When Sony and Sigma released lenses with nearly identical specifications (or at least nearly identical target customers), photographic gear scheduling marked a rare alignment. Photographically speaking, the concurrent launch of these two similar lenses is the equivalent of a full solar eclipse—incredibly rare and also amazing to see.
Sigma has shared a digital cross-section of its upcoming upcoming 16-28mm f/2.8 lens that showcases the intricate internal focusing system in action.
Sigma has announced the 16-28mm f/2.8 DG DN, a wide-angle zoom lens designed for Sony E-Mount and Leica L-Mount and can be used on full-frame cameras.
Sigma has announced the 20mm f/2 DG DN lens, its seventh and widest optic in the all-metal I Series of compact primes. The lens will be available for both Sony E-Mount and Leica L-Mount.
With Sigma's latest release, the company is going back to basics to deliver a standard wide-to-telephoto zoom lens for Sony E-mount and Leica L-mount crop-sensor cameras. Does it have any flash or is it nothing more than a simple kit lens?
Sigma has announced the 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary lens which it bills as the smallest and lightest f/2.8 zoom lens for APS-C format mirrorless cameras on the market.
Sigma has expanded its series of primes categorized under its I-series line with the 90mm f/2.8 DG DN and the 24mm f/2 DG DN lenses. Both will be available in Sony E-mount and Leica L-mount.
Sigma has announced the 150-600mm f/5-6.3 DG DN OS Sport lens for Sony E-mount and Leica L-mount. It is the company's first ultra-telephoto zoom lens that Sigma says has been developed from the ground up specifically for full-frame mirrorless cameras.
How does the legendarily heavy-duty Sigma 200-500mm f/2.8 EX DG lens translate to use for portraits today? What about when combined with teleconverters on a Sony Alpha 7 Mark III?
When taking a look at Sigma's newest zoom in its Contemporary lineup, one can't help but draw comparisons to the myriad of other standard-range zoom lenses available. Let's be honest -- it doesn't break any new ground.
Sigma has announced the 35mm f/1.4 DG DN Art lens for E-Mount and L-Mount. The company says that the original 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM that was announced in 2012 -- the first of all the Art lenses that set the standard for the line -- has been redesigned from the ground up specifically for mirrorless cameras.
Update 11/25/2020: Images have leaked that indicate the December 1 Livestream will include three lenses, not just one.
It seems that fans of Sony's full-frame mirrorless cameras have a lot to look forward to this month. In addition to recent rumors that Sony is planning to launch two new cameras and a 35mm f/1.8 FE lens "in the next one to two months," a new report claims that Sigma will be releasing four new lenses designed specifically for the Sony FE mount.
Start saving up now, because the brightest and baddest new 135mm lens on the market has a price and a release date. Sigma is still keeping price and availability a secret for their 24-70mm 14mm ART lenses, but they've officially announced that the 135mm f/1.8 will debut in May for $1,400.
When Sigma calls their new Contemporary 100-400mm f/5-6.3 DG OS HSM a "light bazooka," we're not sure which definition of "light" they're using. But given the lens' f/5 max aperture and ultra-light construction, we're going to guess they mean light as in lightweight.
They're official! Arriving right on time, given this weekend's massive photo leak, Sigma has revealed their newest trio of full-frame Art lenses for Canon, Nikon, and Sigma bodies: the long-awaited 24-70mm f/2.8, the 14mm f/1.8, and the 135mm f/1.8.
To call Sigma's Art series of lenses a "hit" would be quite the understatement. Sigma's premium lens line has taken the photo world by storm, often giving photographers significantly better lenses for a lot less money. And now, it sounds like two more Art lenses are on the way.
The fall colors here in Ohio are at their peak right now, and for most photographers that means it's time for wide angle photography. Sigma just so happened to send us their new 12-24mm f/4 Art to try out—what great timing.
Sigma today unveiled three new lenses that will have many a photographer fumbling with their wallets and checking their bank balance. We're talking about the 85mm f/1.4 Art, 12-24mm f/4 Art, and 500mm f/4 Sports lenses.
It's a good year for glass at CES in Vegas. First Samsung debuts its first premium 'S' lens, then Fuji comes out with the 56mm f/1.2R, and now Sigma is joining the fray by releasing two new lenses: an all-new 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art series lens and a significantly updated 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DC OS HSM Macro lens.
Sigma is on a tear when it comes to releasing amazing glass. From the groundbreaking 18-35mm f/1.8 for APS-C cameras to the 24-105mm f/4 that had people pretty excited, Sigma glass is quickly becoming synonymous with phenomenal quality and affordability.
And now, the newest murmurings to come down the rumor pipeline have another exciting Sigma lens in the works, this one a 16-20mm f/2.
When Sigma announced a new version of the much loved 120-300 f/2.8 I immediately kicked myself for buying a much pricier 300mm Nikon about 6 months earlier. The reasons why may not be readily apparent, but we'll get to that. First let's discuss the aesthetics and specs.
We've mentioned Sigma's upcoming revolutionary USB dock before, but until today we had no idea when the product would become a reality or how much it would cost. Thankfully, Sigma has cleared that up for us, and thrown in a demo video to boot.
There’s some shady business going on at CES 2012 in Vegas. Sigma has announced that one of the lenses …
