You'll experience a new level of photographic excellence with the SIGMA 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Leica L. Designed exclusively for mirrorless cameras, this lens is compatible with full-frame cameras, offering a smart and nimble solution for your photography needs. This lens redefines the standard zoom for mirrorless cameras, combining outstanding optical performance with a constant F2.8 aperture in a lightweight and compact body. Its design is based on SIGMA's renowned Art line, ensuring the same uncompromising optical performance in a significantly smaller and lighter package. The SIGMA 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens is the smallest and lightest in its class, making it ideal for day-to-day use. It maintains an optimal balance between optical performance and lens size, delivering professional-quality results in a body small enough for a casual outing. The lens features an advanced optical design that includes three aspherical, two FLD, and two SLD elements. This design ensures thorough correction of axial chromatic aberration and sagittal coma aberration, allowing you to create images that are uniformly sharp from the center to the edges of the frame. The lens also features a water and oil repellant coating on the front side, making it well-equipped for use in a wide range of shooting environments. Its anti-ghosting design, combined with the use of Super Multi-Layer Coating and Nano Porous Coating, ensures well-controlled flare for high-contrast results in backlit conditions. The SIGMA 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens offers a more compact alternative to the existing 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN Art, providing two optimal solutions for standard F2.8 zoom lenses for mirrorless cameras. The lens also features a quiet and fast stepping motor, ensuring responsive and near-silent autofocus performance. Its lightweight body, weighing in at just 470g, makes it an ideal choice for filmmakers looking for a high-performance, lightweight, easy-to-handle camera system that works well with a gimbal and other accessories. Constructed primarily of lightweight parts, the body of the SIGMA 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens ensures optimal portability without compromising on build quality. The use of Thermally Stable Composite (TSC), a type of polycarbonate with a comparable level of thermal shrinkage to aluminum, ensures stable performance even in environments with extreme temperature changes. Experience the exceptional user experience and superb build quality of the SIGMA 28-70mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Leica L. Its premium, intuitive build inspires you to achieve your creative potential, opening up new photographic possibilities for better and more creative results.

So this lens pretty much does it all and is my go to lens for my everyday photography.  Mostly moto inspired shoots with my bike but can cover everything in between.  Highly recommend.

Solid lens that stays on my camera.

good quality lens

First camera, first lens, great purchase!

Sigma all in one zoom lens

Being used to Leica lenses that are metallic and beautifully made, when I received my sigma, i first found it light, plastic, poorly made and cheap looking. But after several tests, I found the glass quite good with nice colors and sharpness. It sure gives more interesting result on full frame Leica SL2 than the Leica T lenses that are for discontinued Leica apps-c cameras. It looks cheap and is cheap, but the lens is good for the price.

Sigma lens vs Leica lens

Came as described. This lens is absolutely amazing! Shooting S-log with this lens is a win.

Amazing quality

Excellent product for a fair price considering the extras that are included. Product is of great quality and has worked as advertised since my purchase.

Great first experience with Adorama

Great lens.  I have both the 24-70 Art and this 28-70 Contemporary.  The biggest difference is weight. The quality difference is there, but in most cases it's not noticeable enough to set one too far apart from the other. The lighter 28-70, however, balances better on a gimbal. So if you are heavy on video, this is the better option. That being said, you do need to be mindful the lens has vignette issues at the lower 2.8 F stop. If you aren't careful you might have to crop where you wished you hadn't. Still a highly recommended lens, just know what you're buying.

Great lens at a good price

Faster and a bit sharper than the Sony kit lens.  This is a good lens, but if you already have the kit lens, I'm not sure this is worth the money.
Great purchase though, if you don't have the kit lens.

Good lens, but not sure it's worth the money to upgrade from the kit lens.

Small, compact, effective. Excellent lense. The perfect travel buddy. I took it to Iceland in the rain, snow, and extreme cold. The lens never faltered. Quick precise auto focus. Never missed a hit, but YMMV. I godd a great copy of a wonderful lens.

Lightweight Powerhouse

loved the quality! and the price was totally reasonable

great lens for half Sony cost and comparable quality

Great zoom small price

Great lens

Lightweight, solid construction, great price!  Glad I purchased this one.

Great Purchase!!

A perfect overall lens for a Sony A7III or equivalent, the 28-70 is sharp, portable, light and feels good in hand, which tick all the boxes for an everyday carry-around or travel lens. It's great for family pics, portraits, landscapes, architecture, random snapshots and more. Weight is evenly distributed and has a good build quality (seems metallic) so it feels good in hand. The quality is what I'm looking for, as it is sharp and quick to focus, and colors come out as expected.

Great overall lens for an A7III

Solid lens, quick shipping and great customer service when I reached out before buying.

Great customer service

Size: In real life, this lens is bigger than the product photos make it look (which seemed almost unbelievably tiny), but it's still smaller and lighter than my existing crop-frame zoom. It's large enough that I might find myself bringing the Sigma fp's kit lens (a 45mm prime) instead of taking the zoom when I want something more than a cell phone camera but am not planning to do any serious photography; but small and versatile enough to be the lens I travel with if I want an all-rounder and _do_ expect to be using the camera.

Feel: Mechanics feel great, inclusive of the zoom mechanism.

Image quality: Not a single complaint. (A note about the range: The wide end isn't all that wide, but insofar as it's full-frame so one can crop down, this goes further than one might expect into the tele end).

Does what it says on the tin (which is itself impressive)

This is a fantastic lens, though a bit bulky.  This was also the first test of my new Sony AR7 II.  The image has incredible detail.

Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 DG DN lens

I received Sigma 28-70mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E-Mount Cameras within 4 days after ordering. The quality of the lens is great, cannot wait to take it with me in the following trips!

Great delivery speed and product quality

My main goal with this lens was to find a small zoom lens that I could balance on a Ronin SC as a run and gun wedding setup.  It is absolutely perfect in this use, quality is good, focus is fast and silent.  I've even began using it as a EDC photo lens.

Small zoom lens

Beat expectations -- shockingly compact for a 2.8 zoom. Highly recommended.

Excellent Compact Zoom Beat Expectations

I tried this lens thinking it might replace my Sony 24-105 G at lower weight plus sharing 67mm filters with others lenses in my kit (including the wonderful Tamron 2.8/70-180 with which it's focal length range dovetails). It failed.

After confirming my sample was properly centered, I used a high contrast target to test central sharpness.

Results:  
    -At f/2.8 central sharpness was mediocre at all focal lengths.
    -At f/4 central sharpness is inferior to that of the Sony at all focal lengths.    
    -At 35mm central sharpness does not catch up to the Sony until f/5.6.
    -At 70mm central sharpness was mediocre at all apertures.

Since the Sigma was unsatisfactory in central sharpness I rejected it without testing mid zones and corners.  I'll keep my Sony 4/24-105 with its superior optics, weather sealing, and zoom range, despite the slightly greater size and weight.

Too disappointing optically.

adorama was the only site that had this lens for order in march and it came fast and on time! Really great lens! it's really light and compact so makes it great for everyday use! you do lose 4mm on the wide end but if weight is your main concern this is a great pick and for a great price as well! highly recommend

Small and portable

I?m new to this video and photography scene, but I think I made the right choice with this as my first lens. I borrowed a friends 24-70mm sigma lens and liked it, but this 28-70mm came out just as I was about to buy one for myself. Although it may not go as wide as the 24-70mm, it is lighter and smaller in size, not to mention less in price, and does the job for me! I use this with my Sony a7s iii

Great Lens!!!

Great standard zoom lens. Versatile and can be used for many different types of photography. Love the small size and light weight for a 2.8 zoom. No complaints so far.

Awesome compact zoom

I have only used it once in a shoot and I can already tell that this lens does its job exceptionally well!

4 stars because ultimately would like the zoom feature to be within the camera body similar to the 18-105 Sony.

It may not be a fair comparison, but it would still be nice
