Rumors : Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 FE Lens to be Announced on October 6

By on

According to latest rumors, Sigma will announce a new 70-200mm f/2.8 FE lens on October 6, 2023. It looks like this is going to be an affordable alternative to the current super expensive (and excellent performance) Sony FE 70-200mm F2.8 GM OSS II Lens.

The Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM Sports Lens Canon EF-mount version had a price tag of $1499. Currently, there are no specs & images about this Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 FE Lens.

Sigma is planning a live-streaming event on October 6th. Sigma is likely to announce a 70-200mm F2.8 for E-mount!

It’s been a long time since rumors started circulating, but it seems that Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 for mirrorless cameras is finally coming. As much as it took a long time, we would like to have high expectations for the finish of the optical system and AF. we think that the L-mount version will also appear, so it seems that Panasonic, Sigma, and Leica users will have a good telephoto zoom option!

Designed for  full-frame Sony E mount, you will be able to use this premium lens on mirrorless cameras such as the Sony A7 IV, Sony A7R IV.

Sony FE 70-200mm f/2.8 GM OSS II Lens: $2,798 at Amazon, B&H, Adorama.
