Sigma Teasing New Faster Than f/2.8 Zoom?

Most probably the FF version of the 18-35/1.8. Something like a 30-60 or 35-70 f/2.0 or f/1.8. I'm afraid those wishing for an f/2.0 or f/1.8 tele-zoom would be sorely disappointed. Sigma can build that, but it would be huge, heavy & expensive and then these same people would say "for that price, I'd just get a Canon L" :P.

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

You were close with your 50-105 f2 guess.
It seems like it will be a 50-100 f1.8 (for crop sensor)
