The two large-diameter aspherical lens elements and five ideally arranged FLD glass elements effectively suppress lateral and vertical chromatic aberrations. The F 2.8 constant aperture provides a shallow depth-of-field, creating beautifully blurred out-of-focus areas. The SIGMA 16-28mm lens also features a Super Multi-Layer Coating to counter ghosting and lens flare, ensuring high contrast results even in challenging backlit conditions. The lens's autofocus is both fast and silent, thanks to a stepping motor controlling the AF actuator, making it ideal for shooting in quiet environments. The lens is constructed using Thermally Stable Composite (TSC), a polycarbonate with a thermal contraction rate similar to aluminum.
This ensures peak performance even in environments with significant temperature differences. The precision of each component and the overall aesthetic appeal of the finished product are testament to SIGMA's unparalleled manufacturing technology and rigorous quality control. In summary, the SIGMA 16-28mm F 2.8 DG DN | Contemporary Lens for L Mount, bundled with Hoya 77mm UV and CPL Filters, is a sophisticated, versatile photographic tool that offers the perfect blend of portability and performance.
