Here is the full list: 14mm F1.8 DG HSM | Art 20mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 24mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 28mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 35mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 40mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 70mm F2.8 DG Macro | Art 85mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 105mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art 135mm F1.8 DG HSM | Art Sigma today announces that a total of eleven Art Series full-frame L-Mount lenses will be launched in the near future. According to the manufacturer, these lenses all have a high-speed autofocus which is fully compatible with the AF-C mode. In addition, there is also compatibility with the camera stabilization as well as the correction of e.g. chromatic aberrations in the camera. The lenses presented today are all fixed focal lengths. With the release of this lens series, L-Mount users will be able to cover the focal length range from 14 mm to 135 mm with fixed focal lengths. The most important features of these lenses are: Optimized Autofocus for L-Mount The complete package of camera and Sigma lenses will benefit from the "AF Drive Control Program" and the "high-speed Communication". The speed and precision of the autofocus are optimized by better communication between the components. Compatibility with Camera Stabilization The camera recognizes and considers the focal length of these Sigma optics and optimizes the image stabilization accordingly according to the manufacturer. Compatibility with In-Camera Aberration Correction The camera takes into account the characteristics of the lens in terms of distortion or aberrations. According to the manufacturer, this should have a positive influence on the prevention of chromatic aberrations and distortions, for example. Native Lenses Ensure Stable Handling By using the native L-Mount lenses, photographers do not need to resort to adapters. In addition to the more stable feeling in handling, the lenses feature an even better fit, better durability as well as optimized dust and splash water resistance. The lenses are part of the "Sigma Mount Conversion Service" program. The availability and prices for the eleven L-mount series lenses will be announced later. Zitat SIGMA Corporation is pleased to announce the launch of the Art line prime lens lineup for full-frame cameras in L-Mount. These L-Mount series lenses have achieved high-speed AF and are fully compatible with AF-C mode, in-camera image stabilization, and in-camera aberration correction. The lineup will consist of 11 prime lenses for full-frame cameras from SIGMA’s Art line covering from 14mm to 135mm currently available in other mounts, allowing the Art line, which pursues the highest performance, to be enjoyed on L-Mount cameras. 1. Optimized AF for L-Mount※１ With the AF drive control program and high-speed communication tuned for each lens, shooting at speed with high-precision AF control is achieved. The lenses also support the AF-C mode. 2. Compatible with in-camera image stabilization※１ Compatible with in-camera image stabilization, the camera automatically detects the focal length of each lens and optimizes image stabilization performance. 3. Data pre-loaded for compatibility with in-camera aberration correction※１ Fully compatible with in-camera aberration correction (corrections for peripheral illumination, chromatic aberrations, and distortion). By matching corrections to the optical characteristics of the lens, this function takes image quality to an even higher level. 4. Native mount for a more rigid and stable feel Making the lens mount native provides a much more rigid and stable feel to the lens than using an adapter. Featuring a surface treatment to enhance strength, the brass bayonet mount offers a high-precision fit and exceptional durability. The mount connection area incorporates rubber sealing for dust- and splash-proof construction. 5. Available SIGMA Mount Conversion Service※２ This service converts specifications of the mount of SIGMA lenses to that of a different camera body. Users can “tailor” their favorite lenses to the camera body if they plan to get a new one in the future. This allows continued use of their favorite lenses over the long term regardless of the camera system. ※1 Compatibility with each function depends on the functions available on each camera. ※2 The SIGMA Mount Conversion Service (chargeable) is different from a normal repair service. It is not available at stores. In order to apply for the service, please contact your nearest authorized SIGMA subsidiary or distributor.

Ivar B Posted March 30, 2019 Share #3 Posted March 30, 2019 I own the ART 1.4/85 in Canon Mount. I am considering replacing the mount for an L-mount, but the Norwegian importer knew nothing of this. Does anybody know if the concersion service is underway? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrp Posted March 30, 2019 Share #4 Posted March 30, 2019 If these come on, we're going to be lucky. Some of these lenses are special / unique. It will be interesting to see the first 50mm Leica / Panasonic / Sigma comparison, which will require more than just MTF / sharpness tests to distinguish the lenses.

mmradman Posted March 30, 2019 Share #5 Posted March 30, 2019 Key differentiator for latest generation of AF optics are scales. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merv-O Posted March 31, 2019 Share #6 Posted March 31, 2019 I already own several SIGMA lenses that I use with me Pentax Kits. The full frame lenses (currently used on my K-1) are large. For example, the size of the 15-30mm alone takes the space go my Leica 35mm, 50mm & Leitz 90mm. Even the primes are larger than most 'Leicans' will have experienced. Though not svelte, they do produce quality images but not very compact. Perhaps this new association with Lumix/Leica will have SIGMA develop a more compact lens in comparison to the focal length. One thing SIGMA does offer is great value. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bags27 Posted April 3, 2019 Share #7 Posted April 3, 2019 Advertisement (gone after registration) prices announced. will make for very interesting alternatives to Leica lenses which are 3 (TL) - 5 (L) times more expensive, and all the others for which there are no comparables. https://leicarumors.com/ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCMielke Posted April 4, 2019 Share #8 Posted April 4, 2019 The 40 f/1.4 looks like a great lens. Now I need to decide whether I will get it in the Nikon or L mount. Since I currently still use both systems(at least for now) I am confused. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkP Posted April 5, 2019 Share #9 Posted April 5, 2019 I've been waiting for the 2.0/50 Sumicron-SL as a single fast general-purpose lens to complement the 24-90 SL A 1.4/40 would be an excellent and cheap alternative. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capnord Posted June 12, 2019 Share #10 Posted June 12, 2019 (edited) Hi all. Any recent news about these Sigma L lenses ? (Also interested by news about Lumix S pro 24-70mm f/2.8) Edited June 12, 2019 by Capnord Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
