New Sigma 50mm f/1.4 ART lens gets a price in Australia ($1,499)

The Australian CameraPro is the first worldwide store that gives us a clue about the price of the new Sigma 50mm f/1,4 ART lens. The lens is priced at $1,499 AUSD. USing the current conversion this is about 1000 Euro or $1350. Of course prices in US are expected to be much lower. That’s quite a good price considered that Sigma aimed to match the quality of the 4 times more expensive Zeiss Otus lens! Now let’s hope reviews will come out soon to tell us if Sigma really achieved fulfilled the task.
