12 Days of Christmas
Alex Parker
What a prolific year for Sigma!
Once considered nothing more than a 'budget' alternative to first party manufacturers, Sigma has long-since shed that moniker. Following years of tireless crafting and perfecting, the price conversation is no longer the only factor when considering your lens brand of choice, Sigma now regularly matches and even surpasses the alleged masters.
This has been no more evident than in 2023, a truly prolific year for Sigma with no less than eight new lenses across various mounts covering a vast focal range. In fact, the manufacturer really didn't waste any time in 2023, come out of the blocks back in January with the world's first 10x optical zoom telephoto lens with the Sigma 60-600mm F4.5-63. DG OS HSM | S. A new 50mm F1.4 DG DN | A followed to universal acclaim in February, described by Sigma as "the highest level of expressive performance".
Other highlights in 2023 included the ultra-wide 10-18mm F2.8 DC DN | C and a recently as November, the masterful new flagship Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS | Sport model.

Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 DG OS HSM | S (Nikon) - Just £44 exVAT for 12 days
Continuing the trend of disrupting the market, Sigma's 70-200mm is was a heck of a long time coming, but well worth the wait. Sigma's latest flagship comfortably rubs shoulders with the big guns, and does it at a staggeringly low price point in comparison to its rivals.

With all this in mind, it's no wonder this lens won Best Standard Zoom lens at the TIPA 2023 Awards. Try it yourself and see what all the fuss is about.
Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art (Sony) - Just £33 exVAT for 12 days
An award-winning wide angle lens, Sigma has really outdone itself with this one. Constructed of 13 elements in 11 groups, expect exceptional image quality and a minimum focus distance of just 30cm.
