Liz O. Baylen / Born in 1979, she graduated from Ohio University’s School of Visual

Communications in 2001 and began working for The Washington Times. She has covered

assignments around the world and was selected as a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize while with

The Washington Times. Most recently, her images have appeared in several major newspapers.

Photo data: SIGMA 24-70 mm F2.8 IF EX DG HSM. 1/800 second exposure at F5.0

LIZ O. BAYLEN SHOOTS THE WORLD WITH A SIGMA LENS

Focusing on the ball, just as a player would, here in New York’s Central Park.

The passion that this croquet player infuses into this ball is apparent in his fingertips. This shot was

captured by a Sigma lens, a large aperture standard zoom lens optimized for full-frame digital SLR

cameras. Benefiting from the latest optical design, a compact body length of only 3.7 in. (94.7mm) is

achieved. Extra Low Dispersion (ELD), Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass elements and three

aspherical lenses compensate for color aberrations and ensure high image quality. The Super Layer

Multi Coating reduces flare and ghosting, and the Hyper Sonic Motor (HSM) ensures quiet, high-speed

autofocus while allowing full-time manual focus override. With case, petal-type hood (LH876-01)

Corresponding AF mounts: Sigma, Canon, Nikon, Sony, Pentax

Large aperture standard zoom lens optimized for full-frame digital SLR cameras that features a compact design and an HSM system.

A man at the beach is enveloped by the gentle rays of the setting California sun.

In the fading light of day, on his way home from work, a man hits the waves. This single moment in the

man’s lifetime was captured by a high magnification, compact Sigma zoom lens for digital SLR cam-

eras equipped with Sigma’s original Optical Stabilizer function. Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass

elements and aspherical lens elements provide excellent image quality throughout the entire zoom

range. The Super multi-layer coating helps reduce flare and ghosting, and the Hyper Sonic Motor

(HSM) ensures a quiet and high-speed AF.With lens hood (LH780-04)
