Sigma EX DC 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC 10-20mm
Three special low-dispersion glass elements and two aspherical lenses in the 10-20mm zoom produce sharp ultra-wide images with reduced color fringing and distortion. A multilayer coating minimizes flare, while the 24cm minimum focus distance and light 472g build offer versatile close-up framing. This lens suits Sony/Minolta APS-C DSLR shooters who need an affordable, wide perspective for landscapes and interiors.
