Sigma released the new SIGMA 70mm F2.8 DG MACRO | Art lens which includes the following features:
The focus-by-wire system eliminates the direct mechanical connection between the focus ring and the focus drive system. Controlled by SIGMA’s latest algorithm, a newly developed coreless DC motor adjusts focus with optimal speed and low noise. Full-time manual focus is available even during autofocus, allowing the photographer to make minute focus adjustments simply by turning the focus ring. In addition, the focus ring’s large angle of rotation helps the photographer achieve the extremely precise focusing required for effective macro photography.
- Focus-by-wire system for comfortable and precise focusing
- Compatible with full-frame Sony E-mount cameras
- Compatible with Canon Lens Aberration Correction
