MORE LENSES TO EXPRESS MORE OF YOUR VISION

Sigma lenses — fully compatible with the SD9 digital SLR and 35mm SLRs.

Great lenses, of course, unleash the creative potential of single-lens reflex cameras. By making the SD9 compatible with the entire lineup of lenses originally created for 35mm SLRs, SIGMA extends its heritage of superior optical technology to digital SLR photographers who are determined to take their visions farther. The SIGMA family of interchangeable lenses is comprehensive, including fixed focal length, macro, zoom, fisheye, and mirror models, covering a range from 8mm fisheye to 800mm super zoom. In every measure, every lens we make exemplifies state - of-the - art performance and user-friendly operation for digital and 35mm film SLR photography alike. Naturally, SD9 photographers stand to benefit from SIGMA’s far-reaching dedication to capturing the essence of every moment.

[ WIDE ZOOM LENS ]

Wide zoom lenses offer freedom for controlling angle and perspective for shooting big buildings, expansive scenery, snap shots, and group photographs.

[ STANDARD ZOOM LENS ]

Standard zoom lenses provide wide coverage that suits a broad range of spontaneous photo opportunities.

[ TELEPHOTO ZOOM LENS ]

Providing mobility and closeup detail, telephoto zoom lenses can capture from afar impressive photographs of wild animals in the field or faces of athletes playing in stadiums.

[ HIGH PERFORMANCE ZOOM LENS ]

High performance zoom lenses can quickly, clearly focus on various subjects within a range from close to distant.

[ WIDE LENS ]

Wide zoom lenses display their capabilities on expansive scenes. SIGMA makes an 8mm fisheye lens covering 180 degrees, and other wide lenses up to 28mm.

[ TELEPHOTO LENS ]

Telephoto lenses offer a closer-up view of distant or inaccessible subject detail, or enhance an image’s feeling of airiness by compressing perspective within a shallow depth of field and softly blurring the background.

[ MACRO LENS ]

Macro lenses widen the creative pallette by offering a clear perspective on small flowers, insects, and more — great for closeups of nature in dramatic detail.

Image sensor dust protector

Other digital SLR cameras are typically vulnerable to dust entering the body when the lens is dismounted for changing. But the SIGMA SD9 features a special dust protec- tor that at all times keeps dust from entering

and adhering to the image sensor. This ensures extra durability and reliable imaging integrity, even after long, rugged use.

it’s particularly useful for macro or telephoto zoom shooting.
