Hi everyone! Selling a one year old Sigma 24-70 f2.8 EX DG lens for Pentax digital mount. It also works for full frame Pentax as well (not a APS sized lens). It's great for low light photography, internal focusing ring, EX professional build, comes with it's own professional soft case, lens hood and cap. Comes in original box, has a 7 year Canadian warranty (6 years remaining).

It retails at Henrys for $600CAN plus tax. I am selling at $450 CAN inclusive.

Available for pickup in the GTA.

Large aperture standard zoom lens provides superior performance both for Digital SLR Cameras and 35mm Film SLR Cameras.
To achieve an F2.8 aperture at all focal lengths, it employs three aspherical Lens to provide optimum aberration compensation. Two Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements are provided for color aberration compensation, to assure high image quality.

Optimized for digital SLR cameras
It incorporates "Super Multi Layer Coating" to reduce the influence of harmful light caused by reflections from the digital image sensor.

Excellent correction of aberrations
Two SLD elements, one Glass Mold Aspherical plus two Hybrid Aspherical lenses provide excellent correction of various aberrations and a high level of optical performance.

Minimum focusing distance of 40cm (15.7 inches)
The lens has a minimum focusing distance of 40cm (15.7 inches) at all focal lengths and is capable of macro photography with a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.8.

DF (Dual Focus) System
This lens incorporates a Dual Focus (DF) system that is designed to make the lens easy to hold during autofocusing, and yet provides a large focus ring for easy manual focusing.

Petal Type Hood
Since the front of the lens does not rotate, a Petal-type hood and circular polarizing filters can be easily used.

thanks! It's a very versatile lens. Most 2.8 lenses start at a weird focal length for digital: 28mm is not wide enough, while 24mm gives the extra needed wide angle.
