Item Description
SIGMA EX 17-35mm f/2.8-4 ASPH. Dia.82mm filters, Full-frame
In original makers packaging with all papers & accessories (hood, both caps & case).

Film era full frame sigma wide angle zoom. Straight blades - this lens makes well defined crisp sunstars, closed down a couple of stops. 8 blades, so 8 points to the sunstars.
I confirm that on my K1 at 17mm, the lens is full frame. Tried it out for this sale. Corners acceptable and centre gets very sharp as you close down to f8/f11. Vignetting reduces steadily as you stop down. Distortion surprisingly low. Color balance good. AF is screw, but fast and accurate. Nice build quality, rather small and light. And it takes dia.82mm filters. Well suited for landscape and travel. At F8/F11 on the K1 it looks respectable. Would not employ it for astro or interiors off a tripod. For travel landscape work it should be a useful (and portable lens).
Not many options available for the K1 this wide - certainly not at this price point and with the ability to take sensible size filters.

New old stock that I bought from a camera store. Bought it after buying a 15-30/2.8 as the size of that beast left it unused. I ended up using my A-20/2.8 and FA 31, so I have not used this lens other than testing it on my K1 for this sale.
Inspected carefully and the lens is pristine & in new condition.
I rated the condition lower as the exterior box has some visible wear - see the photos.

No warranty.

Tried the lens out on the K1 and updated the sale with comments accordingly.
For someone looking for a low cost WA FF zoom for travel & landscape shots.....
At 17mm f8/f11 is respectable.
