Description
The Sigma 50-100mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art Lens EF Mount pairs a useful range of telephoto focal lengths with an especially fast design. The bright f/1.8 constant maximum aperture offers consistent low-light performance throughout the zoom range and also affords greater control over focus placement for shallow depth of field and selective focus applications. The optical design incorporates a series of low dispersion and high-refractive index elements, which help to achieve high clarity and sharpness by suppressing various aberrations, colour fringing, and distortion.
A Super Multi-Layer Coating has been applied, too, which controls lens flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour accuracy. Balancing the optical merits, this 50-100mm also sports an advanced Hyper Sonic Motor, along with an internal focusing and zoom design, to promote fast, quiet, and precise autofocus performance. Additionally, a tripod collar is integrated into the lens’s design for greater stability when working atop a tripod or monopod.
