Sigma Teasing New Faster Than f/2.8 Zoom?
- Thread starter Canon Rumors
- Start date
I did a little rough math assuming that silhouette is actually of the lens. Given that and Sigma's current lineup (especially the 24-35 f/2), I'm willing to bet this will be an 85-135 f/2. They'll call it the ultimate portrait lens, and it'll follow that same trick of sacrificing one stop in exchange for getting near-prime performance at several desirable focal lengths. If that's what this is, it'll be a huge moment for them...

I'd also like to see them bring out a portrait zoom.
Hopefully it'll be a 55 to 135 f2.0 or faster and for ff.

See my signature: For me 35-85mm is the ideal portrait range, but I'd be truly surprised if such a lens sees the light of day.
If it is like the other f/2 Sigma zoom then perhaps it will also have a short zoom range, perhaps 55-85mm f/2 could be a realistic expectation, while still being a world-first type product.

a couple of theories.
1) stabilized macro zoom.. tripod foot, big bulge for OS on/off, manual, large focus ring, smaller zoom ring after the buttons bulge.
2) stabilized DO 70-200 f/2.8.. but looks a bit short for that focal length..
3 stabilized portrait/macro lens with de-focus control (bulge after buttons)

Whenever I read something like this I always first think it says Sigma 135mm F-Art.ecka said:Sigma 135mm F1.4 Art
:
135mm farts would be pretty useful. My current farts are only 28mm and small aperture.

If Zhongyi can do it, why can't Sigma?28mm F-Art? I don't think there is such a lens. Am I missing something?

i had to reply:
i'm hoping one of these:
35-85 f2
35-105 f2
50-105 f2
i'm pretty sure its a shorter range zoom at f2 for people photography
not covering the wide end as they have the range up to 35 f2 covered,
i'm hoping they can span the 35-85 at f2, 105 would be even better,
but 105 would probably be f2.8 (canon's old 28-105 but faster)
i could do 75% of my shots with this new lens
and the rest with a 70-200

Original Post:
Stimme Dir zu ein 85er wäre toll
Google Translation:
Agree you to a 85mm would be great
85 ART MAYBE?
Quote from Sigma-Rumors comments:
When somebody asked them (Sigma-Hungary) if it is a 85/1.4, they answered:
Almost! ;-)
