Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Lens – L Mount(592969)

The optical design of the Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens is based on the 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | Art, which is renowned for its outstanding optical performance throughout its zoom range. True to the Contemporary line’s core concept, the 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN was developed to offer the right balance of performance and portability, and as such, this large-aperture standard zoom delivers outstanding image quality that rivals Art line lenses in a body light enough for day-to-day use.

Building on state-of-the-art technology, the Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens has an advanced optical design that includes three aspherical, two FLD, and two SLD elements. Despite using fewer elements in total than the 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | A, the design results in a thorough correction of axial chromatic aberration and sagittal coma aberration, which cannot be corrected in-camera, allowing users to create images that are uniformly sharp from the centre to the edges of the frame. Along with its anti-ghosting design, the use of Super Multi-Layer Coating and NanoPorous Coating means well-controlled flare for high-contrast results in backlit conditions. It also features a water and oil-repellent coating on the front side of the lens.

In short, the Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens combines all of the key optical features required of a large-aperture standard zoom lens, which are essential for photographing a wide variety of subjects in a range of shooting conditions.

With the addition of the new 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN | C, SIGMA now offers two high-performance, F2.8, standard zoom options for mirrorless cameras. This new lens offers the same professional optical performance as the existing 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | C, but it comes in at 365g lighter (figures for L-Mount version) so has the added benefit of being exceptionally portable.
