Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM Art Lens for Canon EF

The Sigma Art series Canon EF-mount 24-70mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM Lens is a versatile zoom lens suitable for various shooting scenarios. Covering a wide-angle to portrait-length range, this lens offers flexibility for everyday photography. The lens incorporates a sophisticated optical design with three Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements and four aspherical elements, effectively reducing chromatic and spherical aberrations, color fringing, distortions, and other anomalies. The application of a Super Multi-Layer Coating minimizes lens flare and ghosting, ensuring accurate color reproduction and high contrast. Additionally, the front element is coated with a protective layer, making it resilient in harsh climates. The constant f/2.8 maximum aperture provides consistent performance throughout the zoom range and allows for greater control over depth of field.

The lens features a Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) for quick, smooth, and quiet autofocus performance, complemented by full-time manual focus override. An Optical Stabilizer minimizes the appearance of camera shake, resulting in sharper images when shooting handheld. The lens’s physical design utilizes Thermally Stable Composite material, offering durability in various environments. The brass bayonet mount provides rigidity and precise mounting.

Part of Sigma’s Art line within the Global Vision series, this lens is designed to deliver exceptional optical performance, making it ideal for creative and artistic applications. It is compatible with full-frame Canon EF-mount cameras and can also be used with APS-C models, providing a focal length range equivalent to 38.4-112mm. The lens’s construction includes four aspherical elements and three SLD elements, reducing chromatic aberrations and color fringing. The Super Multi-Layer Coating ensures contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery, even in challenging lighting conditions. The integrated HSM offers quick and quiet autofocus, while the optimized AF algorithm enhances focusing performance. The lens also features an Optical Stabilizer that minimizes camera shake for up to four stops of compensation, enabling sharper handheld shots. The nine-blade diaphragm, constructed with a durable, fluorine-coated polycarbonate and carbon feather film, ensures smooth performance during fast continuous shooting. A water- and oil-repellent coating on the front lens element allows for shooting in harsh environmental conditions. The lens’s construction, utilizing Thermally Stable Composite material and a brass bayonet mount, ensures precision and durability. Additionally, rubber sealing in the mount design makes the lens dust- and splash-resistant.

For further customization and firmware updates, this lens is compatible with the optional Sigma USB Dock, allowing fine-tuning of different lens characteristics.
