling photographers to enjoy a broad range of
half-macro photography with different angles of view, from wide macro
shots that boldly incorporate the background by moving closer to the
subject, to medium telephoto macro shots that highlight the subject at a
natural distance.

Compact and lightweight design that delivers exceptional mobility
Thoroughly compact and lightweight design

This lens is the world's first to achieve a vast zoom range from ultra-wide
20mm to telephoto 200mm, while weighing only 550g and measuring just
115.5mm in length*1. The zoom ring diameter is a very slim 70.4mm, making
it highly portable. Without worrying about size or weight, the lens provides
extensive creative flexibility in any situation, from everyday snapshots to
travel photography.

Optical and mechanical design realizing both compact size and high
performance

Incorporating high-refractive-index glass materials reduces lens movement
during zooming. This enables a simple internal structure and slim lens body.
The optical design, which properly positions four double-sided aspherical
lenses, one FLD glass, and three SLD glass elements, combined with an
internal mechanism that maintains high precision in each zoom group, also
delivers high performance across the entire zoom range.
High-speed autofocus and versatile features for effortless shooting.

HLA-driven high-speed AF

To help photographers capture even the most fleeting moments, the lens
uses an HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) to achieve high-speed
autofocus functionality with excellent drive accuracy.

Dust- and splash-resistant structure*1 and water- and oil-repellent
coating

In addition to a dust- and splash-resistant structure, the front element of the
lens features a water- and oil-repellent coating, allowing photographers to
shoot without concerns even in harsh outdoor environments.

*1 The structure is designed to be dust- and splash- resistant, but not waterproof. Be careful not to bring the lens in contact with a large amount of water. Water inside the lens may cause major damage and even
render the lens unrepairable.

Equipped with a zoom lock switch at the wide end

The lens features a zoom lock switch that can be fixed at the wide end to
prevent the lens from extending unintentionally under its own weight. The
lock can be released not only by the switch but also via zoom operation,
allowing for flexible handling of even impromptu shooting.

Designed to minimize flare and ghosting

Flare and ghosting, which reduce image quality, are addressed under all
conditions of incident light, based on the most advanced simulation
technology. High backlight resistance enables clear and sharp images under
any lighting conditions.
