Sigma has announced a five new lenses at its Photokina press conference, covering everything from wide-angle to hyper-telephoto.
First up is the new Sigma 28mm f/1.4 DG HSM | Art wide-angle prime lens, which Sigma says features an optical design that will minimize distortion, control sagittal flare and correct chromatic aberration. Dust and splash-proof, the lens also features a water- and oil-repellent coating on the front lens element. There's also a HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) with an improved algorithm for faster focusing, while it will be available in Nikon F, Canon EF and Sony E camera mounts (as well as Sigma's own mount).
Following this is the Sigma 40mm f/1.4 DG HSM | Art lens. Designed for exceptional sharpness at maximum aperture, this lens is promised to excel when shooting in limited light. Sigma states that the lens delivers less than 1% distortion and near non-existent sagittal flare, while the lens should deliver optical results could enough for 8K-compatible resolution as well as beautiful bokeh. Like the 28mm, the 40mm f/1.4 will be It is available for Nikon F, Canon EF and Sony E mount camera systems (not forgetting Sigma's own mount again.
Sigma has also launched the 56mm f/1.4 DC DN | Contemporary portrait-orientated prime lens for Sony APS-C E-mount and Micro Four Thirds shooters, promises to deliver outstanding image quality and beautiful bokeh.
Perhaps the most anticipated lenses from Sigma is the new 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sports telephoto zoom lens.
The new flagship large-aperture telephoto zoom lens features a magnesium body that's dust- and splash-proof, while also sporting a water- and oil-repellent coating on the front element. It also incorporates Sigma's Intelligent OS with an acceleration sensor and the latest algorithm capable of panning in all directions. The newest f/2.8 large-aperture zoom lens from Sigma comes in Canon EF, Nikon F and Sigma mounts.
Sigma 60-600mm F4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports
The Sigma 60-600mm F4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports is the world’s first 10x optical zoom telephoto lens with a tele end of 600mm. Incorporating 25 elements in 19 groups, excellent and consistent image quality can be achieved throughout the entire zoom range. This lens’ intelligent OS featuring the latest algorithm delivers an image stabilization effect of 4 stops. Its optical design ensures maximum correction of magnification chromatic aberration encountered in hyper-telephoto shooting. This offers both high resolution and consistent edge-to-edge performance throughout the entire zoom range. In addition, when shooting at the focal length of 200mm, the Sigma 60-600mm F4.5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports can also be used for telephoto macro photography, with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.3, thanks to its high rendering performance. Its multi-material build, which incorporates magnesium among other components, ensures durability and enhances portability, allowing for comfortable handling of the 10x zoom lens. The zooming mechanism has been engineered to make both smooth rotation and straight zoom possible. Versatile and robust, the new Sigma hyper-telephoto zoom lens is available in Sigma, Canon and Nikon mounts starting in late October 2018 for $1999 USD.
