Sigma 70mm f/2.8 Art DG Macro lens, Canon EF

Sigma 70mm A DG Macro - Dazzling performance and brightness

Finally, the Art series also offers a macro lens, the Sigma 70mm A DG Macro. In recent years, macro lenses on standard mimes have been made with an internal focus design to get the autofocus speed to maximum. The Sigma 70mm A DG Macro, on the other hand, has been made with image quality in mind to achieve the top image quality characteristic of the Art series of lenses. This has made it possible to fill the demanding gap in the Art lens. In the standard and half stop range, the lens quality is dazzling and wonderfully bright in proportions that exceed all expectations for macro lenses. A core-free DC motor further enhances image quality, and optimized algorithms help achieve extremely smooth autofocus performance with heavier performance glass. Photographers may be reminded of a legendary razor-sharp macro lens: the Sigma Macro 70mm F2.8 EX DG, and find that it's back, but with even higher quality and a modern look.

Photography goes in seasons, sometimes a little more, sometimes a little less. However, macro photography is such that when the fly bites, you can't wait for summer to come to take pictures. I guess it's because it's seasonal, but all in all, macro photography opens up new worlds that are worth experiencing. There is something soothing and utterly beautiful about the magnitude of small things and being around them.
