Sigma 878205 Overview

This dock is only compatible with the Sigma Art, Contemporary, and Sports line lenses featuring a Sony A lens mount.

Sigma Optimization Pro

Once a Sigma Art, Contemporary, or Sports line lens is connected, you can use the Sigma Optimization Pro software to configure focus settings and update lens firmware.

Focus Settings

For all lines of lenses, there are four categories for prime lenses and 16 categories (four options for focal length, four options for shooting distance) for zoom lenses available. These categories allow you to set certain focusing settings to better suit your personal shooting style.

Sports Line-Specific Settings

If using a Sports line lens, additional lens configurations are available: three different AF speed modes to modify how quickly the lens changes focus; the ability to constrain focus distances within a specific range to suit your personal shooting habits; and three Optical Stabilizer modes to suit the manner in which you are shooting.

You will need this if your Sigma lenses need adjustments. My a-mount Sigma 24-105mm was a bit front-focus out of box at 70mm and 105mm so I had to use it to make adjustments. The good thing was it came with the lens for free, part of the reason I grabbed deal as soon as it appeared.

I recently received a sigma 35mm 1.4 DG for Christmas, I was beyond excited! But i am having some serious auto-focus issues and even a little hang ups with the sensitivity on manual focus. After reading up on it, I purchased this dock . I was hoping to be able to customize the focus points and maybe get a little more fine tuning to the sony. The Sigma Optimization Software is really easy to use and install, they even provide step by step videos. Unfortunately, it just can't do much for my 35mm. I can see where it would work wonders for the longer range lenses , but don't waste the dollars for portrait length. The entire buying and installation process was definitely 5 stars, but the actual benefit of the product for me was lacking.

Could this help with my Sigma a mount 120-400mm? Noticed skmeissues with focussing when I shot a professional soccer match this weekend. I have it adapted to my A7RII (bought used and adapted cause of the affordability)

Asked by: Alexander

The Sigma USB Dock for Sony A-Mount Lenses will only work with Sigma Global Vision lenses. These are the Art, Sports or Contemporary lenses. Not with the Sigma 120mm-400mm lens released in 2008.

I have a combination of Canon EF and Sony E-mount Sigma lenses. Would the E-mount dock work with an adapted EF-mount Sigma lens? Or do I need two different docks?

No. Please review the following link on detailed lens compatible with the sigma docking station. https://bit.ly/3ug0yFZ

Is this necessary for my used Sigma A mount 120-400mm? I have it adapted to my A7RII and noticed some off points while trying to get it to focus on closer subjects while shotting a professional soccer match. Could this be useful?

Asked by: Alexander

The Sigma USB Dock for Sony A-Mount Lenses will only work with Sigma Global Vision lenses. These are the Art, Sports or Contemporary lenses. Not with the Sigma 120mm-400mm lens that you have, because it was released in 2008, and it doesn't have the connectors for that dock.

question

Does it make sense to buy to upgrade firmware Sigma 18-35/1.8 for Sony? Or there was no update for this lens? I have it not work correctly through the LA-EA3 with A6300.

Asked by: Oleksandr K.

I don't think there is a firmware update for the Sony mount version of the 18-35mm f/1.8.However, you almost for sure need the dock to adjust your autofocus, because I have never heard of the 18-35 having perfect autofocus on a Sony camera yet. I had to do a lot of adjusting to get my focus correct.As for it not working with the la-ea3 and the a6300, I don't know if there is a fix for that.Good luck.

question

dimension?

Asked by: Anonymous

The unit fits onto the end of your lens in place of the camera. It is smaller diameter than the 35 mm Sigma art lens, and although do not have it in front of me maybe an inch tall.

question

Is this compatible to Sony E Mount's Sigma 18-300mm lens?

Asked by: Jack L.

Thank you for your interest in Sigma product. As of now, Sigma doesn't make a USB dock nor an 18-300mm lens in E_mount. This product is compatible with Sigma SGV lenses for Sony A-mount.
