The Sigma Corporation is pleased to present the APO 70-200mm F2.8 II Ex DG MACRO HSM. This large aperture zoom lens has improved optical performance and retains close-up ability with a minimum focusing distance of 39.4" / 100cm, and maximum magnification ration of 1:3.5.
This lens is suitable for taking all type of subjects such as portraits, landscape, and close-up pictures. Two SLD "Special Low Dispersion" and three ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion) glass elements provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations.
High image quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range. The super multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting. This lens incorporates HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor), which ensures a quiet and high-speed AF as well as full-time manual focusing capability.
The lens design incorporates an inner focusing and inner zooming systems. The overall length of the lens does not change during focusing and zooming, ensuring convenient handling. A removable tripod collar (TS-21) is included as a standard component.
When this lens is used with the optional 1.4x Ex DG APO or 2x Ex DG APO Tele Converters, it becomes a 98-280mm F4 AF telephoto zoom lens or a 140-400mm F5.6 AF telephoto zoom lens respectively.
