Sigma 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DC OS Lens
This high zoom ratio lens is exclusively designed for digital SLR cameras and capable of covering a wide range of focal lengths from wide-angle to telephoto.
It is equipped with Sigma's own unique technology OS (Optical Stabilizer) function. This function uses two sensors inside the lens to detect vertical and horizontal movement of the camera and works by moving an optical image stabilizing lens group, to effectively compensate for camera shake.
It also automatically detects movement of the camera and compensates for camera shake when shooting moving subjects such as motor sports.
SLD an Aspherical lenses
Two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements and three hybrid aspherical lenses offer the utmost correction for distortion and all types of aberrations.
Super Multi Layer Lens Coating
This lens uses a special coating which reduces flare and ghosting, a common problem with digital cameras and also creates an optimum colour balance.
Compact and Lightweight Design
This extended range super zoom lens is housed in a compact and lightweight construction of 79mm in diameter and 100mm in length, and weighing just 610g.
Minimum Focusing Distance of 45cm
This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 45cm at all focal lengths and has maximum magnification of 1:3.9
Inner Focus
The lens design incorporates an inner focusing system, which prevents the front of the lens from rotating, making it particularly suitable for using circular polarising filters and petal shaped lens hoods. The overall length of the lens does not change during focusing, ensuring convenient handling and ease of use.
Zoom Lock
A zoom lock switch eliminates ‘zoom creep’ during transportation, a convenient addition when travelling.
