Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens For L Mount Summary

With every new release we are reminded of why we love  so much. This is reinforced with the latest full frame L mount offering, which arrives as the Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens. Sigma has ported technology from their equivalent high-end Art lens into a more affordable, more compact and lightweight design under the Contemporary name. This allows photographers to bring a light zoom to any occasion thanks to the versatile focal width which is suitable for so many subjects. Photographers who shoot outdoors for landscapes or city scenes will love this model because of the weather resistance. Anyone who captures portraits or other subjects where pin sharp details blend against creamy bokeh will appreciate the bright f/2.8 rounded 9-blade aperture, which delivers all of that and excellent low light capabilities.

Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens For L Mount in More Detail

are appearing rapidly with Sigma developing a number of high quality options including this Contemporary 28-70mm zoom. Their extensive experience in designing optics over many years allows them to release competitively priced and very competent alternatives which deliver excellent results.

The portability of this lens was a primary design concern resulting in the use of lightweight but ultra strong TSC polycarbonate (Thermal Stable Composite). This ensures continued durability even in the coldest temperatures whilst remaining as strong as aluminium and makes it one of the very lightest options in its class.

Lens rings offer users a precise action with a high-quality premium feel and provide useful lens barrel control including focus mode options.

A compact 67mm filter thread makes it cost effective to add lens filters such as polarisers and UV glass. These serve to improve images under certain conditions as well as protect the front element from damage (see below for Sigma filter options).
