Overview
The Sigma 28-105mm T3 Cine Zoom Lens with AF (L-Mount, Feet) is a full-frame cine zoom built for filmmakers who want the flexibility of a broad focal range together with selectable autofocus performance. Based on Sigma's popular DG DN Art optical design, it combines strong image quality, cinema-style handling, and modern production versatility for narrative, documentary, gimbal, and handheld shooting.
Covering a practical 28 to 105mm range with a constant T3 maximum aperture, this lens is designed to move smoothly between wide, normal, and short telephoto framing. Its autofocus capability, cine-standard gearing, rounded 12-blade iris, and professional mechanical design make it a strong choice for contemporary hybrid cinema workflows.

Autofocus for Modern Cine Workflows
Unlike traditional manual-only cine lenses, this model adds autofocus capability for productions that demand faster subject tracking and greater operating flexibility. It is especially useful for action sequences, documentary capture, gimbal operation, and other situations where maintaining manual focus can be more challenging.
Advanced Optical Design
Using the optical system of Sigma's DG DN Art still lens, this cine zoom is designed to deliver strong sharpness, attractive bokeh, and controlled flare and ghosting across the zoom range. The result is a clean, polished image suitable for high-end production work.
Professional Mechanical Construction
The lens adds cinema-focused mechanics to Sigma's proven Art-series rendering and reliability. Standard 0.8 MOD gears, damped control rings, and reduced metallic noise at the ends of travel help support smoother operation for assistants and operators working in professional environments.
