Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM Art Lens for Nikon F: Ultra-Wide Excellence in Low Light

Overview:

The Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM Art Lens for Nikon F stands out as a top-tier ultra-wide-angle zoom lens, tailor-made for Nikon FX-format DSLR cameras. This lens is a powerhouse in low-light photography and depth-of-field control, thanks to its constant f/2.8 maximum aperture. Its advanced optical construction, featuring three FLD elements, three SLD elements, and three aspherical elements, significantly reduces chromatic and spherical aberrations. This ensures that photographers can capture sharp, clear, and color-accurate images across the entire zoom range. Additionally, its dust and splash-resistant build, coupled with a water and oil repellent coating, makes it a robust companion for outdoor shoots. The lens also boasts a high-speed, high-accuracy autofocus system and a smooth, rounded 9-blade diaphragm, enhancing its versatility and appeal to professional photographers and advanced amateurs seeking exceptional image quality and performance.

More Details:

• Fast Constant f/2.8 Aperture: Ideal for low-light conditions and achieving shallow depth-of-field.
• Ultra-Wide-Angle Zoom Range: Expands your creative possibilities in landscape and architectural photography.
• Advanced Optical Design: Minimizes chromatic and spherical aberrations for sharp, clear images.
• Dust and Splash Resistant: Ensures durability and reliability in challenging environments.
• Water and Oil Repellent Coating: Keeps the lens safe from elements, maintaining image clarity.
• High-Speed, High-Accuracy Autofocus: Delivers quick and precise focusing, crucial for capturing dynamic scenes.
• Rounded 9-Blade Diaphragm: Produces aesthetically pleasing bokeh, enhancing the visual appeal of your photos.

• Exclusive low-dispersion glass - Most chromatic aberration can be removed by combining a high-refractivity convex lens element with a low-refractivity concave element. Yet residual chromatic aberration known as “secondary spectrum” may still remain. To minimize this secondary spectrum, which can be a serious issue with conventional lenses, SIGMA lenses feature up to three types of exclusive low-dispersion glass offering superior performance: ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion), SLD (Special Low Dispersion) and FLD (“F” Low Dispersion). In particular, FLD glass offers ultra-low dispersion in combination with high transmittance and the anomalous dispersion characteristics of fluorite.
• Fast AF with full-time manual focus - Its function allows the lens to be switched to manual focus simply by rotating the focus ring.
• Designed to minimize flare and ghosting - From an early stage in the lens design process, flare and ghosting have been measured to establish an optical design resistant to strong incident light sources such as backlighting. SIGMA’s Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting to help photographers produce sharp and high-contrast images even in backlit conditions.
• High-precision, rugged brass bayonet mount - The brass mount combines high precision with rugged construction. Its treated surfaces and enhanced strength contribute to the exceptional durability of the lens.
• Rounded diaphragm - The 9-blade rounded diaphragm creates an attractive blur in the out-of-focus areas of the image.
