Honestly, I am a portrait shooter, mostly fashion work. I rely on my 70-200 (still a little sour this lens is out ahead of it). However, it is pretty well obligatory I own something in this range. Having already bought the ART and not really worried about size and weight, I won't be spending the money. This may not matter to some, but having been a nikon shooter through the 17-35, 35-70 and 80-200 days, I perfer continous flow in my ranges as I am aware what can happen when mm are missing for that perfect shot. So I would have gone 24-70 anyway because there is a 12-24, 24-70 and hopefully SOON a 70-200. It is clear why the 28-70 was designed, but at this point in time the 70-200 would have made more sense. Finish the trinity, it would have been in a great competitive position with sony's being 4 years old and Tamron only going to 180.

Thanks for sharing - really interesting. I couldn't agree with you more - releasing a 70-200mm would have been the more popular choice at this point. Very excited for that release (when it does eventually come) and I don't even use zooms that often! 😂

I picked up the new sigma 28 to 70 and I am using it on my Sony a7riv. I am really surprised on how light it is. I don’t shoot much wide shots that need 28 mm but when I do this is really going to help. I was thinking about getting the 24 to 70 by sigma and for how light this lens is i’m enjoying it. I’m so used to big heavy lenses like my 135 gm, and my sigma 105 mm F1.4 this is like night and day comparison. But it is a fast sharp lens and I’ve been trying it out with a little bit a video and it is completely silent. I’m having fun with it and I’m glad I decided to go with a nice light lens

Other the 24 vs 28mm. Seems like they took weather sealing out of new lens and change materials to make it lighter. And this is it.

How do think about the video quality compare with the sony 28-60mm bundle lens?
@TomCalton2 жыл бұрын
I've never tested them head to head, so I couldn't say unfortunately. However, kit lenses are notorious for being cheap and average quality, so my gut would say that this would be a step up for you. How much of a step up, I couldn't say for certain.

@TomCalton3 жыл бұрын
Honestly - no idea! Best thing to do is go on to ebay and see what the going rate is. Unless the weight of the 24-70mm is really bugging you, I'd stick with what you've got. It's still a great lens and has better weather sealing than the 28-70mm.

its not a "NEW" vs "old" lens - the 28-70 isn't meant to replace the 24-70. The 28-70 is a contemporary lens (budget option), where as the 24-70 is an art series lens (highest quality sigma optics). With that being said, the distortion on some of these new sigma lenses is Annoying as EFF.
