Enhance Your Photography Arsenal with the Sigma 16-28mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens

The Sigma 16-28mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens is a compact and high-performance ultrawide zoom designed to complement a photographer's toolkit. It offers a versatile range of focal lengths in a small and lightweight package without compromising on optical quality. With its fast f/2.8 constant aperture, this lens enables the use of faster shutter speeds in low-light scenarios and is particularly useful for close-up shots due to its shallow depth of field.

This lens utilizes a complex arrangement of specialized aspherical and low dispersion glass elements to effectively suppress chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and colour accuracy. Super Multi-Layer and Nano Porous Coatings have also been applied to improve contrast and colour rendering by reducing lens flare and ghosting when working in strong lighting conditions. The inner zoom & focus mechanism keeps the dimensions of the lens constant throughout the zoom range and at all focus distances. This design feature allows for almost no balance point shift and a fixed front element, making it an ideal instrument for videography, travel, and landscape photography.

  • Constant f/2.8 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in available lighting conditions.
  • Two large-diameter aspherical elements control spherical aberrations and distortion for increased sharpness and accurate rendering.
  • Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
  • 72mm front filter thread allows for the use of common screw-in filters instead of specialized setups.
  • A stepping AF motor benefits both photographers and videographers with its fast, precise, and near-silent performance. Full-time manual focus control can also be selected.
  • Weather-resistant construction with a brass bayonet that affords improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.
