All-in-one zoom for APS-C E-mount
The Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary lens covers a 16-300mm focal range on Sony E-mount APS-C cameras, delivering a 24-450mm equivalent view. An 18.8x zoom ratio lets you move from wide-angle landscapes to distant wildlife without changing lenses. Optical Stabilisation with the OS2 algorithm provides up to 6 stops of correction at the wide end and 4.5 stops at the telephoto end. A High-Speed Linear Actuator drives fast, quiet autofocus for stills and video.
Travel shooters wanting one lens.
This lens suits photographers who value a single, weather-sealed optic for everyday carry, hiking or holidays where swapping gear is impractical. The bundled backpack, 12-inch tripod, filter kit, cleaning accessories and straps support that grab-and-go workflow. Buyers using full-frame Sony bodies cannot exploit the image circle, and photographers who need wider maximum apertures for shallow depth of field or faster shutter speeds in dim interiors should look at something else.
Steady handheld performance across the range
Optical Stabilisation remains effective during extended handheld sessions, compensating for fatigue-induced shake at 300mm where the aperture reaches f/6.7. The OS2 algorithm maintains correction consistency whether panning video or waiting for a wildlife subject, and the HLA motor sustains focus tracking without hunting bursts. Flare and ghosting suppression hold up in backlit conditions, preserving contrast throughout long shooting days.

Questions about this item
Does this lens require a Sony E-mount APS-C camera body to work?
Yes, the Sigma 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 DC OS Contemporary Lens is designed for Sony E-mount APS-C mirrorless cameras and provides a 24-450mm equivalent focal range on that format.
Can I use this lens on a full-frame Sony E-mount camera?
On a full-frame Sony E-mount body the lens will operate in APS-C crop mode, giving the same 24-450mm equivalent field of view but using only the central portion of the sensor.
How do I verify the Optical Stabilization is active after mounting the lens?
Half-press the shutter button; the viewfinder or LCD image should steady noticeably, and the OS switch on the barrel must be set to position 1 or 2 for the up-to-6-stop (wide) or 4.5-stop (tele) correction to engage.
