Sigma Will Not Raise Prices Despite New 5% Tariff Increase
The 300-600mm lens price increased from $6,000 to $6,600 after the initial 10% tariff rate.
Two months ago, Sigma raised the prices of all its lenses following the introduction of a 10% tariff on Japanese products. Now that the final tariff rate has been raised to 15%, Sigma has decided not to implement any further price increases. As PetaPixel explains, one of the advantages of the company is that it is not a public limited company and manufactures all components in the same factory. This makes it easier for the company to absorb the additional tariff rate.
