Intelligent OS with an Updated Algorithm

The user can enjoy a high level of precision thanks to the Acceleration Sensor that is incorporated into the Optical Stabiliser Function (OS). There are two OS modes available. These include Mode 1 and Mode 2. The first one is for general photography and the latter for motorsports along with other photographic applications that requires panning. The combination of the Intelligent OS and the Accelerated Sensor is particularly helpful for Mode 2 as it provides successful stabilisation while the camera moves horizontally, vertically, or diagonally regardless of the position of the lens. This helps with panning and subject tracking.

Optical Glass Elements

Thanks to incorporating optical glass elements this lens minimises chromatic aberration providing users with best-in-class image quality. One "F" Low Dispersion (FLD) glass elements (providing equal performance to fluorite) along with three Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements have been included in the lens design to achieve this.

1.4x Tele Converter

Equipped with 1 SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass element for maximum image quality, the new Sigma Global Vision tele converters utilize a splash and dustproof construction for long-lasting durability. Created exclusively for the Global Vision lenses, these tele converters ensure the utmost in compatibility, even for large diameter lenses. With effective AF at F8 and 1.4x the reach, get the most out of your Sigma lens.
