It covers the same range as most APS-C kit zooms, roughly 27-75mm in full-frame terms, and it does it at a constant f/2.8. That&rsquo;s up to two stops more light than a typical f/3.5-5.6 kit zoom at the long end, in a lens that weighs only about 290 grams.</p> <p>Sigma launched it in 2021 for Sony E-mount and L-Mount. Fujifilm X-mount followed in 2023, and Canon RF-mount in 2024 when Canon opened its APS-C mount to Sigma. That makes it one of the few lenses you can buy for nearly every APS-C system covered on this site.</p> https://photovideogear.com/sigma-24-70mm-f2.8-dg-dn-ii-art-review-linear-motors-and-an-aperture-ring-close-the-gap-to-g-master/ Fri, 09 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 https://photovideogear.com/sigma-24-70mm-f2.8-dg-dn-ii-art-review-linear-motors-and-an-aperture-ring-close-the-gap-to-g-master/ <p>Sigma&rsquo;s first mirrorless 24-70mm f/2.8 Art, from 2019, was sharp and good value, but its autofocus lagged behind Sony&rsquo;s own G Master. The Sigma 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II Art, announced in May 2024 at $1,199, fixes that. New HLA linear motors make autofocus more than three times faster, Sigma says, and the lens gains an aperture ring and better close focus.</p> <p>It&rsquo;s available for Sony E-mount and L-Mount, the system Sigma shares with Panasonic and Leica.</p>
