DG DN OS Sports

SIGMA's original OS (Optical Stabilizer) function uses sensors inside the lens to detect any motion, then moves specific lens elements in order to effectively minimize blur caused by such movement. Owing to the stabilized image in the viewfinder, it is possible to fine-tune composition and ensure accurate focusing.

OS2 is the newly developed optical stabilizer algorithm. Compared to the previous algorithm used by SIGMA lenses, OS2 improves the effect of optical stabilization significantly.

To increase stability, this lens configuration uses movable internal lens elements that adjust focus without changing the length of the lens barrel.

Matching the optical characteristics of the lens, this function performs in-camera corrections of peripheral illumination, chromatic aberrations, distortion, and more, to further enhance image quality.

*Function available on supported cameras only. Available corrections or auto correction functionality may vary depending on the camera model.
*On cameras where lens aberration correction is controlled with 'ON' or 'OFF' in the camera menu, please set all aberration correction functions to 'ON'(AUTO).

HLA is SIGMA's proprietary linear motor. It drives the focus lens directly without going through gears or other mechanical parts, resulting in quiet, high-precision autofocusing.

SIGMA's own Super Multi-Layer Coating suppresses flare and ghosting by preventing reflections with in the lens. All lenses in the current SIGMA range feature this original technology. In digital cameras, flare and ghosting may also be caused by reflections between the image sensor and lens surfaces. Here too, SIGMA's Super Multi-Layer Coating is highly ef fective, assuring images of outstanding contrast.

Incorporates a water and oil-repellent coating that allows water to be wiped away easily and prevents oil and fat from sticking to the surface, even in challenging shooting conditions. At the same time, the maintenance of the lens surface becomes easier.

Aperture ring, designed to help users work intuitively

Mounted with a de-click function for removing clicks by the aperture ring click switch, enabling seamless operations that are especially useful such as during video shooting.

A ring lock system to prevent from unintended movement of the aperture ring during shooting.

the AFL button can be assigned with various functions widens the range of operations available on the lens.

Using this swich, it is possible to switch the focus mode between AF and MF.

Offers customization for the driving range of auto focus. It makes it possible to limit the drive range from a specific distance to a long distance or a short distance.

A focus movement method of interchangeable lenses for mirrorless cameras (DN lens) in relation to the rotational angle of the focus ring during manual focusing.
With "non-linear focus," the amount of focal point movement varies depending on the focus ring rotational speed.
With linear focus, if the focus ring rotational angle is the same, the amount of focal point movement remains the same regardless of the focus ring rotational speed.

This lens features a highly effective dust and splash resistant structure with special sealing at the mount connection, manual focus ring, zoom ring, and cover connection.

*Although this construction allows the lens to be used in light rain, it is not the same as being waterproof, so please prevent large amounts of water from splashing on the lens. It is often impractical to repair the internal mechanism, lens elements and electric components if they are damaged by water.
