This model is designed for Nikon F-mount cameras and features a fast constant aperture of f/2.8 for shallow depth-of-field and enhance low-light imaging capabilities. The lens provides good image quality through the use of three aspherical elements, one ELD element, and two SLD elements to combat aberrations and distortion. Also, a Hyper Sonic Motor provides fast and quiet autofocus and the lens is designed to do all focusing internally. Additionally, the lens has a front filter thread of 82mm and a rounded 9-blade diaphragm.

HSM indicates lenses equipped with a Hyper Sonic Motor, driven by ultrasonic waves. HSM ensures a quiet and high speed AF as well as full-time manual focus override by rotation of the focus ring.

The polygonal shape of a conventional iris diaphragm causes outo-focus light points to appear polygonal. A rounded diaphragm is designed to produce rounded outo-focus light points when opened to near maximum aperture. This creates attractive bokeh effects in many situations, such as when photographing a subject against an out-of-focus surface of water from which light is being reflected.

Reduced Flare and Ghosting Sigma’s own Super Multi-Layer Coating suppresses flare and ghosting by preventing reflections within the lens. All DG and DC 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 effective, assuring images of outstanding contrast.
