Product Overview

Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM | Contemporary is a standard zoom lens for Canon EF-mount, Nikon F-mount, Pentax K-mount, Sigma SA-mount, and Sony A-mount. It covers the APS-C image circle. Introduced by Sigma in 2012, it has 16 elements in 14 groups.
Like most zoom lenses, the Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM is externally-zooming.
A standard zoom lens with relatively bright maximum aperture, the Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM can be a key piece in a photographer's arsenal, though some may prefer prime lenses in this focal range. The lens is also stabilized, making it even easier to use for videos and stills alike.
