Sigma CEO Kazuto Yamaki confirms in video interview they have a Sony FE lens roadmap

Share

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

Few more tidbits:

  • They will consider making APS-C E-mount kit zoom
  • They are considering making macro E-mount lenses too

As a side note watch the full video! He is funny and very honest when he takes about why he is keeping the DP Camera business. I have my highest respect for Mr. Kazuto Yamaki!

Sony Planar T* FE 50mm f/1.4 ZA Lens my first pics of my friend Liuthier (SonyAlphaForum).

Lensvid: “We just published another interesting video from Photokina – this time it is a quick demo of the Techart PRO AF adapter:
https://lensvid.com/gear/lensvid-exclusive-techart-pro-adaptor-demo-turn-any-mf-lens-into-an-af-lens/
You probably reported this early this year but they claim that with an extra adapter you can adapt basically any MF lens (Canon/Nikon etc.) to be an AF on a Sony body. B.T.W. in the article I mentioned what Leica thinks about this :)
P.S. the strange focus issue in the start of the video – the A6300 + Sigma 30mm f/1.4 miss focus – annoying (I really hope Sony will come up with a new version – the lack of IBIS on this camera drove us crazy during the show as well as the low battery and super annoying menus and buttons).”
