Sigma releases 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG OS
Sigma has announced an image-stabilised telephoto zoom in the shape of the 70-300mm F4-5.6 DG OS. Suitable for use on both APS-C and full frame cameras, this lens incorporates Sigma's Optical Stabilisation technology allowing hand-held shooting at shutter speeds up to 4 stops slower than usual, along with a circular diaphragm for attractive rendition of out-of-focus backgrounds. The minimum focus distance is 1.5m giving a maximum magnification of 0.26x; unlike Sigma's non-stabilised 70-300mm zooms there's no extended macro focusing option. The lens will available for users of Sigma, Nikon, Canon, Pentax and Sony SLRs at a SRP of £399.
Features:
- Equipped with Sigma’s own OS (Optical Stabiliser) function
- SLD glass for excellent correction of aberrations
- Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting
- Compact construction
- For use with full frame and APS-C digital SLRs
