The large F2.8 aperture provides stable and high performance throughout the focal length range and at all focusing distances. High-speed autofocus with dual HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) based on a floating focus structure, and optical stabilization function with OS2 algorithm allowing up to 7.5 correction values *, ensure users take the ideal photo when there is no room for error. The highly versatile lens, of great strength, resistance and handling, is equipped with a multitude of functions to facilitate shooting, including an internal zoom mechanism for easy handling, an aperture ring and switches with various customization functions. The flagship SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS lens | Sports, combined with the best of the latest SIGMA technologies to meet the high-level demands of professionals, has finally arrived.

High-speed autofocus and optical stabilizer that maximize superior optical performance
The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports, developed for professional use, not only offers high optical performance, but also fast autofocus with double HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) and optical stabilization function up to 7.5 stops. Sports line lenses offer high optical performance and all functions are based on cutting-edge technology.

High performance throughout the focal length range and at all focusing distances
This latest optical design, which uses high-quality glass materials, including 6 FLD elements and 2 SLD elements made of special low dispersion glass, provides high resolving power across the entire focal length range. Three aspherical elements are used, as they are now essential to achieve superior optical performance and optimized lens construction. The exceptional precision of the aspherical lenses, which benefit from the technical capabilities of SIGMA's unique production site, the Aizu factory, further improves optical performance. Built-in floating focus helps improve performance at close range, ensuring stable, high-level image quality throughout the range from minimum focusing distance to infinity.

Rapid AF with double HLA
The SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports with floating focus has a structure in which the two focusing groups move in opposite directions, thereby reducing the amount of movement of the focusing lens by approximately half. Additionally, the use of an HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor in each of the two focus groups enables high-speed autofocus. In addition to being fast and precise, the lens also uses a control system designed to be quiet, allowing users to shoot comfortably without worrying about noise.

OS2 algorithm in optical stabilization function
The latest OS2 optical stabilization algorithm provides an extremely high image stabilization effect of 7.5 stops at wide angle and 5.5 stops at telephoto*. The lens is equipped with two OS modes: Mode 1 is suitable for general shooting and Mode 2 is ideal for continuous shooting. In mode 2, SIGMA's Intelligent OS, an algorithm specially designed for panoramic shots, provides effective image stabilization even when the camera is moved vertically or diagonally, regardless of horizontal and vertical orientation . This allows you to capture the subject's movements without losing the panoramic effect.

*Based on CIPA guidelines (measured at 70mm and 200mm with Full Frame image sensor)

Designed to minimize focus breathing*
The lens was designed to eliminate focus breathing. Framing shift due to focus shift is minimized, creating natural-looking focus movement when recording video.

Designed to minimize flare and incident light
Flare and incident lights, which reduce image quality, are treated in all indirect light conditions using the most advanced simulation technology. High backlight resistance provides clear, sharp images regardless of lighting conditions.

Top-level build quality condensed into a very manageable lens
SIGMA is committed to providing excellent manufacturing quality for all its purposes. Among them, the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports, part of the Sports line, not only offers high weather resistance for shooting in harsh environments, but also increased quality and strength through the use of advanced materials in the appropriate locations, on the basis for streamlined optical and mechanical design. At the same time, a high level of mobility is also achieved, resulting in professional equipment that can be used with confidence over the long term.

High quality and durability despite its small size and lightness
The latest optical and mechanical design streamlines the configuration and internal structure of the lens, this results in a significantly smaller and lighter lens than the previous SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sports. The lens, including the lens hood, features a "multi-material structure" that optimizes the arrangement of materials such as magnesium, CFRP*1 and TSC*2. Even with increased mobility, the lens benefits from SIGMA's excellent build quality, which is characterized by high solidity, reliable resistance, as well as carefully designed control rings and switches to provide a pleasant feel.

*1 Carbon fiber reinforced plastic, a lightweight but strong material used in aircraft interiors and exteriors, among many other applications.

*2 Thermally Stable Composite, a polycarbonate with a thermal expansion rate similar to that of aluminum. Its great affinity with metal parts contributes to high manufacturing quality standards.

Using an internal zoom mechanism
The zoom mechanism relies on an internal zoom. As the overall length of the lens does not change when using the zoom, it is easy to handle when shooting handheld, very stable when mounted on a gimball and resistant to dust and splashing water.

Weather resistance, Sports line specifications
The mount connection, manual focus ring, zoom ring, control dials, sliders and exterior connection are all dust and splash resistant* to prevent dust and dirt from entering the camera. 'objective. Additionally, the lens front element has a water and oil repellent coating for easy maintenance when water drops or dust adhere to the lens.

*The structure is designed to be dust and splash resistant, but not waterproof. Be careful not to put the lens in contact with a large amount of water. Water inside the lens can cause significant damage and even render the lens beyond repair.

A multitude of functions to help professionals
In addition to an aperture ring, a magnesium tripod base and various switches, the highly versatile lens has a multitude of functions, allowing users to enjoy a wonderful shooting experience more versatile and more comfortable.

Equipped with diaphragm ring
It is the first SIGMA zoom lens for photography to be equipped with an aperture ring. It is also equipped with an aperture ring switch and an aperture ring lock switch, allowing the aperture to be adapted to each use

New interchangeable tripod mount
The lens body incorporates an Arca Swiss compatible magnesium alloy foot collar. The detachable collar base was newly designed for the SIGMA 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sports in order to obtain a compact and lightweight design.

Customizable functions
Equipped with a focus seek limiter, the lens allows users to limit the focus operating range during autofocus when necessary, enabling fast and accurate focusing.

Additionally, the lens has three AFL* buttons ready to be assigned to selected functions using the camera. The AFL buttons are easy to use, regardless of camera orientation or settings used.

For the L-Mount version, the SIGMA USB DOCK UD-11 can be used to adjust the operation of the OS stabilizer or the range of the focus limiter by the custom mode dial. Only on compatible cameras. Available functions may vary depending on the camera used.

Tele converter for L-Mount (1.4x / 2.0x)
The L-Mount version of the lens is compatible with the SIGMA TELE CONVERTER TC-1411 (1.4x) and TC-2011 (2.0x). By using a teleconverter, the focal length can be increased by 1.4 times and even 2 times, so you can shoot with autofocus at ultra-telephoto focal lengths up to 400 mm.

Sun visor included
A lightweight, highly durable and exclusive CFRP* sunshade is included. In addition to its slim design that does not hinder lens mobility, the end of the lens hood is rubberized to protect the lens from abrasion and scratches caused by face down positioning of the lens. objective.
