The Sigma 16-28mm f / 2.8 DG DN Contemporary Lens for Sony E is a compact, high-performance ultra-wide-angle zoom designed to complement a photographer's arsenal by providing a versatile range of focal lengths in a small and lightweight package, without compromising the optical quality. A fast f / 2.8 constant aperture allows for the use of faster shutter speeds in low-light scenarios, as well as being particularly useful for close-ups due to its shallow depth of field.

This lens uses a complex arrangement of specialized, low-dispersion aspherical glass elements to effectively suppress chromatic aberrations for improved clarity and color accuracy. Super multilayer and nano-porous coatings have also been applied to improve contrast and color rendering by reducing lens flare and ghosting when working in bright lighting conditions. The internal zoom and focus mechanism keeps the lens size 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 tool for videography, travel and landscape photography.

The constant maximum aperture of f / 2.8 is suitable for working in the available lighting conditions.
Two large diameter aspherical elements control spherical aberrations and distortion for greater sharpness and accurate rendering.
The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasant bokeh quality.
The 72mm front filter thread allows the use of common screw filters instead of specialized configurations.
A stepping AF motor benefits photographers and videographers alike with its fast, precise and near-silent performance. Full-time manual focus control can also be selected.
Weatherproof construction with a brass bayonet which offers improved mounting accuracy and rigidity.
