Designed for use with full-frame DSLRs, the 12-24mm is a wide-angle zoom that offers an exceptionally wide focal length for anyone needing a very wide angle-of-view. The lens is perfect for landscape photography, interiors, events and architecture, and the constant F4 aperture provides fast shutter speeds in low light.
Optically the lens is extremely impressive, delivering edge-to-edge sharpness even at 12mm, allowing photographers to capture scenes in remarkable detail, even on the highest resolution DSLR cameras. This is thanks to its advanced optical design that includes 5 FLD elements, 1 SLD element and 2 aspherical elements.
The SIGMA 12-24mm F4 lens also features a durable and weather-resistant design, making it suitable for use in a variety of shooting conditions.
The 12-24mm boasts one of the widest focal lengths on the market, and is perfect for architecture, interiors and landscapes.

Brilliant lens from SIGMA | Sigma 14mm f1.4 DG DN ART lens
28mm angle of view used to be a representative wide-angle in the era of film cameras, and attracts many fans even today. To accommodate the request from many photographers who expressed the strong interest in using the familiar 28mm with Art line quality, SIGMA produces the SIGMA 28mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art, based on the know-how gained through development of the Art F1.4 prime lens lineup released so far. This newest traditional wide-angle lens, advantaged by the latest design and materials, as well as the processing technologies, is now available from SIGMA’s Art line.

Two wide-angle zooms for DSLRs
The 12-24mm and 14-24mm are SIGMA’s two widest-angle full-frame zooms for DSLRs. With exactly the same weight, AF motor and maximum aperture, and near identical build quality, length and optical designs, they are very similar lenses. The main differences are F2.8 aperture of the 14-24mm, and the wider angle-of-view of the 12-24mm.
