Sigma 18-35mm T2 Cine Zoom

The Sigma 18-35mm T2 Cine Zoom is widely regarded as one of the most flexible and high-performing wide-to-standard zoom lenses in the Super 35 cinema segment. Built on the optical foundation of Sigma’s renowned still photography zoom, this cine-optimized version delivers true cinematic performance with consistent T2 aperture, precise mechanics, and exceptional optical clarity.

Designed for modern film production workflows, the lens covers a highly practical focal range from wide-angle to normal perspective, making it ideal for narrative filmmaking, commercials, documentaries, and broadcast environments. Its constant T2 aperture ensures reliable exposure control across the entire zoom range, even in challenging lighting conditions.

Optically, the lens delivers sharpness across the frame with controlled chromatic aberration and minimal distortion, even when shooting wide open. The cine housing features industry-standard gearing for focus, iris, and zoom, enabling seamless integration with professional rigs, follow focus systems, and motorized control units.

The 18-35mm T2 Cine Zoom is also designed for consistency in multi-lens setups, matching Sigma’s cine line in color science and mechanical layout. This allows for fast lens changes without recalibration of accessories, saving valuable production time on set.

With its compact form factor, robust construction, and exceptional optical performance, this lens has become a staple in indie filmmaking, high-end commercial work, and studio productions where flexibility and image quality are equally critical.
