Sigma Corporation Unveils Groundbreaking 200mm F2 DG OS | Sports Lens
Sigma Corporation of America, the esteemed US arm of Sigma Corporation (CEO: Kazuto Yamaki; Headquarters: Asao-ku, Kawasaki-shi, Kanagawa, Japan), is thrilled to announce the impending release of the Sigma 200mm F2 DG OS | Sports lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras, set to debut in early September 2025.
This innovative lens is distinguished as the first-ever 200mm F2 telephoto prime lens tailored for full-frame mirrorless systems.
The Sigma 200mm F2 DG OS | Sports embodies the essence of large-aperture telephoto prime lenses, perfect for capturing portraits and high-energy indoor sports. The F2 maximum aperture enables faster shutter speeds, essential for freezing rapid movements while producing striking bokeh.
This artistic quality beautifully isolates subjects by skillfully blurring backgrounds and foregounds, effectively enhancing depth perception. Renowned for its exceptional sharpness and resolution, Sigma’s reputation for superior large-aperture lenses continues with this model.
Additionally, as part of the Sigma Sports line, the lens boasts robust construction and weather resistance, allowing professionals to operate in demanding conditions without compromising gear integrity.
Exceptional edge-to-edge resolution is realized through an intricate optical design comprising 19 elements arranged in 14 groups, featuring 2 FLD and 2 SLD glass elements. This design meticulously corrects aberrations while minimizing flare and ghosting.
The lens benefits from a swift and accurate autofocus system powered by Sigma’s HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor, which facilitates rapid subject acquisition and consistent tracking. Furthermore, the integrated optical stabilization utilizes Sigma’s OS2 algorithm, ensuring clarity in handheld shooting, even in the fast-paced realm of sports photography.
Moreover, the rugged construction intrinsic to Sigma’s Sports line is exemplified in the dust and splash-resistant design, complete with a protective water and oil-repellent coating on the front element, thermal insulation paint, and a newly crafted tripod socket compatible with Arca-Swiss type tripods.
The Sigma 200mm F2 DG OS | Sports lens will be available in early September through authorized Sigma dealers in the United States, supporting both Sony E-mount and L-Mount, with a retail price of $3,299 USD.
Key Features:
- The world’s inaugural 200mm F2 full-frame mirrorless lens with unparalleled optical capabilities.
- High-speed autofocus paired with optical stabilization to maximize performance.
