Duplicate of Sigma's 24mm f/1.8 Macro in Nikon mount — same as ID 3703.
The Sigma 24mm f/1.8 EX DG Aspherical Macro for Nikon F is a duplicate listing of the unique wide-angle macro prime described under ID 3703. It combines f/1.8 speed at 24mm with macro-like close focusing to 18cm — creating dramatic wide-angle close-up perspectives impossible with standard lenses. The EX designation indicates professional build quality.
Optical performance is decent for the era. The macro capability at 24mm creates unique creative possibilities. Sharpness is respectable from f/1.8. The aspherical element helps control aberrations. DG coatings reduce sensor reflections. The close-focus macro at ultra-wide angle is the unique selling point — no other lens offers this specific combination.
Nikon F mount. Filter thread is 77mm. Weight is approximately 520 grams. Build quality is solid EX tier. HSM motor for quiet AF. No image stabilisation. The 18cm close focus at 24mm creates dramatic in-your-face wide-angle macro perspectives that are genuinely impossible to achieve with any other lens design.
Available at low prices. Check AF and smooth focus. Same lens as ID 3703. The unique wide-angle macro capability remains interesting. The Sigma 24mm f/1.4 Art is the modern replacement for pure wide-angle quality but lacks the close-focus macro capability.
