The Sigma 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports lens is a versatile and powerful zoom lens designed for use with full-frame and APS-C format cameras. It features a fast and precise autofocus system, image stabilization, and weather sealing for reliable use in challenging conditions. The lens is well-regarded for its sharp image quality, reaching from 60mm to 600mm with its zoom range, making it a useful tool for sports, wildlife, and nature photography. However, the lens is relatively heavy compared to other lenses in its class, which may make it difficult to use for extended periods of time.
At a price of $1,999, the 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 has the potential to replace two or three lenses, making it an excellent value proposition. It comes with a range of impressive features, including:
- HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) focusing motor for quick and precise autofocus suitable for demanding action
- Improved Optical Stabilizer system offering up of 7 stops of compensation at the wide end and 6 stops at the telephoto end
- Three Special Low Dispersion (SLD) elements and two F Low Dispersion (FLD) elements for reduced chromatic, spherical aberrations, and distortion and better sharpness
- Super Multi-Layer Coating for fewer flares and ghosting and increased contrast
- Water- and oil-resistant front coating
- Rounded nine-blade diaphragm for smoother bokeh
- Dual-action zoom
- Tripod collar
