Sigma is a third-party company that’s known for lenses that tend to be a bit more budget-friendly than larger names. But, that’s not exactly the case with the I series, a set of metal prime lenses that are designed as more high-end than budget. The Sigma 24mm f2 DG DN Contemporary is one of those lenses.

Many camera and lens manufacturers make wide-angle lenses and say things about them not having any distortion. But that's really not always true at all. Sure, you can fix it in post-production if anything.
Some photographers scoff at the smaller sensors used in Micro Four Thirds systems. But, with the right lens, I can almost forget that I’m shooting with a smaller sensor. The Laowa Argus 18mm f0. 95 MFT APO is one of those lenses.
Canon is slowly parading out more affordable RF lenses. The Canon RF 24mm f1. 8 Macro IS STM and RF 15-30mm f4. 5-6. 3 IS STM joined the company’s mirrorless options today, both offering stabilized wide views for under $600.
So, you’re stuck at home and you have limited options when it comes to taking photos. If you’re thinking about joining the myriad of photographers who decided to do self portraits in the meantime, you might want to pay special attention to your 24mm lens.
When it comes to wide-angle lenses, the 24mm is considered by many photographers as a classic focal length. It’s a favorite of many for its versatility, so we’re not surprised if you somehow ended up here while researching this lens.
If you're still looking for a distortion-free wide angle lens for both photo and video work with your Micro Four Thirds camera, Venus Optics comes forward with a solution. The lens manufacturer has just announced the M43 variant of the Laowa 9mm f2.
