24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art
A classic, redefined.
The 24-70mm F2.8 Art has evolved at all levels: restitution performance, functionality and handling.
The SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art is SIGMA's iconic lens that has evolved significantly from the previous model by incorporating the most advanced technologies available to SIGMA, from design to production. Compared to the previous SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | Art, the SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art offers better resolving power throughout the zoom range, and also benefits from functional improvements such as the addition of an aperture ring and high-speed autofocus thanks to a redesigned AF motor, the HLA (High-response Linear Actuator). The lens is also about 7% smaller and 10% lighter. This 24-70mm F2.8 Art zoom lens is a versatile and powerful tool that will help photographers and filmmakers unleash their creativity.
Restitution performance worthy of a flagship.
The SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art is the successor to the SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | Art, known for its high optical performance, it has further increased the resolution throughout the zoom range. The lens provides great sharpness across the entire image from its maximum aperture, even on high-resolution cameras. Focusing on improving its rendering performance, the brightness of F2.8 produces a wide and beautiful bokeh effect, and allows users to experience the power of an iconic lens in all areas of visual expression. In addition to its advanced close-up capabilities and resistance to flare and incident light, the lens is designed to minimize focus breathing* when focusing, resulting in ideal images in any situation.

High optical performance across the entire image area and zoom range
The optical design of the lens includes 6 FLD glass elements, 2 SLD glass elements and 5 aspherical elements to completely suppress different aberrations throughout the zoom range. As for the sagittal coma, it was perfectly controlled in order to obtain a high and constant resolution right to the periphery of the image. By effectively correcting lateral chromatic aberration, it is possible to obtain high-resolution, beautifully rendered images without color fringing.
Incorporates 5 aspherical lenses
The use of 5 high-precision aspherical lenses achieves high optical performance with maximum aberration correction and compact optical construction. SIGMA's only manufacturing facility, the Aizu factory features ultra-high precision aspherical molding technology that produces very thin, highly polarized aspherical lenses, essential to the construction of this lens. This allowed for an increased degree of freedom in goal creation.
Excellent close-up shooting capability
The lens offers excellent close-up shooting ability, with a minimum focusing distance of 17 cm at wide angle and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:2.7. This feature is useful for composing close-up shots of a subject or for taking photos in tight spaces where it is difficult to obtain a good distance from the subject.
* Be careful that the front lens element does not hit the subject when shooting. Remove the lens hood when shooting at the minimum wide-angle focusing distance.
Designed to minimize flare and incident light
Flare and incident lights, which reduce image quality, have been largely eliminated using advanced modeling technology, allowing the lens to deliver quality, high-contrast results in all conditions. Additionally, Nano Porous Coating and Super Multilayer Coating have been applied to help suppress flare and incident light as much as possible. High backlight resistance provides clear, sharp images regardless of lighting conditions.
Focus breathing* minimal
The lens was designed to suppress Focus breathing*. The change in angle of view due to changing focus is minimized, creating a natural-looking shift in focus area when recording movies.

Improvement and enrichment of the range of functionalities
The SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art is approximately 7% smaller in size and 10% lighter than the previous model, while improving functionality through the addition of an aperture ring and two AFL buttons. Despite the reduction in size and the addition of new features, the lens retains SIGMA's excellent build quality, with the precision and robustness you would expect from professional photographic equipment.
Extremely handy lens
Although the number of optical elements used in its construction is the same as the previous model, the overall length has been reduced thanks to an advanced optical formula. In addition, the more efficient mechanical structure resulted in a very handy lens with a maximum diameter of 87.8 mm, a length of 120.2 mm and a weight of 745 g*.
*These numbers correspond to the L-Mount.
Excellent build quality
While focusing on reducing the size and weight of the lens, the use of metal parts for moving the zoom lens and other parts, together with the sturdy internal structure, ensures rigidity during use, especially when handling the zoom ring, pressing the buttons and carrying the lens. The design emphasizes the longevity and reliability of the lens as a tool, which is not possible with a compact, lightweight lens.
Equipped with a diaphragm ring
The lens is equipped with an aperture ring, an aperture ring switch and an aperture ring lock slider, which allows the aperture to be used according to different shooting situations. .
Equipped with two AFL buttons
The lens is equipped with two AFL* buttons, to which a series of functions can be assigned via the menu on some cameras, one more than on the previous model. In addition to the side button, the additional button has been positioned on the top to facilitate the use of the buttons when the device is held in a vertical position.
* Feature only available on compatible devices. Available functions may vary depending on the device used.
A host of professional features, including high-speed autofocus
In addition to high-speed AF provided by the HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor, the SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art has a comprehensive list of features, including weather resistance (dust- and splash-resistant construction* and water- and oil-repellent coating), as well as a zoom lock button. The lens delivers the best possible results in all shooting situations.
*The structure is designed to be dust and splash resistant, but not water resistant. Be careful not to put the lens in contact with a large amount of water. Water inside the lens can cause significant damage and even render the lens beyond repair.
Incorporates an HLA linear motor
The lens incorporates a HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) linear motor for AF control. The high-efficiency HLA motor makes the maximum drive speed more than three times faster than the previous model*, ensuring responsive autofocus shooting.
* Maximum drive speed comparison of SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN II | Art with that of the SIGMA 24-70mm F2.8 DG DN | Art (it is different from real time autofocus).
Dust and splash resistant construction and water and oil repellent coating
In addition to a dust- and splash-resistant structure, the front lens element features a water- and oil-repellent coating, allowing photographers to shoot with peace of mind, even in harsh conditions. harsh outdoor environments.
Equipped with zoom lock switch in wide angle position
The lens is equipped with a zoom lock switch that locks the lens in the wide-angle position and prevents the lens from unintentionally extending under its own weight. The lock can be unlocked not only by the switch, but also by operating the zoom ring, allowing smooth handling even for impromptu shots.
Comes with a corolla sunshade with lock
A corolla sunshade is provided. A locking mechanism is provided for secure attachment.
