Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 IF EX DG HSM Lens for Nikon F
Fast Standard Zoom – Wide-to-Telephoto Range, Constant f/2.8 Aperture, Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) & Internal Focus (No Hood Included)

The Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 IF EX DG HSM is a versatile standard zoom lens designed for full-frame and APS-C format Nikon F-mount cameras. Covering wide-angle to short telephoto perspectives, this fast everyday workhorse optic is tailored for event photography, portraiture, landscapes, and daily photojournalism. Its bright constant f/2.8 maximum aperture supports shooting in low-light environments while offering shallow depth-of-field control paired with a 9-blade rounded diaphragm for smooth background blur.

Optically, the lens incorporates three aspherical elements, one Extra Special Low Dispersion (ELD) element, and two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements to minimize chromatic aberrations, color fringing, and spherical distortion across the zoom range. Autofocus is driven by an integrated Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) featuring an Internal Focusing (IF) design, delivering fast, quiet, and precise AF tracking without altering the physical barrel length.
