Tell Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki what FE lens they should release first!

sigma

As you know Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki confirmed they are working on a new range of Sigma FF E-mount lenses. I have to say I have my highest respect for CEO Kazuto Yamaki and I thought it would be kind from SAR readers to just give them a little help by sharing our special wish list.

Based on Sigmas current FF lens lineup I made a list of possible FE lenses. Note that this would be newly redesigned lenses and not just a copy of current DSLR lenses with E-mount. Also think twice before you choose a lens: Be aware that “cool” lenses will cost!

Choose the three FE lenses Sigma should make as first:

Reminder: Lensvid interviewed Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki. At minute 3.45 you can hear him confirm that they “have a plan to do FE lenses”.
