A premium wide-angle zoom from Sigma

For capturing Landscapes, cramped interiors and other areas that require a wider field of view, is this full frame compatible Sigma 12-24mm f4 DG HSM Art lens. A new member of the popular Art series, this lens provides the same level of high-end performance and build quality as previous offerings. This lens is sure to help cement Sigma as a serious contender for the major brands, as opposed to just another budget third party option.

A constant f4 aperture means you can shoot at relatively faster shutter speeds throughout the zoom range, providing you with great handheld performance and the opportunity to travel light, sans tripod. The HSM autofocus drive of this lens offers snappy focus speeds with pinpoint accuracy, while Full time manual override is possible simply by grabbing the large, well-positioned focus ring. A rugged and ready lens, the Sigma 12-24mm manages to be dust and splash proof, while maintaining a compact and lightweight quality, thanks to being made from a thermally stable composite.
