Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG DN OS Sport Lens for E Mount

Sport | 70-200mm f/2.8 DG DN OS Lens

The 70-200mm F2.8, Worthy of the Flagship
Packed with All the Technology SIGMA Has to Offer

The large F2.8 aperture provides stable and high descriptive performance at all zoom and focus ranges. The high-speed AF with a dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) based on a floating focus structure, and the Optical Stabilizer function with the OS2 algorithm with up to 7.5 stops of correction effect, ensure that users can take the right shot when there is no room for error. The highly mobile lens with high durability, rigidity, and texture is equipped with a wealth of functions to assist comfortable shooting, including an inner zoom mechanism for easy handling, as well as an aperture ring and switches with various customization functions. The flagship SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports, combined with the best of SIGMA’s latest technologies to meet the high-level demands of professionals, has finally arrived.

High-Speed AF and Optical Stabilizer Function
That Maximize Superior Optical Performance 

The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports, developed with professional use in mind, offers not only high optical performance, but also high-speed AF 
with a dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) and an optical stabilizer function with up to 7.5 stops. 

• High descriptive performance at all zoom and focus ranges

  Three aspherical lenses are used for superior optical performance and streamlined lens construction. The aspherical lenses are of exceptionally high precision being produced in SIGMA’s Aizu factory. The incorporated floating focus improves short-range performance, ensuring a stable, high-level image quality throughout the entire range.
   

• High-speed AF with a dual HLA

  The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports with floating focus has a structure in which the two focus groups move in opposite directions, thereby reducing the amount of focus lens movement by about half. In addition, the use of an HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor in each of the two focus groups enables high-speed autofocusing. In addition to being fast and accurate, the lens also employs a control program that is designed to be quiet, so users can shoot movies comfortably without worrying about noise.
   

• OS2 algorithm in optical stabilizer function

  The latest OS2 optical stabilization algorithm provides an extremely high image stabilization effect of 7.5 stops at the wide end and 5.5 stops at the telephoto end. The lens is equipped with two OS modes: Mode 1 is suitable for general shooting, and Mode 2 is ideal for panning shots of motorsports and other sports. In Mode 2, SIGMA’s Intelligent OS, an algorithm enables effective image stabilization even when the camera is moved vertically or diagonally, irrespective of the horizontal and vertical orientation, ensuring that the subject’s movement can be captured without losing the panning shot effect. The lens has been designed to suppress focus breathing. The change in angle of view due to focus shift is minimized, creating a natural-looking focus shift when recording video. Flare and ghosting, are addressed under all conditions of incident light based on the most advanced simulation technology. High backlight resistance enables clear and sharp images under any lighting conditions.

Top-Level Build Quality
Condensed Into a Highly Mobile Lens 

SIGMA is committed to excellent build quality in all its lenses. The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports offers not only high weather resistance performance for shooting in harsh environments, but also improved quality and durability through the use of cutting-edge materials. The latest optical and mechanical design streamlines the lens configuration and internal structure, resulting in a significantly smaller and lighter body than the previous SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sports model. The body, including the hood, features a “multi-material structure” that optimally arranges materials such as magnesium, CFRP, and TSC.

The zoom mechanism employs an inner zoom. Since the total length of the lens does not change with zoom operation, it is easy to handle when shooting hand-held, highly stable when installed on a gimbal, and resistant to dust and water droplets. The mount connection, manual focus ring, zoom ring, switches, switch panel and exterior connection are all dust and splash resistant to prevent dust and dirt from entering the lens. The front element of the lens features a water and oil repellent coating to facilitate maintenance when water droplets or dust adhere to the lens. The structure is designed to be dust and splash resistant, but not waterproof. Be careful not to bring the lens in contact with a large amount of water. Water inside the lens may cause major damage and even render the lens unrepairable.

A Wealth of Functions
To Assist Professional Photographers Enabling a More Comfortable and Versatile Shooting Experience

This is the first SIGMA zoom lens for still photography to be equipped with an aperture ring. It is also equipped with an aperture ring click switch and ring lock switch, allowing for aperture operation suited to the shooting application. The lens body incorporates a newly designed Arca-Swiss compatible magnesium alloy tripod socket. Equipped with a Focus Limiter switch, the lens enables users to limit the focus driving range during AF when necessary, allowing quick and precise focusing. The lens also features three AFL buttons ready to be assigned to preferred functions using the camera. For the L-Mount version, the SIGMA USB DOCK UD-11 can be used to set OS operation or focus limiter range for the Custom Mode switch.
