The Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E is a compact full-frame standard zoom with a constant F2.8 aperture. At launch in 2021 Sigma described it as the smallest and lightest lens in its class, and at 470g it keeps an a7 IV, a7C II or a7R V easy to carry for travel, events, portraits and everyday shooting.

Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E, optical design

Optical design

The design is derived from Sigma's 24-70mm F2.8 Art with a slightly shorter range. There are 16 elements in 12 groups, including two FLD, two SLD and three aspherical elements.
Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E, light and compact

Light and compact

The barrel uses Sigma's Thermally Stable Composite, and it takes small 67mm filters. It is roughly half the weight of a typical 24-70mm F2.8.
Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E, close focus

Close focus

It focuses down to 19cm at 28mm, for a maximum magnification of 1:3.3.
Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E, autofocus

Autofocus

A stepping motor moves a single light focus element, so focusing is quick and quiet for stills and video.
Sigma 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary for Sony E, who it's for

Who it's for

This is for photographers who want F2.8 in a standard zoom without the weight. The Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II adds a wider 24mm end and more professional features, and the Sigma 16-28mm F2.8 DG DN completes a light two-lens kit.

Also available for L-Mount.
