The new Sigma 16-28mm F2.8 DG DN contemporary is a fast compact full-frame zoom lens that is great for both Sigma still and video.
It is available for Sony e-mount and L-mount systems. It has an internal zoom and focusing mechanism, a high-speed stepping motor and a convenient front filter thread.
The internal zoom mechanism allows the lens to maintain the same length across the entire zoom range with almost no shift at the point of equilibrium. With a compact, balanced body it would be a good pair to use on a gimbal.
