Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art (Sony E)
The 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art is Sigma's pro standard zoom for Sony E, delivering OEM-class optics without the OEM price and earning a strong 78. At 735g with an 82mm thread, it's the workhorse pick for event, wedding, and general full-frame work where one versatile lens does most of the job. The only real caveat is weight, so minimum-weight travel kits may want something lighter.
