Overview

Truly a revolutionary product, the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM is the first wide-angle to standard zoom lens to achieve a large aperture of 1.8. Designed specifically for APS-C sized sensors, the Sigma 18-35mm 1.8 translates to 27mm-52.5mm on 35mm camera. Tapping into Sigma’s long history of lens innovations, the 18-35mm 1.8 DC HSM incorporates a wide glass molded aspherical lens with Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass to compensate for aberrations and curvature at the widest angle. Internal focusing and zooming allows for more usability and functionality. The 18-35mm is ideal for landscapes, portraits, still life, snap shots, casual, and close-ups and the Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) ensures smooth, fast and accurate autofocusing. The use of Thermally Composite Material (TSC) reduces size and weight but increases the lens durability. Its new Global Vision design works with its compatibility with the Sigma USB dock for further customization. A 9 blade rounded diaphragm also creates beautiful background blur. The Sigma 18-35mm 1.8 DC HSM is a new benchmark in photographic history and a must have for every camera bag.

Julian ★★★★★

The f/1.8 aperture across the whole zoom range is a game changer for indoor shooting—I've gotten sharp shots in near-darkness without cranking the ISO. My only gripe is the weight, but the image quality more than makes up for it.

Lily W. ★★★★★

Shooting indoors without a flash is finally possible—f/1.8 across the whole zoom range is a game changer for my APS-C body. The autofocus is quick and quiet, and it’s built like a tank. Only wish it weren’t so heavy, but the image quality makes up for it.

Violet S. ★★★★☆

The focus ring is buttery smooth, and that constant f/1.8 really does make low-light shooting effortless on my crop body. It’s a bit heavy for everyday carry, but the sharpness at wide open is worth the extra weight in my bag.
