- Sigma reveals four next L and E-Mount lenses
- 35 mm F1.2 II, 135 mm F1.4 and 20-200 mm F3.5-6.3 On September 25, 2025
- AutoFocus T2 cinema lens of 28-45 mm T2 also announced
Sigma has just announced an impressive lens quartet that should have photographers and cameramen looking for their wallets. The Japanese lens manufacturer is launching three new options for fixed photography, including what he says is the first autofocus f/1.4 lens of the world of the world, along with his inaugural automatic approach cinema cinema.
The four will be available in the electronic amount of L-Montón and Sony when they will be launched on September 25, 2025 (The Cinema Lens bar, which will be followed in November).
The star of the new alignment could be Sigma 135 mm F1.4 DG Art, which the company states that it is the first 135 mm automatic approach lens in the world with a maximum opening of f/1.4. If you ask why it is a big problem, it is because this focal distance has traditionally maximized in f/1.8 for automatic approach lenses, which additional two thirds of a marks a significant difference both for the low light performance and for the quality of Bokeh.
Sigma is positioning this as the maximum portrait lens, and the specifications seem to support that statement. The effective opening diameter produces bokeh that is larger than even the famous “105 mm sigma and comparable to the company’s F2 sporting lens of the company. That is a serious background potential.
With 50.4 OZ / 1,430 Gy 135.5 mm in length, it is certainly not a light option, but Sigma includes a magnesium alloy tripode compatible with ark-Swiss for extended shooting sessions.
Then there is Sigma 35 mm F1.2 DG II, which arrived six years after its predecessor, the first 35 mm mirror lens in the world. This time, Sigma has managed to reduce the package considerably while improving optical performance.
This version is approximately 30% lighter and 20% shorter than its predecessor, but, despite the reduction of the size, Sigma states that the optical performance improved with a better correction of chromatic aberration and the Sagital Coma Bengal.
Like the original, this lens is about delivering that coveted f/1.2 appearance, an excellent sharpness in which he wishes and the creamy bokeh where he does not. The company has paid special attention to minimizing focus breathing, which makes it equally suitable for video work such as Stills photography.
Having lens will travel
Perhaps the most intriguing of the trio is the contemporary of 20-200 mm F3.5-6.3 DG of Sigma: what the company states is the first 10x zoom lens of the world that begins in a focal length of 20 mm ultra width for cameras without full frame. Pretty bite, but impressive.
This is clearly Sigma’s response to the crowd of “a lens for everything.” The 20 mm wide end opens creative possibilities that conventional high power zoom simply cannot match, while 200 mm teleobjective reaches manages everything, from portraits to sports. The maximum increase ratio of 1: 2 in focal distances between 28-85 mm add macro capacities to the mixture.
What may be more impressive is how Sigma has managed to package all this versatility in a lens that weighs only 19.4 Oz / 550 Gy measures 115.5 mm long. For travel photographers who wish to pack light without sacrificing creative options, this could be the perfect partner.
Completing the ads is the first Sigma incursion into automatic focus cinema lenses with the T2 FF of 28-45 mm, which is launched on November 6. Built around the optical system of the acclaimed art lens F1.8 of 28-45 mm sigma, the film version adds characteristics of professional video such as 0.8M industry tone gears, an industry standard, a limited rotation approach ring and an opening ring without click. The HLA autofocus system promises an almost silent operation, which is crucial for video work.
With 42.3 Oz / 1.2 kg is a substantial kit, but that is the cos the course in the world of cinema. The support of lenses included and the professional characteristics suggest that Sigma takes the competition with established film lens manufacturers seriously.
With these four lenses, Sigma is clearly making a statement about your commitment to the market without a mirror. The 135 mm F1.4 breaks the new land in the photograph of portraits, 35 mm F1.2 II refine an excellent design, and 20-200 mm offers an unprecedented versatility in a compact package. Meanwhile, the cinema lens indicates Sigma’s intention to expand beyond world image fixing photography.
As for prices, 135 mm F1.4 costs $ 1,899 / £ 1,649, 35 mm F1.2 II costs $ 1,499 / £ 1,249, 20-200 mm F3.5-6.3 DG costs $ 999 / £ 799 and the T2 FF cinema lens of 28-45 mm costs $ 3,399 / £ 2,599 (Australia, Price TB). It is not clear if Sigma will do any of these lenses for other lens supports in addition to L and Sony E-Mount.
These lenses represent a good value compared to first part alternatives. For photographers seeking to expand their glass collection with high quality third parties, on September 25 it cannot arrive soon enough.
