Sigma Lenses Handcrafted in Japan

Handcrafted In Japan

Home is Aizu, Japan

Here, mastery is a result of rigor and discipline. We abide by that conviction with no compromise - nearly every component of every last Sigma lens is handcrafted in Japan.

Sigma's Superlative Craftsmanship

A good artist lets raw creativity reign. But a legendary artist knows that dedication and practice are cornerstones of a true masterpiece.

Nearly Every Component is Small-Batch

At Sigma Photo, problem-solving and improvements happen on micro levels. We take communication back to the basics: think face to face. Our well-established and self-sustaining framework enable feedback to be passed up and down the production chain for unparalleled adeptness and refinement.

We Take MADE IN JAPAN Seriously

Almost every last component of every Sigma lens is made in Aizu. Grinding lenses, molding plastic parts, painting, assembly, manufacturing screws and other parts, and machining molds...you name it, we painstakingly perfect it in our factory.

Sigma Global Vision Line

We've redefined photographers' relationships with their craft. The categorization of our top-of-the-line lenses allows a photographer to connect with their gear on a level that doesn't simply appeal to technical proficiency, but also to their professionalism and deep-seated creative passion.
