The Sigma 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM Art Lens is a premium ultra-wide-angle zoom lens, designed to deliver exceptional image quality across all focal lengths and shooting distances. This lens is engineered to work seamlessly with high-resolution cameras exceeding 50 megapixels, ensuring top-tier optical performance throughout the zoom range. Incorporating three FLD glass elements, three SLD glass elements, and three aspherical lens elements, including one large-diameter aspherical element, this lens offers an effective distribution of high-refractive-index glass elements. This advanced optical system drastically reduces transverse chromatic aberration and other optical distortions, resulting in high-resolution images of outstanding quality. The first element in the optical system is a large-diameter aspherical lens. By optimizing the power distribution of this and other lens elements, distortion is minimized to 1% or lower. This ensures that points of light are rendered accurately from the center to the edge of the image, providing a rich light volume across the frame. Additionally, meticulous simulations from the design stage have helped minimize flare and ghosting, further enhancing the lens's ultra-wide-angle performance.Like Sigma's Sports line lenses, the 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM Art Lens boasts a robust dust- and splash-proof structure, with special sealing at the mount connection, manual focus ring, zoom ring, and cover connection.
