We took it for a long walk through downtown Calgary to see if there are any trade-offs for the portability. 0:00 - Intro 1:10 - Sample images 1:39 - Size and design 2:27 - Autofocus 2:59 - Close up performance 3:32 - Flare and sunstars 4:16 - Chromatic aberrations 4:46 - Breathing 5:20 - Bokeh 5:55 - Sharpness 6:58 - L-Mount comparison 7:27 - E-Mount comparison 8:18 - The wrap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Martin Vronsky Posted June 1, 2022 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2022 Quote New from Sigma is the 16-28mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens! This ultra wide zoom is a versatile lens and perfect for landscapes, events, architecture and travel. The image quality is impressive, with edge to edge sharpness, minimal aberrations and smooth, circular bokeh. Combined with the 28-70mm f/2.8, this kit would be great for everyday use, as both lenses are compact and lightweight! 0:00 About 1:04 Specs 4:02 Final Thoughts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Martin Vronsky Posted June 1, 2022 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2022 Quote Price: $899 / £749.99. Here we see Sigma broadening yet further their excellent range of 'DG DN' lenses for full-frame mirrorless cameras, this time with a more affordable ultra-wide zoom optic that could be of serious interest to demanding photographers on a lower budget. Let's check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
