Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN Art Review

 

Extra zoom power for portraiture ; Fast, accurate autofocus ; Focuses close for 1:3 macros ; Dust, splash, and fluorine protection ; Plenty of on-lens controls

Heavier than a standard 24-70mm zoom ; Bokeh shows false texture and hard edges

The Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN Art doesn't go as wide as lighter alternatives, but its background-blurring optical formula and mid-telephoto reach make it a standout lens for event coverage.

Sigma 105mm F2.8 DG DN Macro Art Review

 

High-resolution optics ; 1:1 macro reproduction ; Quick autofocus ; Dust, splash, and fluorine protection ; Focus limiter and aperture lock ; Available for E and L-mount cameras

Reliant on in-camera stabilization ; Focus breathing limits video use

The Sigma 105mm F2.8 DG DN Macro Art offers everything you want in a macro lens, including near-perfect optics, 1:1 reproduction, and a professional fit and finish.

Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN Art review: a not so standard zoom lens

 

Designed for Sony E and L-mount full-frame cameras, the Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN Art takes f/2.8 standard zooms further into telephoto territory.

You want a ‘standard zoom’ that stretches to a more generous telephoto length than most examples of the breed. ; You like a zoom lens that has a fast and constant f/2.8 aperture, as well as extras like an aperture ring and customizable function...

Sigma AF 105mm f/2.8 EX Macro Lens

 

At very high magnification, depth of field is extremely shallow even at small apertures, a fact of life with any lens.
