Uncompromising optical performance throughout the zoom range

The SIGMA 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS | Sports offers outstanding optical performance throughout its zoom range and at all apertures, yielding professional quality results.
Based on the latest optical design technology, its lens construction of 25 elements in 15 groups includes a range of special types of high-performance glass that ensures thorough control of different types of aberrations. This helps give images the resolution and clearest detail—not only at the tele end around 600mm, which is critical for an ultra-telephoto zoom, but also throughout its entire zoom range—with no compromise. The lens was designed with image quality in the out-of-focus areas in mind as well, with attractive compression and beautiful bokeh for creating eye-catching images that can only be achieved with a long focal length.
Through improvements to the optical and mechanical designs as well as extensive simulated testing, the lens has achieved high resistance to ghosting and flare. This helps ensure sharp and high-contrast images even in strong sunlight or in backlit conditions.
At the wide end of 150mm, the lens has an impressive minimum focusing distance of 58cm. On the L-Mount, the use of two dedicated teleconverters will allow you to shoot with AF up to 1200mm. With these features, this new ultra-telephoto lens is the perfect tool for tackling a broad range of shooting situations, giving you a greater freedom in your choice of composition.

Fast, high-precision AF and impressive functionality

The 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS | Sports comes with the pro-level functionality that defines the SIGMA Sports line lens, which is designed for capturing fast-action subjects.

With an AF actuator controlled by a stepping motor, the lens combines fast and quiet autofocus with excellent tracking of moving objects. Furthermore, a
high-precision magnetic sensor enables highly accurate positioning for fast and high-precision AF. This is particularly impressive on an ultra-telephoto lens where the focus lens has to move a significant distance.

The OS function delivers effective image stabilization that offers an advantage of approximately 4 stops*1, which is ideal for hand-held shooting at slower shutter speeds. It is possible to change the OS settings using the OS switch and Custom Mode switch to best suit the shooting situation. The lens has a Focus Limiter switch offering three-zone AF modification, which helps to speed up AF performance, and on the L-Mount it is possible to set a custom focusing limit*2 via the SIGMA USB DOCK UD-11. The lens also has three AFL buttons to which you can assign various functions on the camera side depending on the model of camera used. This ensures that key settings are able to be customized to suit your shooting style and be accessed easily so that you can adapt quickly to changing conditions.
With the fast and high-precision AF, 4 stops image stabilization, and a wide range of customizable functionality that comes with the SIGMA 150-600mm F5-6.3 DG DN OS | Sports, the creative possibilities are limitless.

1 AFL buttons
Various functions can be assigned to three AFL buttons on the camera side depending on the model of camera used.
2 Zoom Torque switch
The newly developed switch lets you change the zoom ring torque (resistance) and lock it at the wide end.
L (Lock): The zoom ring fixed at the wide end.
T (Tight): The zoom ring torque set on the higher side and kept at a focal length. This prevents the lens from extending or retracting due to its own weight when pointed either upward or downward.
S (Smooth): The zoom ring torque set to low allows the lens to zoom in and out smoothly, suitable for straight zoom.

5 OS switch
The OS switch toggles between two OS settings: Mode 1 for general photography and Mode 2 for motor sports and other applications requiring panning.
6 Custom Mode switch

Default setting: for Sony E-Mount

Switch the OS effect.OFF: Standard
The OS effect is well-balanced and suitable for a wide variety of scenes.
C1: Dynamic View Mode
This mode offers a recognizable OS effect to the image in the viewfinder. This helps to ensure the composition of images quickly.
C2: Moderate View Mode
This mode is quickly able to ascertain the difference between fine composition adjustment and unwanted camera shake. It provides a natural and smooth viewfinder image even when composition is changed rapidly.For L-Mount (with USB DOCK UD-11)
The OS effect and a focus limiter setting can be assigned to either C1 or C2.
