Sigma AF 18-50mm f/2.8 DC EX HSM Macro Lens for Nikon

This lens is specially designed to suit the characteristics of digital SLR cameras and provides a high level of optical performance. It has a large aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range, offers superior peripheral brightness as well as a compact and lightweight construction. A maximum magnification of 1:3, making it ideal for close-up photography.

A minimum focusing distance of 20cm (7.9"), a maximum magnification of 1:3

This large aperture standard zoom lens, with close-up ability, is ideal for portrait and snap shots.

Large aperture of F2.8 throughout the entire zoom range

Large aperture enables easy confirmation of focusing from bright viewfinder. This lens is perfectly suited for low light conditions indoors or at dusk.

Excellent optical design

Special Low Dispersion (SLD) and Extraordinary Low Dispersion (ELD) glass elements provide excellent correction of color aberrations. This lens produces an exceptional level of optical performance.

Compact and lightweight lens

Its design incorporates both glass-mold and hybrid aspherical lens technology which offers a compact and lightweight construction.

Reduced Ghosting and Flare

The super multi-layer lens coating reduces flare and ghost. High image quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range.

Inner Focus System

An inner focusing system eliminates front lens rotation, making the lens particularly suitable for using the petal-type lens hood (supplied) plus circular polarizing filters.

HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) for Nikon Mounts Only

The Incorporation of HSM is capable of autofocusing with all Nikon DSLR cameras.

A little about Wide Angle Lenses?

Wide angle lenses are ideal for capturing large subject areas whether it is landscapes, nature, outdoor scenes, or large groups. Any lens with a focal length much smaller than 50mm is considered a wide angle lens. Its design also allows for larger views in tight spaces. That makes it great for not cutting off important subject matter when increasing the distance between yourself and the subject is impossible.

Another benefit of wide angle lenses is that they are great for accentuating the foreground keeping it super sharp. At the same time, wide angle lenses make the background seem much further away. A prominent foreground set against a receding background often results in a very pleasing effect. Compared to a standard lens, wide angles have a better depth of field and clarity. 24mm and 28mm are the most common focal lengths.
