Sigma announces 35mm f/1.4 DG, 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC OS, 120-300mm f/2.8 DG OS lenses

Sounds like even SIGMA has difficulties telling the difference....
They keep doing things like this.

Hope its without the old coating.
Maybe that's the only difference.

All i can see is they are trying to rebrand it with slight improvement in terms of design, spec, and weight.

If the 35mm performs anything like my 85mm 1.4, then I for one will definitely grab this.

Could be a good pano lens for landscapes as well.

 

[cichlid]

I'm eagerly waiting for the 35mm, hope it will be affordable.

The Sigma 35mm f/1.4 DG HSM will be available in Japan from 30 November for Canon mount. Price is 123,900 yen (with tax). For comparison sake, Sigma's 85mm f/1.4 is listed as 99,015 yen while Canon's 35mm f/1.4L is 205,000 yen. Not sure how that translates to local price and when it will reach Singapore shores.

Cost more than the 85mm! Might as well get the 35L.

Sigma Singapore just had a news release of the 35mm f/1.4 on their Facebook page as well.

Sigma USA announces a street price of US$899 for the lens.
Sigma USA announces $899 price for 35mm F1.4 DG HSM prime lens: Digital Photography Review

I certainly hope the street price here in Singapore will be similar to that. This will make it half the price compared to major original brand names. It will sell very well I think if priced right.

 

[Blur Shadow]

I try to be hopeful, although recent trends suggests otherwise...

 

[Kiwira]

i'm sold with the 35

 

[ManWearPants]

That's about S$1.1-1.2k. Sigma is getting from not bad to good.

If they can bring on a FF foveon next year. IMO, they will be the next big thing.

 

[cichlid]

Is it out in SG?

 

[Kiwira]

not yet, official photo samples are out not too long ago

images have been impressive so far, taken with sd1

[Blur Shadow]
