the entire zoom range. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and
ghosting and provides high contrast images throughout the focal range.
This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 150cm (59.1”) throughout
the entire zoom range and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.9, making
it ideal for close-up photography.
SIGMA’s
own unique OS technology
This lens is equipped with Sigma’s own unique OS (Optical Stabiliser)
function. This system offers the use of shutter speeds approximately 4
stops slower than would otherwise be possible. It makes telephoto shooting
easy for many types of photography such as sport and nature. For Sony
and Pentax mount, the built-in OS function of this lens can be used even
if the camera body is equipped with an anti-shake function. As compensation
for camera shake is visible in the view finder, the photographer can easily
check for accurate focus and ensure there is no subject movement.
*For Pentax and Sony mount, it is not possible to use AF
and OS when attaching to a film SLR, Pentax ist* series and K100D DSLR
cameras.
