Product Description:
This large-aperture wide-angle lens is equipped macro focusing capability with a maximum magnification of 1: 2.7 and fast F1.8 maximum aperture. The use of aspherical lenses is offered for superior peripheral brightness and compensation of aberrations and astigmatism. This is an ideal DG lens for Digital SLR cameras.
Amazon.com Product Description:
The Sigma 432-109 24mm f1.8 EX DG Aspherical Macro Lens for SLR Cameras has a super multi-coating that reduces flare and ghosting that tends to occur when using digital SLR cameras. The Sigma EX DG is a large-aperture, wide-angle lens for close up photography.
This large-aperture wide-angle lens is equipped with macro focusing capability down to a minimum of 18 centimeters, or f1.8 aperture speed, which provides a reproduction ratio of 1:2.7. The use of two aspherical lens elements in a floating focus system minimizes distortion, spherical aberration and astigmatism, which provides high performance at all shooting distances, as well as superior peripheral brightness. This 24-millimeter lens has an angle of view of 84.1 degrees, which allows the capturing of high-quality images not only of your subject, but of the surrounding scenery. Not only does the advanced optical construction of this lens enable it to receive adequate peripheral brightness at open aperture, but the iris diaphragm has 9 diaphragm blades that allow it to obtain beautiful out-of-focus images in the foreground and background. For handling, this lens also incorporates a Dual-Focus (DF) mechanism that makes it easy to hold the lens, since the focusing ring does not rotate during auto-focus, yet it still provides adequate focusing torque for the focusing ring during manual focusing of the lens. This has the added benefit of allowing the use of a Petal-type hood, which is superior in its light-blocking effect.
The Sigma 432-109 macro lens is constructed with 10 elements in nine groups of diaphragm blades, and has a minimum aperture of f22. This lens allows filters that are 77-millimters in diameter, weighs 17.1 ounces, and measures 3.3 x 3.2 inches (Diameter x Length). This lens is compatible with Sigma, Canon, Nikon (D), Minolta (D), and Pentax cameras with corresponding AF mounts.

Average Rating:
Rating: - That's all you need
This lens works pretty well with my Pentax K10D.
Nice Sharpness, nice contrast, and good saturation
It has a better control of image shape than all my zoom lenses since it has a fixed focal length 24mm.
I found a problem of it. However, that doesn't bother me much.
The motor sounds pretty noisy, but won't be noticeable if you take shots in noisy places such as parties and outdoor.
I've owned this lens for more than one year and completely enjoyed it so far.
