Sigma UK will be attending Focus on Imaging at the NEC, on Stand N3, between 7th (Sunday) and 10th of March. With a full range of products on display and experts available for questions and feedback, Sigma UK's team will be ready to welcome you. There's parking at the NEC, as well as easy access from Birmingham International, and you might be able to get a sneak peek at the new cameras too.
Whilst we can't afford to go jetting off to PMA in Las Vegas, we know a man who can - Gary L. Friedman; rocket scientist, photographer and musician. Here's a quick recap of his visit to the Sigma stand, and some pictures. Sigma's PMA announcements included the DP1x, DP2s, the final production specification for the SD15 and a new range of professional lenses including an 85mm F1.4 and a stabilised fast 70-200 F2.8.
Having already claimed numerous awards for the 50mm F1.4 "standard" lens, Sigma is now pitching at the heart of the full-frame portrait market with an 85mm F1.4. Will this lens repeat the success of the 50mm?
Sigma's classic walkabout lens, the 50-500 DG HSM, has been updated to include useful Optical Stabilisation - on a lens of this length, almost essential! This versatile lens is already a best seller, and the new version should continue that trend.
