    Product Name: Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 DC HSM ART Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras 210-306
    Product Description: The Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 DC HSM Lens for Nikon is a wide-angle to normal-length zoom lens that features a fast, bright constant f/1.8 maximum aperture. It is specifically designed for use with APS-C-sized sensors and provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length range of 27-52.5mm.The lens integrates one aspherical element into its construction as well as Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass to help minimize various aberrations and distortions throughout the zoom range as well as provide greater image sharpness and clarity. A Super Multi-Layer Coating has also been applied to lens elements to reduce surface reflections, lens flare and ghosting to produce images with higher contrast and color fidelity. The lens barrel design is constructed from a Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) material that is akin to metal in texture and resistance to temperature and environmental changes while also remaining lightweight and compact. An internal focusing and zooming mechanism also helps to maintain a compact and consistent overall length and non-rotating front ring also better enables the use of circular polarizing filters. For control of focus, a Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) is used to ensure fast, precise and quiet focusing capabilities that are well suited to continuous shooting and movie recording.For updating lens firmware and fine-tuning its nuances to best suit your personal shooting, this lens is compatible with the Sigma USB Dock. The dock allows you to specify certain parameters and other settings through the Sigma Optimization Pro software, such as AF speed and focusing limitations.The Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 is commonly used for Landscape/scenery, Low light, Night photography, Video and more.The Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 is popular because customers like the following qualities of the Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8: Durable, Fast / accurate auto-focus, Nice bokeh, Rugged and Strong construction

    deeming it well-suited to creative image making due to its large, constant f/1.8 maximum aperture and ability to produce aesthetic bokeh by way of a nine-blade circular diaphragm
    One aspherical lens element, as well as the incorporation of SLD glass, help to minimize the appearance of distortions and aberrations throughout the zoom range and provide clear imagery with enhanced sharpness
    The Hyper Sonic Motor provides fast, quiet and smooth auto focusing that is well-suited for use with video applications. This AF motor can also be manually overridden at any time by rotating the focusing ring, giving you the ability to fine-tune image sharpness through manual focusing
    Constructed using a TSC compound material, this lens is lightweight while also exhibiting notable durability and resistance to environmental changes
    An internal focusing and zooming mechanism helps to maintain a consistent overall lens length and a non-rotating front ring facilitates more efficient use of circular polarizers

    Hah! You had your chance last month when it was that same price for Canon and those of us with Nikon were saying, "Wish it was for Nikon."

    Great deal, great lens (definitely leans more towards videography). The USB dock is abs necessary for this lens as it needs to be tweaked before photos are 100% sharp. I decided to sell mine because the lens is too large and heavy for everyday carry.

    This lens is also a great match to some speedboosters for mirrorless cameras. It shoots really sharp when the aperture is knocked down a half f-stop

    I don't love this lens, it's big and heavy and misses focus like many Sigmas. But at $500 it's worth having.

    Did you adjust focus using the USB dock?

    Would this be practical for my Z6, or is it strictly for crop-sensors?

    Yep, but it can still miss focus depends on your body. The customer service always asks me to bring my stuff in to take adjustment or ask what body I'm using.
