By on

Egami spotted a new patent filed by Sigma. The new patent describes the Sigma 17-55mm f/2.8 OS lens designed for DSLR cameras with APS-c sized sensors.

Sigma has several patents filed for a standard APS-C zoom lens with fixed aperture as the Sigma 16-50mm f/2.8 without OS also another pending on the list.

As we know the company already has the very popular 17-70mm f/2.8-4 lens and the Sigma 17-55mm f/2.8 OS will sure be a very good option to choose as fixed aperture of 2.8. See the patent details below.
