Product Overview

Sigma 70-200 F2.8 DG OS HSM | Sport is a telephoto zoom lens for Canon EF-mount, Nikon F-mount, and Sigma SA-mount. It covers the full-frame image circle. Introduced by Sigma in 2018, it has 24 elements in 22 groups.
Photographers will be pleased by the fact that the lens is internally-zooming, meaning that the barrel does not extend when the focal length is changed. This helps balance and weather sealing; it is also great for long-term durability, as there is less chance for moisture and dirt to get in. For incremental weathers, Sigma is kind enough to include weather sealing.
As a telephoto zoom lens with a bright maximum aperture, the 70-200 F2.8 DG OS HSM is well suited for sports and portrait photography. Built-in image stabilization makes the lens easier to use handheld, and can be quite valuable for landscape works. Owners will also like the available tripod collar.

At 70mm f/2.8 it manages 3,817 lines on a center-weighted evaluation. Resolution is just shy of excellent at f/4 (3,913 lines) The weakest performance is at 200mm. There's a little bit of barrel distortion at 70mm, but it's not enough to notice in most shots.
