- Is the Sigma 16-28mm F2.8 worth it over Sony's wide zooms?
- It is smaller, lighter and less expensive than Sony's fast wide zooms, and reviewers find it sharp. You give up reach, weather sealing and an aperture ring.
- Does it work on APS-C Sony cameras?
- Yes, it mounts on Sony E-mount APS-C bodies, where it behaves like a 24-42mm lens. It is designed for full frame, so it is larger than needed on APS-C.
- Does it have image stabilization?
- No. It relies on the camera's in-body stabilization, which most recent Sony full-frame bodies have.
- What filter size does it take?
- It takes 72mm filters, and because it zooms internally the front element does not rotate or extend.
- How close can it focus?
- Minimum focus distance is about 0.82 ft (0.25m), with a maximum magnification of 0.18x, useful for close foregrounds in wide shots.
- Is it sealed against dust and moisture?
- No. It has no weather sealing, so protect it in rain and dusty conditions.
