One of the oldest and most reliable rumor sites out there, Sony Alpha Rumors, got a hint from a reader that a Lithuanian store has the upcoming Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art lens with a price tag of $1,999.

Hard to say if the price in US$ shown in an online store in Lithuania is the same price Sigma will ask in the USA. B&H Photo and Adorama still have the Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art listed without any price tag. However, $1,999 may turn out to be a pretty realistic price (prediction).

It shouldn’t take much longer until the new Sigma 105mm f/1.4 DG ART HSM lens will be available. B&H Photo has you notified when pre-orders are available.

Sigma’s new 70-200mm f/2.8 ART and 70-200mm f/4 CONTEMPORARY lenses coming ahead of Photokina, not CP+

Weeks ago we were told Sigma may soon announce new 70-200mm f/2.8 ART and 70-200mm f/4 CONTEMPORARY lenses. We were expecting the announcement before  CP+. But nope.

The same source has now told us, Sigma has delayed the release of these new lenses until September, 2018. This makes us think Sigma is set for an announcement ahead of Photokina (September 2018). So far we have no hints about price and specifications.

Stay tuned.
