Many of you have asked me about the meaning behind this teaser. I’m sorry to disappoint you, folks, but it refers to a new 25% cashback promotion running from October 5 to 11 at participating retailers across Latin America.
Julias report from Kyoto:
- Cameras Used: Lumix S1R II, S1 II, and Panasonic S5 series.
- Featured Lenses:
⚬ 35mm f/1.8: Julia’s primary lens for tight streets, markets, and cramped spaces.
⚬ 50mm f/1.8 & 85mm f/1.8: Used for portraits, golden hour shots, and telephoto compression (especially from balcony views and across streets).
I have three big L-mount news to share today:
First: New Sigma 50-120mm f/2.8 APS-C lens coming on October 8
I got not confirmation if that includes an L-mount version, all I know for sure is that this is the next lens coming from Sigma. What’s unclear is if Sigma will also announce another fast Full Frame prime lens on October 24th
Second: Exciting L-mount Cine camera is coming!
I have now reliable sources confirming that soon we will get a new Cine L-mount cameras. I am working on the specs now and should be able to share some details next week!
Finally some great gear is about to be announced. Particularly 2027 will be super interesting 😉
fpSup published a home made firmware for the Sigma FP. Before we kick off….be aware of the RISKS! Installing a modified firmware can brick your camera and developer Vitali LI stresses that it remains a work in progress and should be used at your own risk.
The modified firmware adds a 3K mode to the camera’s Quick Set menu, enabling 12-bit CinemaDNG recording at 3000 × 2000 and 24 fps to an external SSD. Unlike the standard 16:9 recording mode of the Sigma Fp it uses the sensor’s entire 3:2 area. It works through native 2×2 and even reduces the Rolling Shutter down to 12.44ms.
It’s possible more new features will be made available in the future. But would you risk ruining a $2500 camera for that?
