Sigma Adds In-Camera Lens Aberration Correction Compatibility for Canon via Firmware Updates

From Sigma:

Thank you for purchasing and using our products.

We would like to announce that a new firmware update for SIGMA interchangeable lenses for Canon is now available.

This firmware allows compatibility with Canon’s in-camera Lens Aberration Correction function to enable correction matching the optical characteristics of each lens. It also corrects the phenomenon that abnormal images appear or operation errors occur when the function is enabled.

For customers who own the SIGMA USB DOCK and applicable products listed below, please update the firmware via SIGMA Optimization Pro.

Before updating the firmware using the SIGMA USB DOCK, please ensure to update SIGMA Optimization Pro to Ver. 1.4.1 or later for Windows, and Ver. 1.4.0 or later for Macintosh.
