SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art Sony FE
The SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art is a true classic in a completely new guise. With both a wide-angle and short telephoto zoom range, this lens is ideal for capturing landscapes, portraits, and your travels. The constant aperture of f/2.8 means you can use the lens effortlessly in low-light conditions, making it equally suited for reportage and event photography. It's a true all-rounder!
The SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II is extremely compact and fast, delivering outstanding optical performance. The 24-70mm f/2.8 features an extensive range of updated functions and advanced technologies to help you get the very best from your photography. The High-Response Linear Actuator (HLA) makes the lens three times faster at focusing compared to its predecessor. The autofocus is not only fast, but also exceptionally accurate and quiet — making the lens ideal for videography with minimal focus breathing.
With the addition of an aperture ring and two AFL buttons, the functionality has been greatly enhanced. You can assign functions to the AFL buttons yourself, allowing you to configure the lens exactly as you like. An AFL button has been deliberately placed on the top so you can operate it easily in portrait orientation. The lens is also perfect for close-up photography. With a minimum focusing distance of just 17 centimetres and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7, even the smallest details can be captured in impressive scale.
The SIGMA 24-70mm is a true flagship lens and lives up to its name through its optical performance. The lens features both nano and super multi-layer coatings, and consists of 6 FLD, 2 SLD, and 5 aspherical glass elements. These effectively reduce various aberrations, ghosting, lens flare, and sagittal coma flare. In all conceivable lighting situations — including extreme backlight — you're guaranteed high-contrast images free from colour cast.
Its compact size and robust construction mean you can take the lens anywhere. Weighing just 745 grams, it is no less than 10% lighter than its predecessor. The housing is primarily made from plastic and boasts excellent build quality. In addition, the lens is dust- and splash-resistant, so you can rely on the SIGMA 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II even in demanding weather conditions.
