OVERVIEW
The new 16-28mm F2.8 DG DN | Contemporary is designed to achieve optimal balance for a wide-angle zoom lens. An expressive ultra-wide angle of view, incredibly sharp optics, bright constant aperture, and robust yet lightweight construction all come together in one easy-to-use package.
To efficiently suppress chromatic aberrations for increased clarity and color accuracy, this lens utilizes a complex combination of specialized aspherical and low dispersion glass elements. When working in bright lighting situations, Super Multi-Layer and Nano Porous Coatings have also been used to increase contrast and color rendering by eliminating lens flare and ghosting. Throughout the zoom range and at all focus distances, the inner zoom & focus mechanism maintains the proportions of the lens. The fixed front element and almost no balance point shift make it a perfect instrument for videography, travel, and landscape photography.
Available for L-Mount and Sony E-mount systems, this full-frame, mirrorless zoom lens is equallysuitable for both still photography and video use. With inner zoom and focusing mechanisms, a high-speed stepping motor, and a convenient front filter thread, this lens offers premium imagery and video quality in a compact, balanced body, ideal for use on a gimbal.
