Sigma 24 70mm f 2 8 dg dn art vs samyang af 24 70mm f 2 8 fe?

Both are 24-70mm f/2.8 zooms for full frame, with autofocus and no stabilisation, so the choice mostly comes down to mount. The Sigma fits both Sony E and L-Mount, so it's the safer pick if you might switch systems. The Samyang is Sony E only, so it only makes sense if you're already on Sony.

The Sigma shown here is the first version. The Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 DG DN II Art replaced it in 2024, so check that page before you buy. Both hold f/2.8 across the whole zoom, so neither gets darker as you zoom in. For the full Samyang details, see the Samyang AF 24-70mm f/2.8 FE page.
