Details
Combining the Super-Tele-Zoom SIGMA 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary lens with the SIGMA TC-1401 tele-converter, you get an MF 210-840mm F7-9 super-tele-Zoom lens. For cameras with APS-C format sensor, the focal length is 315-1260mm.
The lightweight and compact design of the Contemporary line lens makes it convenient to carry around and enables hands-free photography for extended periods of time.
The lens is equipped with the latest firmware. This improves the lens' AF algorithm, further increasing the speed of the HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) drive .It increases the autofocus speed by about 20% in normal operation, up to a maximum of 50% when "speed priority" has been set using SIGMA Optimization Pro software.
The concept of the 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Contemporary: a lightweight and compact design for everyday use.
Equipped with one FLD glass element and three SLD glass elements, the lens' power distribution is optimized and lateral chromatic aberrations are minimized. This results in the high optical performance. For a super telephoto Zoom lens, image quality in the telephoto range is what mainly counts, and this lens offers excellent performance. It also compensates for distortion very well over the entire focal length range.
To make this Super-Tele-Zoom lens even more portable for hands-free outdoor shooting, it is equipped with dust and splash protection and a detachable tripod clamp.
First-class image quality
FLD glass is the best low-dispersion, ultra-high transmission glass currently available. This optical glass has imaging performance on par with fluoride glass, with a low refractive index and - compared to common glasses - low dispersion. It also benefits from high anomalous dispersion. These characteristics provide excellent correction of residual chromatic aberration (secondary spectrum), which cannot be corrected by ordinary glass, and guarantee very sharp and high-contrast images.
Lightweight and compact design for convenient portability
Compared to the 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG OS HSM Sports, it is more compact and lighter, making it easier to handle, thus enabling hands-free photography even for a longer period of time.
The tripod clamp is removable, so the lens can be used and transported without it. The tripod clamp is made of magnesium and provides a stable hold. A rubber cover can be attached instead of the tripod clamp, making the lens even lighter and more comfortable for freehand photography.
This lens is the optimal choice for photographers who want super telephoto functionality while being light on their feet.
- Zoom-Lock Switch
- Water and oil repellent coating
- Dust and splash resistant mount
- Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM)
Tele-Converter TC-1401
The new tele-converters were developed exclusively for the new lens product lines. Attached between the telephoto lens and a camera, a Tele-Converter TC-1401 increases the focal length by 1.4 times.
The tele-converter incorporates SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements that provide excellent image error correction.
The converter is dustproof and splashproof, making it a durable design for professional use. It is compact and lightweight and provides an easy way to extend the focal length range.
