  85mm F1.4 EX DG HSM
This large aperture, medium telephoto lens is optimized for use with full-frame, DSLR cameras and is especially ideal for portrait and low light photography. When used on DSLRs with an APS-C size image sensor, it effectively becomes a 127.5mm F1.4 lens. The high-speed aperture is great for a portrait photographer who is looking to isolate details in their subject, with a pleasant, out-of-focus background. One-touch, full-time manual focus is perfect for the critical, professional photographer. One Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass element and a glass mold element offers excellent correction for all types of aberrations and ensures superior optical performance.

  17-50mm F2.8 EX DC OS HSM
This large-aperture, standard-zoom lens, is designed for small chip, APS-C digital cameras and is among the smallest, lightest in its class. Sigma's Optical Stabilization (OS) allows for hand-held photography and only Sigma has made it possible for Pentax and Sony shooters to utilize an anti-shake system in either the lens or the camera body. The new, FLD glass provides performance equal to fluorite glass delivering optical glass with a low refractive index and low dispersion compared to current optical glass. Ultra compact, perfect for wedding and event shooters.

  120-300mm F2.8 EX DG APO OS HSM
A one-of-a-kind, fast, fixed-aperture telephoto zoom designed for full frame digital SLR cameras but may also be used with smaller APS-C size sensors with a corresponding effective increase in focal length to approximately 180-450mm with most cameras. With "F" Low Dispersion (FLD) glass elements and Sigma's proprietary Optical Stabilizer (OS) system it's a must-have for sports and wildlife photographers. Think of this as a prime 300mm F2.8 in terms of its ultra-high resolution, with the added bonus of it being an F2.8 constant-aperture zoom lens allowing the photographer to recompose the scene anywhere from 120mm to 300mm without having to change their capture position.

  50-500mm F4.5-6.3 APO DG OS HSM
This 10x high-zoom ratio, ultra telephoto zoom lens with the incorporation of Sigma's original Optical Stabilization (OS) function; only Sigma has made it possible for Pentax and Sony shooters to utilize an anti-shake system in either the lens or the camera body. Ideal for landscape and wildlife photography, but also boasts a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.1 at the focal length of 200mm, which allows photographers to focus close on small objects like flowers. The addition of the optional 1.4x EX DG or 2x EX DG APO tele converters produce a 70-700mm F6.3-8 or a 100-1000mm F9-12.6 MF zoom lens, respectively.

  70-200mm F2.8 EX DG APO OS HSM
This second-generation lens designed for use with full-frame, DSLR cameras may also be used with smaller, APS-c size sensors with a corresponding effective increase in focal length of 100-300mm with most cameras. It's revered for its incorporation of two of Sigma's new FLD glass elements and its unique Optical Stabilization (OS) technology available for Sony and Pentax users, while maintaining its compact dimensions. Its large aperture, impressive sharpness in low-light situations and zoom range make it a versatile option for photographers and photojournalists. Historically popular in Sigma's line of telephoto zoom lenses; it's truly one of those all-occasions, must-have lenses.
