Sigma 120-300mm F2.8 EX DG OS APO HSM AF Lens For Nikon Cameras

Sigma 120-300mm F2.8 EX DG OS APO HSM AF Lens for Nikon Cameras

The Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 EX DG HSM Lens is unique in its capabilities. Though useful for many other photography needs, the flexibility offered by a long focal length f/2.8 zoom lens for shooting sports is very attractive. The f/2.8 aperture is wide enough to shoot in low light - even indoors if the lighting is decent and ISO values are set high. The 120-300mm focal range covers most sports needs for 1.6x and 1.3x FOVCF body users. With the 120-300mm zoom, track a player in horizontal or vertical orientation (as with a prime lens) AND zoom in/out as desired to get the proper framing without a resolution/image quality reducing cropping step during post-processing.

Image quality from the Sigma 120-300mm f/2.8 EX DG HSM Lens is decent. It has decent sharpness wide open and gets really nice stopped down a stop or so. This large aperture zoom lens features Sigma’s OS (Optical Stabilizer) function and weather-resistant design throughout for use in harsh conditions.

One SLD and Two FLD glass elements are used for maximum correction of chromatic aberrations. The super multi-layer lens coating reduces flare and ghosting, and the lens design integrates an inner focusing and inner zooming system to ensure sharp images throughout the entire zoom range. Improved optical performance provides outstanding correction of sagittal coma flare, and ensures ultra-high resolution, comparable to a fixed focal length lens.

The OS function offers the use of shutter speeds approximately 4 stops slower than would otherwise be possible. This system enables hand held tele-photography. Incorporation of HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures quiet and high speed AF, while allowing full-time manual focus override. The rounded 9 blade diaphragm creates an attractive blur to the out of focus areas of the image. The addition of the optional APO TELE CONVERTER produces an ultra telephoto zoom lens with AF.
