24-70mm F2.8 DGDN II for Sony E

Versatile, fast, fun, easy to understand and use. Sigma has done an amazing job with this lens. Expensive, but after taking even the most basic photos, I am extremely happy and feel it's worth every cent. The video quality is also next level. Macro focus is so close you can take a photo in extreme detail within half an inch of the lens. Incredible, lightweight, and stunning every time.

Awesome Lens, super sharp and clear! I've had many sigma lenses and they are alway top notch for a lower price compared to name brand lenses. I'd highly recommend this if your wanting a 24-70 lens!!!

This lens is EXCELLENT. From the autofocus to the image quality. It gets a little heavy on long wedding days but if you’re not carrying your camera constantly it’s decently light. The colors straight out of camera paired with my Sony a7iv is amazing

Love using it! Great quality output

Great! product, best image quality & recommend

amazing lens. a little on the heavy side but extremely versatile and can be a run and gun lens

While I love primes, you can't beat the flexibility of a zoom lens for general photography. I wanted a lens that was tack sharp and had a constant aperture through the zoom range. The Sony lens in this range are a lot more expensive, but I've had good luck with Sigma lenses, so I chose the cheaper option.The first thing you notice about the Sigma is that the zoom ring rotates counterclockwise to zoom in, whereas most other brands rotate clockwise to zoom. It’s like driving in England or Japan compared to the US or Europe. You can adjust except when you have to make a really quick decision, and you turn the wrong way. The other thing you notice is that it is a hefty lens that feels very solid. I shot it for three hours at a race, and it never felt like it was too heavy.I did a “scientific” test comparing the Sigma with other lenses in my kit bag at matching focal lengths and at f/2.8 or as close as I could get. I shot a book cover using a tripod and a remote trigger. I lined things up by eye, so the book was not going to be perfectly parallel to the front of the lens. I shot inside using available light and adjusted shutter speed to keep the ISO at 100. While the primes were slightly sharper, especially in the corners, you had to pixel peep to see much difference. For normal shooting, this lens is sharp through the zoom range.I used the Sigma to shoot the Canal Corridor 100 mile endurance race at the 60-mile mark aid station. It performed very well. Previously, I’ve shot the Burning River 100 mile endurance run using the Sony A99ii and Sony 70-400mm zoom. Because of the long zoom, I found most of my shots were taken with the runners further away. With the 24-70, I was waiting until the runner filled the frame more, and I got more intimate shots. I rarely missed focus, and the shots were all sharp. The backgrounds blurred nicely. The zoom range let me get wide angle shots to capture the support crew and spectators. Overall, the lens proved to be an excellent choice.Highly recommended for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras. I haven't tried it on my APS-C camera yet, but it should be good on that.

I’ve been engaged with photography for years, but I still consider myself a novice. I went from the a7iv Sony kit lens to the sigma, and absolutely did not realize what a world of a difference putting in moremoney into a quality lens for an expensive body would make. (Yes, I’m a true novice in many sense.) The quality of the camera just blows my mind and the bokeh is great. The weight of the camera is a bit heavier than expected, but for its quality, I’llTake it! This is a good value for the buck!
