Field of view equivalent to 28.8-80 not 24-70 I’m afraid. Shame it doesn’t go wider. It’s a decent lens, though and means I can use the R7 as a smaller walk around option, as well as with long telephotos.

Hey will this work on a c70??? Super 35 image sensor?

[@zegzbrutal]

Yes

You mean for “RF-S”. You don’t need to clickbait, we get it. We’re still crying in the shadows for REAL RF lenses. 😭 (This one is nice tho…)

I mean if you want to get hyper-technically-correct, there is no "RF-S" mount, only RF-S _lenses_. The mount is just "RF" regardless of whether you have a full frame or crop sensor. This is different from EF and EF-S which were in fact two different mounts. EF-S mount could mount EF glass, but not vice versa. RF mount on the other hand can mount both RF and RF-S glass, regardless of sensor size. On full-frame bodies, mounting an RF-S lens will automatically make the camera switch into crop mode to avoid capturing the vignette due to the crop-format image circle. This Sigma DC DN is a crop-format lens with an RF mount, so full-frame bodies would switch into crop mode the same as for RF-S lenses. Technically though it's not an RF-S lens because that is a Canon format designation, and it doesn't have an RF-S mount because there is no such thing.
The spirit of your point remains though: it is a crop format lens. We are all looking forward to Sigma potentially releasing full-frame DG DN lenses for RF mount in the future.
