Sigma is a family-owned Japanese manufacturer of photographic lenses and cameras. Founded in 1961 by Michihiro Yamaki, and currently managed by his son Kazuto Yamaki, Sigma embodies a spirit on independence that allows us to explore different approaches and pursue our ideal of craftsmanship. We believe in quality and innovation without compromise. Every single lens, camera and accessory is manufactured to meet our high expectations at our sole production facility in Aizu, Japan in order to meet strict quality control standards. For more than sixty years, we have continued to set new standards in photographic equipment and provide photographers and filmmakers with powerful and long-lasting tools to realize their creative visions. Sigma values diversity and the freedom of everyone to create and express themselves through art. The continued expansion of our sales and service network reflects this perspective. As a global company, we embrace universal human values and strive to contribute to the well-being and happiness of people in every region where we operate. Over the past two centuries, photography has become an ever closer part of our daily lives. Yet despite its ubiquity, the act of photography remains profoundly fascinating: a fleeting moment captured and preserved through a synthesis of optical, chemical, and digital processes. Each photograph reflects a personal way of seeing the world and is as unique as its creator. Our manufacturing philosophy is motivated by this inexhaustible nature of photography. We strive to push beyond existing boundaries to provide photographers and filmmakers with the best possible cameras and lenses to express their vision.
