Description and Reviews

Key Take-Aways:

The Sigma 28-105mm f/2.8 DG DN Art is a full-frame standard zoom that extends into medium telephoto while maintaining a constant f/2.8 aperture, weighing just under 1kg. Professional reviews highlight its versatility, sharpness, and strong autofocus performance across the range, while noting drawbacks such as noticeable vignetting at wide apertures, a large 82mm filter size, and bulk compared to shorter standard zooms. As of Sep 14 2025, user sentiment in forums and review sites is broadly positive, with photographers praising it as a flexible single-lens solution for events and travel, though some feel the extra reach comes at the cost of portability.

From Sigma:

BEYOND STANDARD

Harness the power of this versatile and portable F2.8 optic with an extended 28-105mm focal range – a standard zoom that goes well beyond standard.

The Sigma 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN | Art is not just another standard zoom lens. With a powerful wide-angle to medium telephoto focal length and a bright F2.8 aperture throughout, this full-frame mirrorless zoom combines outstanding optical performance, superb build quality and a range of pro-grade features to make it one of the most versatile optics on the market for mirrorless systems.

The lens is built to tackle a huge range of subjects and situations, from expansive low-light landscapes to portraits with big, beautiful bokeh, and thanks to Sigma’s latest optical technology and the use of large diameter elements including FLD, SLD and five aspherical elements, it is able to do so with superb clarity and sharpness. This allows the lens to deliver exceptional versatility without compromising on optical quality. The lens also includes high-speed AF with HLA technology, a rugged dust- and splash-resistant structure, and various functions such as an aperture ring, all packed into a compact and lightweight body weighing less than 1kg, making it an exceptional all-round choice for both stills and video.
