When you're taking photos, your lens is critical to capturing the desired image. Changing your lens changes the
photos you take. By selecting and changing the lens to suit the purpose and the situation, the photographer creates
a personal camera system that serves his or her specic needs. This is the system we know as the SLR camera, and
its performance depends on lens selection. Over the decades, Sigma has contributed to the art of photography by
developing some of the world’s nest lenses. Now, with our new lens lineup, you can transform not just your photographs but yourself as a photographer.
We've grouped our new lens models into three product lines: Contemporary, Art, and Sports. Each line has been
assigned a clearly dened concept. From now on, all our products will be developed and presented in terms of how
they embody these three concepts. Since digital SLR cameras are becoming increasingly multifunctional and diverse, we want to help photographers get the most out of their DLSR cameras and enjoy photography even more.
Sigma may be a small company, but we're determined to effect some big changes. And this is just the beginning.
Contemporary, Art, Sports: three lines, perfect order
Having taken our lenses to a new level of performance, Sigma has adopted a simple product identication strategy
that makes it easy for users to identify the kind of lens for which they are looking. Building on this idea, we've reorganized all our lenses into three product lines, each characterized by its own clearly dened concept. From now on,
every new lens we develop will be assigned to one of these product lines. Now nding the right lens is easier than ever.

ESSENTIALS
You,ll find our philosophy and craftsmanship in every product
Our new lineup fully expresses our approach to lenses and photography itself. All of our lenses belong to one of
three lines—Contemporary, Art, or Sports—all of which share our development philosophy and advanced manufacturing system. High performance, high quality, and high end in every respect, these lenses give people who love
photography lasting value and consistent, exciting results. The secret is our passion for craftsmanship that we put
into every production process and every product.
QUALITY
Inspecting each and every lens with our proprietary Foveon-based
A1 MTF measuring system, we deliver premium quality
There are three requirements for outstanding lenses: ne design, precise manufacturing and inspection that ensures compliance with all specications. SIGMA lenses
are born of outstanding design concepts and excellent manufacturing technology.
But they’re not complete until they undergo our uncompromising lens performance
evaluation. We've developed our own A1 proprietary MTF (Modulation Transfer Func
tion) measuring system using 46-megapixel Foveon direct image sensors. Even previously undetectable high-frequency details are now within the scope of our quality
control inspections. We check each and every lense in our new lines before we ship it.
Thanks to our ultra-high-resolution sensors, you enjoy ultra-high-performance.

lenses, mold plastic parts, painting, mount substrates, perform assembly, and even
manufacture screws, many other parts, and molds. With this integrated system, we
produce all of our interchangeable lenses, cameras, and strobes at our Aizu facto
ry. In fact, we are now one of the very few manufacturers whose products are solely
made in Japan. We like to think our products are somehow imbued with the essence
of our homeland, blessed as it is with great natural beauty and focused, hard-working
people. We pride ourselves on the authentic quality of SIGMA products, which are
born of a marriage between highly attuned expertise and intelligent, advanced tech
nology. Our sophisticated products have satised professionals and lovers of photography all over the world, since our manufacturing is based on genuine craftsmanship,

RESPONSIBILITY
In our manufacturing activities, we aim for sustainable growth
and the highest standard of corporate social responsibility (CSR)
The history of our Aizu factory, our sole production base, is also the history of SIGMA
itself. From the moment we rst conceived the idea of setting up a factory in Aizu, we
have aimed to grow and develop as a member of the local community. We believe that
when a company sets up a business base, it has an economic and cultural respon
sibility to the local community from that time onward. The global market may be the
principal focus of our business, but our attention to responsibility begins at home.

a creative, dramatic outcome above compactness
and multifunction. Along with landscapes, portraits,
still-life, close-up and casual snaps, they're perfect
for the kind of photography that unleashes the inner
artist. Ideal for studio photography, they offer just
as much expressive scope when capturing architecture, starry skies, underwater shots and many other
scenes.
Sports
S
With their high-level optical performance and expressive power, these lenses can capture fast-moving subjects, even at distance. This high-performance line also offers a variety of functions to aid
the photographer in challenging conditions and

wild animals and other creatures, and for capture of
aircraft, trains, race cars and more. Our Sports line
lenses also offer a wide range of customization functions: exclusive software allows many settings to be
customized.
Lens categories for all major standards
For our three new lines, Sigma develops lenses optimized for 35mm full-frame, APS-C,
and mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras.
SIGMA DC LENSES
High-performance lenses for cameras with
APS-C sensors
These lenses are designed especially for cameras
with APS-C sensors. The smaller image size makes
possible a compact, lightweight format that offers
outstanding exibility and maneuverability.
Note 1: DC lenses have an image circle that covers APS-C size image sensors. Not for use on digital cameras having image sensors larger than APS-C size or on 35mm or APS lm cameras, as vignetting will occur.
Note 2: To nd the 35mm camera-equivalent focal length, multiply the DC lens focal length by the crop factor (digital multiplier) of 1.5-2, depending on the brand of DSLR camera on which the lens will be used. To
nd which DC lens is equivalent to a full-frame lens, divide the focal length of the full frame lens by the same crop factor.
