The other Sigma from today is the more useful one if you still have a kit zoom on the camera. The 20-60mm F2.8-4 DG | Contemporary is a palm-sized full-frame standard zoom for Sony E-mount and L-Mount: $849, 385g (L-Mount) / 375g (Sony E), in US stores from October 6, 2026. Pre-order at B&H Photo Video.

The headline is the wide end. Most “walk-around” zooms start at 24mm or 28mm. This one starts at 20mm and F2.8, then eases to F4 by 60mm. DPReview’s take is the same one Sigma wants: if you bought a body with a slow kit lens, this is the first serious replacement that does not drag a 24-70mm f/2.8 around.
