Sigma Lenses at PMA?

KenjiS · 16th of February 2009 (Mon)

Just heard a rumor on CR about 3 new Sigma lenses..

10-20 f/2.8

70-300 OS

70-200 f/2.8 OS

The rumor came from Nikon rumors, but as they said, if they get em on the F mount, EF isnt far behind

If true, I'm seriously thinking of returning that 70-200 f/2.8 I just ordered and holding off for that Sigma! Thankfully the place I got her from has a 30 day return policy

I've wanted a 70-200 f2.8 OS to replace my current version ever since I got the Bigmos and realized how good OS really is... Now is only I good afford one (if and when it's released)

a 10-20 2.8 would make me sell my 10-22

i heard the new 10-20 would be f3.5, instead of f2.8

Was hoping for a 70-200m 2.8 OS, but the 10-20 looks promising.

That 10-20 is on my wish list now. too bad it will likely be close to the canons 10-22 price mark.

They SHOULD have made it an f2.8 lens!! That way it would have not only competed with the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 lens, but also the Tokina 11-16mm f2.8 lens (as long as the IQ, sharpness, et al were comparable).

That's not a good business model for Sigma. They have to keep their similar lenses considerably less expensive.

Yes but its also a f/3.5 lens, the Canon is not (At least not constantly)

If it can deliver optical quality that makes the Canon look like &^$# people will buy it
