Innovative Aberration-Correcting Optics
At the core of this lens lies Sigma's renowned expertise in specialized glass molding and advanced optical engineering. Their design successfully utilizes exclusive low-dispersion elements to realize a 500mm prime under 5 inches long that renders tack sharp images across the full frame.
Speedy & Precise Focus Tracking
Further setting this lens apart is its lightning quick, high-torque autofocus motor driven by proprietary HLA algorithms. This optimized AF system smoothly tracks erratic motion, locking in critical focus on subjects like athletes and wildlife. Photographers also get up to 5 stops of optical stabilization thanks to the enhanced algorithm.
Rugged, Feature-Packed Lens Barrel
The durable metal housing incorporates weather sealing, a customizable focus limiter, three auto focus buttons, aperture ring controls, and an Arca-Swiss tripod foot. Despite being ready for the harshest environments, Sigma's quality manufacturing ensures smooth functionality in all aspects.
For Sony E and Leica L shooters needing an ultra telephoto lens built for speed, distant reach, and demanding reliability, look no further than Sigma's masterfully designed 500mm F5.6 mirrorless prime.
