Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG

The Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG is comfortable to handle and use, with internal focusing ensuring the front element doesn’t rotate, and a zoom lock to prevent ‘zoom creep’. The Sigma 24-60mm Lens has a very compact design for a lens with this large an aperture.

By effective arrangement of Special Low Dispersion (SLD) and aspherical glass elements, the Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG has compact dimensions of 3.29" maximum diameter, and 33.2" length. The Sigma 24-60mm Lens offers a large aperture of F 2.8 over its entire range of focal lengths, which is ideal for low light situations both indoors and out.

The Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG has a large depth of field that offers the photographer greater freedom of expression.

Advanced technology for the Digital Age
By using a new technology and optical design the Sigma 24-60mm Lens satisfies the needs of digital photography. Two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements are provided for effective compensation of color aberration, which is a common problem with wide-angle lenses. Four aspherical lenses, one moulded glass type and three hybrid aspherical types, offer excellent correction for distortion as well as all types of aberration. The design concept of the Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG is especially suitable for the characteristics of Digital SLR Cameras. New coating reduces flare and ghost, which is a common problem of digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance. The Sigma 24-60mm Lens has excellent correction for "light-fall-off", which is a common problem of large aperture lenses.
The design ensures sufficient illumination of the corners of the image.

Zoom Lock Switch Mechanism
The Sigma 24-60mm F2.8 EX DG is also equipped with a zoom lock that eliminates "Zoom Creep". This remarkably compact, high performance zoom lens is ideally suited for traveling.

Minimum focusing distance of 38cm (15.0in.) is now a reality
It is capable of taking pictures with a minimum focusing distance of 38cm (15.0in) at all focal lengths. The Sigma 24-60mm Lens is very effective for close-up photography. The high performance inner focus system is particularly suitable for using circular polarizing filters and a petal-type hood as the front of the lens does not rotate.
