The newest Sigma Art lens is a unique piece of camera equipment that boasts some impressive qualities. The 14-24mm F2.8 DG HSM Art lens is designed for 50-megapixel-plus cameras, and is focused on maximum sharpness and high resolution. In addition to the upgrade in photo-quality, Sigma also claims that its newest lens has less than one-percent distortion, despite the wide angle nature of the lens. This is an impressive spec for the lens as it ensures that photos don't appear to have any warping, a quality common with wide angle lenses.
The new Sigma Art lens also comes equipped with minimal chromatic aberration, flare, and ghosting. The auto-focus system also gets an upgrade as the lens can lock in on a subject that is 10.2 to 11 inches from the lens front. The design also offers a dirt and splash-proof design, making it perfect for shooting in a variety of conditions. The newest Sigma Art lens will easily fit into any Canon, Nikon and Sigma cameras, and a teleconverter will be available for Sony E-Mounts.
