This lens is the smallest and lightest in its class, embodying the core concept of the
Contemporary line: achieving an optimal balance between optical performance and lens size. This new optic delivers professional-quality results in a body small enough to take on a casual outing. Sigma's optical engineers have introduced a new combination of coatings and structural elements that make this standard zoom lens well-equipped for use in a wide range of shooting environments. The lens features an advanced optical design that includes three aspherical, two FLD, and two SLD elements. Despite using fewer elements in total than the 24-70mm F 2.8 DG DN Art, the design results in a thorough correction of axial chromatic aberration and sagittal coma aberration, allowing users to create images that are uniformly sharp from the center to the edges of the frame. The Sigma 28-70mm F 2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens also features a water and oil repellant coating on the front side of the lens. It is a large-aperture standard zoom lens that is essential for photographing a wide variety of subjects in a range of shooting conditions. With the addition of the new 28-70mm F 2.8 DG DN Contemporary, Sigma now provides two optimal solutions of standard F 2.8 zoom lens for mirrorless cameras.
This lens achieves remarkable portability and offers the same optical performance as the existing 24-70mm F 2.8 DG DN Art, which is for pro-use with the highest levels of performance throughout its focal range. The lens features a lightweight focusing element and a quiet and fast stepping motor, making for responsive and near-silent autofocus performance. The supreme portability of a camera system that weighs less than 1kg gives photographers a huge amount of freedom and flexibility to achieve their creative vision. The Sigma 28-70mm F 2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens offers a new and improved photographic experience for mirrorless users who require a fast aperture standard zoom lens. Its premium, intuitive build makes it as exciting to use the lens as it is to see the incredible images it can produce, inspiring you to start achieving your creative potential.
