That’s good news for Sony E-mount and MFT mount folk: Sigma is launching a $450 30mm f/1.4 lens on Feb. 23! We long worried if Sigma would continued to develop DN APS-C lenses for mirrorless system And that’s really the positive answer we hoped to get. The only drawback is that the lens will not be available for Fuji and Canon camera owners yet. But Sigma could fix this in the near future…

Nice Good start, 19mm F1.4 and 60mmF1.4 will follow? and where is the FF?
Is it the same optics as 30mm f/1,4 ART for APS-C DSLRs? (Effectively having a built in extension)
Definitely not. If it were, it would be somewhat heavier than DSLR counterpart (by the weight of the built-in extension). This one is 265g, DC HSM “A” is 435g.
And I hope they keep the filter diameter the same for the three lenses like they did on the F2.8 series, or is this to much to ask? IF they are going to bring out these lenses.
And keep it compact unlike the Sony lenses which are big and heavy.
My favorite angles are 30°, 60°, 90° on FF, so this would be a nice trio it would come close to 60mm, 30mm, and 19mm in APS-C
By looking at the picture of the lens again, there is something I missed, it ‘s a Contemporary line and not an ART line, hmm, if it is the lens?
Please make some affordable primes for FE, Sigma. USD500 for 24mm f/2.8, 50mm f/1.8 and 90mm f/2.8 will be appreciated 🙂
