If you thought that the announcement of the long-awaited Sony A7 III camera was exciting, you’ll be tickled to find out that Sigma has launched nine full-frame lenses for the E-mount. Whereas the 70mm f/2.8 and 105mm f/1.4 are brand new, the remaining seven are based on existing ART lenses for Canon and Nikon.
The full list of lenses is as follows:
- Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM
- Sigma 20mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 24mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 70mm f/2.8DG MACRO
- Sigma 85mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM
- Sigma 135mm f/1.8 DG HSM
Sigma promises that the ART lenses will offer the same optical performance as other lenses in the ART line, while featuring a newly developed control algorithm that optimises the AF drive and maximises data transmission speed. They will be compatible with Sony’s high-speed AF system, in-body stabilisation, and in-camera lens aberration correction.
The 70mm and 105mm will both be on display at CP+ 2018 but the official launch date has yet to be announced. You can find out more about the new line-up by visiting the official Sigma website.
