12mm F1.4 DC | Contemporary overview

The Sigma 12mm F1.4 DC | Contemporary is a 12mm f/1.4 prime for APS-C cameras on Sony E-mount, Fujifilm X and Canon RF, announced by Sigma in August 2025. 45 cameras we track take it without an adapter.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits landscapes and interiors, low light, and travel. It is a weaker pick for close-ups.

New, it sells for S$798 in Singapore (TK Foto).

Worth comparing it with the Viltrox AF 13mm F1.4, Sony E 11mm F1.8 and Zeiss Touit 2.8/12.
