On the other hand, photographers often need to change the angle of view to properly capture the scene that presents itself. To solve this decades-long dilemma, SIGMA proudly introduces the 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM next-generation large-aperture APS-C format standard zoom lens for digital SLR cameras. Taking on the challenge of creating the world’s first* wide-aperture lens to offer an aperture of F1.8 throughout the zoom range, SIGMA has succeeded in creating a zoom lens that offers the same high optical performance of a fixed focal length lens. These outstanding performance characteristics are especially apparent in an APS-C format camera, since it has a slightly greater depth of focus than a full-frame camera. This is a revolutionary lens that overturns preconceptions while expanding the range of photographic expression.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eThis lens features the latest SIGMA technologies to offer F1.8 throughout the zoom range and ultimate performance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nExemplifying SIGMA’s design know-how and advanced production technologies, this innovative lens offers the highest level of craftsmanship.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eTo develop a large aperture zoom lens with a maximum aperture of F1.8, it was necessary to solve a variety of technical challenges. As the f-number decreases, so does the depth of focus, making it extremely difficult to minimize spherical aberration, axial chromatic aberration, astigmatism and field curvature. To minimize astigmatism across the zoom range, SIGMA leveraged its extensive experience in reducing optical aberrations and designing advanced structural elements. SIGMA gained this know-how when it developed such super wide angle zoom lenses as the SIGMA12-24mm F4.5-5.6 II DG HSM and SIGMA 8-16mm F4.5-5.6 DC HSM. Ongoing technological innovation at SIGMA’s Aizu Factory has also contributed to further enhancements in lens production. Advanced production technologies have made possible a large-diameter molded glass aspheric lens, which teams up with SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements to optimize power distribution and minimize axial chromatic and spherical aberration and field curvature. Thanks to its hard-earned knowledge of lens design and advanced lens manufacturing techniques, SIGMA has succeeded in creating a lens that offers F1.8 throughout the zoom range, as well as exceptional image quality at wide open aperture.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eVignetting\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe x-axis represents image height (distance from center of image in mm), and the y-axis represents the relative illumination at the edge of the image (with illumination at the center of the image defined as 100%).

The downside, however, is that F2.8 has been the limit of zoom lens brightness, forcing photographers to select fixed focal length lenses for brighter f-numbers. Although fixed focal lenses have been superior to zoom lenses in terms of f-number brightness and overall performance, they offer only a fixed angle of view, requiring photographers to carry several with them and change lenses as necessary. The 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM next-generation large-aperture standard zoom lens is the world’s first* to deliver F1.8 brightness throughout the zoom range. Its bright viewfinder makes it easy to confirm focus and compose perfect shots. As compared to a F2.8 lens in the same photographic conditions, it allows the photographer to use a shutter speed that is one stop faster, reducing the influence of camera shake. In addition, the shallower depth of field makes possible a beautiful bokeh effect in the background, expanding photographic creativity.

Chromatic aberration is among the most important, and minimizing it is essential. There are two types of chromatic aberration: transverse, which can be corrected for with digital processing; and axial, which is difficult to minimize after a shot is taken. In the 35mm F1.4 DG HSM, FLD (“F” Low Dispersion) glass, which is equivalent to fluorite in its characteristics, and SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass help optimize the power distribution of the lens. This optimization minimizes axial chromatic aberration by causing the different wavelengths of light to strike the same focus position while also minimizing transverse chromatic aberration. In addition, aspheric lenses help minimize astigmatism and field curvature. Thanks to these features, resolution is extremely high from the center to the edges of the photograph.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eLens construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003ePutting a large-aperture aspheric lens first in the series of lenses makes possible a slim barrel.

Also, the optional SIGMA USB DOCK allows the user to set the lens to conventional full-time manual focus override.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDiaphragm Unit Designed for Smooth Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe diameter of the diaphragm is the second-largest in the SIGMA lens lineup after that of the SIGMA 200-500mm F2.8 \/400-1000mm F5.6 EX DG, necessitating smoother and quicker operation than ever before. To achieve this goal, the diaphragm blades feature Carbon Feather film, and the diaphragm unit features a new polycarbonate made with fluorine. Thanks to these innovations, diaphragm operation is exceptionally smooth even during continuous shooting, while the new polycarbonate is exceptionally durable and wear-resistant.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned to Minimize Flare and Ghosting\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eFrom the start of the design process, SIGMA measured flare and ghosting to establish an optical design that is resistant to strong incidental light sources such as backlight. At the prototyping stage, SIGMA used not only simulations but actual photographic experiments to assess flare and ghosting under multiple criteria, identify the causes of these issues under a wide range of situations, and take measures to mitigate them. In addition, SIGMA’s Super Multi-Layer Coating helps further reduce flare and ghosting and provide sharp, high-contrast images even in backlit conditions.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutstanding Zoom Lens Maneuverability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\nRealizing the style of operation the same with the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eInner Focus and Inner Zoom\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eSince its release, the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art has been widely used for videography. Understanding that the SIGMA 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art and new SIGMA 50-100mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art will often be used together, SIGMA has made the style of operation the same for both lenses, including the feel of focusing and zooming. Thanks to SIGMA’s inner focus and inner zoom technologies, adjusting the focus and zoom rings does not change the length of the lens, and turning the zoom ring is not prone to cause focus shift.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eTripod Socket Designed for Stable, Comfortable Operation\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eThe tripod socket is compact, making operation more stable and comfortable during handheld photography.

This fact causes different colors of light to focus at slightly different points. The result is chromatic aberration, the color fringing that is particularly noticeable in telephoto lenses. Most chromatic aberration can be removed by combining a high-refractivity convex lens element with a low-refractivity concave element. Yet residual chromatic aberration known as “secondary spectrum” may still remain. To minimize this secondary spectrum, which can be a serious issue with conventional lenses, SIGMA lenses feature up to three types of exclusive low-dispersion glass offering superior performance: ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion), SLD (Special Low Dispersion) and FLD (“F” Low Dispersion). In particular, FLD glass offers ultra-low dispersion in combination with high transmittance and the anomalous dispersion characteristics of fluorite. Meticulous deployment of these types of exclusive low-dispersion glass and optimization of power distribution gives SIGMA lenses superlative image rendition undiminished by residual chromatic aberration.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Design Concept\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cdiv\u003eIn our new product lines, the lens caps and AF\/MF switches are newly designed to improve usability.
