18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art overview

The Sigma 18-35mm F1.8 DC HSM | Art is an 18–35mm f/1.8 zoom for APS-C cameras on Canon EF / EF-S, Nikon F, Pentax K and Sony A-mount, announced by Sigma in April 2013. 28 cameras we track take it without an adapter. It is discontinued, so new stock may be limited.

Going by its spec sheet, it suits low light.

New, it sells for $740.79 to $899 at the 3 stores we track in the United States that have it in stock; used and refurbished copies start at $277.13. Over the last 90 days it has usually cost $741 to $879 new. It launched at $799.

Worth comparing it with the Ricoh HD DA 20-40mm F2.8-4 ED Limited DC WR and Ricoh HD DA★ 16-50mm F2.8 ED PLM AW.
