The type of photography that you are planning to use is an important decision factor. Here we have evaluated the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C and the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A 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. Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C is the longer of the two lenses at 121mm. The Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A with a length of 96mm, is 25mm shorter. On the other hand, the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A has a larger diameter of 76mm compared to the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C's 74mm diameter.
Below you can find a scaled side-by-side image of Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C and Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A to get a better idea of how their sizes compare in real life.
Comparison image of the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C and the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A Size and Weight The weight of a lens is equally significant as its external dimensions, particularly if you intend to handhold your camera and lens combination for extended periods. Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A weighs 520g, 15% (95g) lighter than the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C's weight of 615g.
Filter Threads
The Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C has a filter size of 67mm whereas the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A has a 72mm diameter. Larger filters are generally more expensive than the smaller ones given all the other features are equal.
Below are links to the 67mm filters that we recommend you to consider for the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C:
And these are the 72mm filters that we recommend for the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A:
Lens Mounts
Both the Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C and the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A has the same Leica L lens mount . Some of the latest released cameras that are compatible with the Leica L lenses are Leica TL2 , Leica TL and Leica T Typ 701 .

Focal Range
Sigma 16-300mm f3.5-6.7 C has a focal range of 16-300mm and
18.8X zoom ratio which has an effective (full-frame 35mm equivalent) focal range of
24-450mm when used on a APS-C / DX format camera.
On the other hand, the Sigma 24mm F1.4 DG DN A is a prime lens with fixed focal lenght of 24mm. When it is mounted on an APS-C sensor camera with 1.5x crop, it provides a 35mm (FF) equivalent of 36mm .
