World’s first f/1.8 AF FF zoom: First leak image of the new Sigma 28-45mm f/1.8 lens

Share

On June Sigma will announce the world’s first Full Frame Autofocus zoom lens veer made. It’s the Sigma 28-45mm f/1.8 DG DN ART. I don’t know the pricing of the lens but I got a first image and also the info about the weight: Just barely under 1kg. Filter size is 82mm.
This is a sort of Full Frame version of the epic 18-35mm f/1.8 APS-C lens that in FF terms was a 27-54mm f/2.75 lens. The new FF lens will be shorter at the tele end but also be truly much faster. What do you think about this lens?

Curiosity: Sony has invested about 1.5 trillion yen in the sensor business over the past six years in

Share

During their briefing for the fiscal year 2024 results announcement Sony stated they invested about 1.5 trillion yen in the sensor business over the past six years in.

One more thing Sony stated:

Sony places great importance on is the “authenticity” of images. Yoshida says that it is very important for photographers and creators to capture the real world as it is. Is what is photographed with a camera really the real subject? CMOS image sensors are used to verify the authenticity of such images.
