As part of the esteemed Art series of lenses, a sophisticated optical design is used that incorporates three SLD elements and four aspherical elements to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations, as well as color fringing, distortions, and other anomalies for greater clarity and sharpness. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been applied to suppress lens flare and ghosting for accurate color fidelity and high contrast, and a protective coating has been applied to the front element, too, to benefit working in harsh climates. Additionally, extending its versatility, a constant f\/2.8 maximum aperture affords consistent performance throughout the zoom range as well as greater control over depth of field.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nComplementing the imaging capabilities, the lens sports a Hyper Sonic Motor to produce quick, smooth, and quiet autofocus performance with full-time manual focus override. An Optical Stabilizer also benefits handheld shooting by minimizing the appearance of camera shake for sharper imagery. The physical design utilizes Thermally Stable Composite material for durability in a wide range of environments, and a brass bayonet mount also offers rigidity and mounting precision.\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nAs part of the Art line within Sigma's Global Vision series, this lens is designed to achieve truly notable optical performance and is ideally suited for creative and artistic applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStandard zoom lens is designed for FX-format Nikon F-mount DSLRs, however it can also be used with DX models where it will provide a 36-105mm equivalent focal length range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConstant f\/2.8 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and also provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThree Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements and four aspherical elements are featured in the optical design and help to reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and color accuracy, as well as spherical aberrations for reduced distortion and improved sharpness throughout the zoom range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied to lens elements in order to minimize lens flare and ghosting and contribute to producing contrast-rich and color-neutral imagery, even in backlit conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFront lens element has been treated with a water- and oil-repellent coating to benefit working in harsh environmental conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNine-blade rounded diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe integrated HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) realizes quick and quiet autofocusing, which is further complemented by an optimized AF algorithm to produce smoother focusing performance. The HSM also permits full-time manual focus control simply by rotating the focus ring at any time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOptical Stabilizer system minimizes the appearance of camera shake to benefit making sharper imagery when shooting handheld.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSpecialized electromagnetic aperture mechanism provides greater exposure control stability that is especially beneficial when working with fast continuous shooting rates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe lens is constructed using a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) material, along with traditional metals, for greater precision and use in wide temperature variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe bayonet mount is constructed from brass for ensured accuracy and durability. Additionally, rubber sealing is incorporated in the mount design to render it dust- and splash-resistant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis lens is compatible with the optional Sigma USB Dock for fine-tuning different lens characteristics and updating its firmware.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sigma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48283637416151,"sku":"SG2470MMARTNIKON_sses","price":1258.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0792\/4003\/6567\/files\/138804.jpg?v=1780497935","url":"https:\/\/ssephotovideo.com\/products\/sigma-24-70mm-f-2-8-dg-os-hsm-art-lens-for-nikon-f","provider":"Ssephotovideo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
