The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN C and the Canon RF 10-20mm F4 L IS STM for their suitability to various photography scenarios:
Size and Weight Comparison The size of a lens is a crucial factor to consider when comparing two lenses. Canon RF 10-20mm F4 L IS STM is the longer of the two lenses at 112mm. The Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN C with a length of 64mm, is 48mm shorter. Besides being longer, the Canon RF 10-20mm F4 L IS STM also has a larger diameter of 84mm compared to the Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN C's 72mm diameter.
Below you can find a scaled side-by-side image of Sigma 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN C and Canon RF 10-20mm F4 L IS STM to get a better idea of how their sizes compare in real life.
