Sigma's proven 70-200mm f/2.8 workhorse for Nikon F shooters.
The 70-200mm f/2.8 focal range is the most-used range in professional photography for a reason, and Sigma's APO EX HSM version delivers it at a constant f/2.8 across the entire zoom. That fixed maximum aperture means your exposure and depth of field stay predictable at 70mm or 200mm, which matters when you're working quickly. The APO (Apochromatic) optical design addresses chromatic aberration by correcting how different wavelengths of light converge, keeping edges clean and contrast strong across the frame.
The HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) drives autofocus through an ultrasonic mechanism that is both quick and quiet, a real asset when you need the lens to keep up with moving subjects without announcing itself. EX-grade construction means tighter tolerances in the barrel and optical assembly. The 77mm filter thread is a standard size shared across many professional lenses, so existing circular polarizers or ND filters slot right in. Compatible with Nikon N90S bodies and later, this lens covers the full range of Nikon F-mount film and digital bodies.
Who It's For
Wedding photographers working ceremony aisles will get clean separation at f/2.8 from 70mm to 200mm without changing lenses mid-event. Sports and action shooters benefit from the HSM motor's speed when tracking athletes at the longer end of the range. Portrait photographers pulling back to 135mm or 200mm at f/2.8 get subject isolation without needing a prime. Nikon F-mount users on film bodies like the N90S or any modern DSLR body have full native compatibility with no adapter required.

FAQ
- Does the f/2.8 aperture stay constant throughout the zoom range?
- Yes. The constant f/2.8 maximum aperture holds from 70mm to 200mm, so exposure and depth of field remain predictable whether you're at the short or long end.
- What does APO optical design actually do?
- It corrects chromatic aberration by aligning how different light wavelengths focus, which keeps edges sharp and contrast clean across the frame.
- How fast is the HSM autofocus?
- The Hyper Sonic Motor drives autofocus quickly and quietly using an ultrasonic mechanism, so it keeps up with moving subjects without announcing itself.
- What filter size does this lens use?
- 77mm. That's a standard size, so most existing circular polarizers, ND filters, and other accessories will mount directly.
- Will this lens work on my Nikon F-mount camera?
- It's compatible with Nikon N90S bodies and later. If your camera is an N90S or newer, you're good to go.
- What does EX-grade construction mean?
- Tighter tolerances in the barrel and optical assembly compared to standard versions, which means more consistent performance and durability.
