By incorporating multiple large-diameter, exclusive low-dispersion glass elements that are challenging to process, SIGMA succeeded in significantly downsizing the lens construction without the use of diffractive optical elements. At the same time, the lens has achieved high resolving power that meets the expectations for a 500mm prime lens. The lens body, composed mainly of high-precision engineering plastic parts, has excellent build quality and weather resistance, including dust and splash-resistant structure*, despite its compact size. With its rich descriptive power and incredibly compact size for its focal length, the handy-size SIGMA 500mm F5.6 DG DN OS | Sports offers a whole new photographic experience for wildlife, aviation, sports and other fast-action photographers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eKey Features of the Sigma 500mm f\/5.6 DG DN OS Sport - Sony E-Mount\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-Frame | f\/5.6 to f\/32\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight and Compact Ultra-Telephoto Prime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptimized for Handheld Action Capture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-Response Linear Actuator AF System\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOptical Stabilizer with OS2 Algorithm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtra-Low Dispersion Glass Elements\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemovable, Rotating Tripod Foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDust- and Splash-Resistant Construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"gText\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003ePerfect for hand-held shooting, a 500mm lens with unparalleled optical performance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe latest optical design using exclusive low-dispersion glass elements has succeeded in achieving both an extremely compact lens construction and high optical performance with excellent correction of aberrations.

By utilizing exclusive low-dispersion convex elements at the front of the lens, the lens delivers both a high aberration correction capability and a short overall length. The high level of production technology at SIGMA’s only manufacturing base, the Aizu factory, provides the exacting precision necessary for processing the exclusive low-dispersion glass elements with a large aperture. The lens has excellent correction of all aberrations, especially axial chromatic aberration, which cannot be corrected by the camera body, ensuring a stable high resolution from the centre to the periphery of the image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eExcellent backlight resistance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe SIGMA 500mm F5.6 DG DN OS | Sports uses refractive lenses in its optical system to prevent flare and ghosting that are characteristics of diffractive optical elements, allowing for clear images without concern for flare or ghosting even in backlit conditions or when a light source is included in the image. Furthermore, measures are taken against all conditions of incident light based on state-of-the-art simulation technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eHigh-speed AF with a linear motor HLA\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA linear motor HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) is used for the actuator, which is characterized by its high driving accuracy owing to the advanced electronic control, as well as its quietness.

The lens is equipped with two OS modes: Mode 1 is suitable for general shooting, and Mode 2 is ideal for panning shots of motorsports and other sports. In Mode 2, SIGMA’s Intelligent OS, an algorithm specially designed for panning shots, enables effective image stabilization even when the camera is moved vertically or diagonally, irrespective of the horizontal and vertical orientation. This ensures that the subject’s movement can be captured without losing the panning shot effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h2Lit\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"h2Lit\"\u003eCompact, lightweight and excellent build quality\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lens body has been designed to be small and lightweight in line with the optical system, which has been made significantly more compact.
