Sigma 16 28mm f 2 8 dg dn contemporary vs tamron 16 30mm f 2 8 di iii vxd g2?

Both are f/2.8 ultra-wide zooms for full-frame cameras, neither has stabilisation, and both autofocus. The difference is mostly reach and mount.

The Tamron 16-30mm f/2.8 Di III VXD G2 goes 2mm further at the long end than the Sigma 16-28mm f/2.8 DG DN Contemporary. It also doesn't extend as it zooms, and it weighs 440 grams. It fits Sony E and Nikon Z bodies. The Sigma fits Sony E and L-Mount, so it's the one to choose if you shoot L-Mount.

If you have a Sony body, I'd lean Tamron for the extra reach. For wide landscapes, see Landscape.
