what is the difference with or without the dg and df?

raf02 · 03-24-2011, 11:43 AM

Taken from the Sigma website:

DF (Dual Focus) System

The DF (Dual Focus) system disengages the linkage between the internal focusing mechanism and outer focusing ring when the focusing ring is moved to the AF position. This system provides easy and precise handling of the lens, since the focusing ring does not rotate during autofocusing. The wide focusing ring also enables easy and accurate manual focusing.

DG (DG Lens)
These are large-aperture lenses with wide angles and short minimum focusing distances. With an abundance of peripheral illumination, they are ideal lenses for Digital SLR Cameras whilst retaining suitability for traditional 35mm SLRs.

28-70/2.8 EX DG is the very latest version of that lens (before Sigma discontinued 28-70 line altogether)... DG is supposed to have a better coating ("optimized for digital")
