Sigma 70-300mm F4-5.6 APO DG Macro Tele Zoom Lens                    

Telephoto zoom lenses with tele-macro function and optimized for digital SLR cameras

The performance telephoto zoom lens is capable of shooting with a maximum magnification of 1:2 at the focal length of 300 mm. It's the ideal lens for portraits, sports photography, nature photography, and other types of photography that frequently use the telephoto range.

SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass
This lens has two SLD glass elements in the front lens group and one in the rear lens group, the lens has excellent correction of chromatic aberration through the entire zoom range. This new DG lens is capable of macro photography with a 1:2 maximum magnification at the focal length of 300 mm. The new multi layer lens coating reduces flare and ghost, which is a common problem with digital cameras and also creates an optimum color balance

Macro shooting with maximum magnification 1:2
High optical performance is demonstrated throughout the entire zoom range. It also has a switch that converts the lens to macro photography at focal lengths between 200mm and 300mm with a minimum focusing distance of 95cm (37.4 inches). In normal mode the minimum focusing distance is 150cm (59.1 inches) at all zoom settings. Maximum magnification between 200mm and 300mm is 1:2.9 to 1:2.

Ce télézoom présente un rapport performance/prix remarquable pour équiper les reflex numériques. Il permet la macrophotographie avec un rapport de reproduction de 1:2 à la focale 300 mm. Un curseur dédié autorise le changement de focale entre 200mm et 300 mm en position macro. La distance minimale de mise au point (hors macro) est de 1,5 m sur l’ensemble des focales. L’utilisation de verre spécial à faible dispersion (SLD) corrige l’aberration chromatique, y compris dans ses fluctuations liées aux changements de focales.
