  • zengarden

    I see that optics manufacturers have begun to pay more attention to the Leica L mount, probably due to the release of the Panasonic Lumix S1 / S1R.

    • Novel

      So Leica, Sigma, Panasonic allied around the L-mount to confront Canon, Nikon and Sony.

      • Paul

        And only Pentax-san stands in splendid isolation ... A real Japanese samurai!

        • Arkady Shapoval

          Well, then, Pentax has its own mirrorless Pentax Q: with crop 5.5 and 4.6 :)

        • Alexander

          Pentax went for a long time, it's just a plaque with a percentage of the market within the measurement error. since 2007, it was owned by a hoya, then in 2011 a rico, all further in a fog. most likely, the brand will be closed.

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Sigma is interested in this because, due to the alliance, it has a chance to sell more of its lenses.

    • Gandalf

      Um, Sigma, all of a sudden, enters the Alliance L. She has to release 11 lenses.

  • Victor

    In conjunction with fp you need a canon type pancake. You can even manual. It will be the perfect traveler camera.

    ... I wonder if anyone managed to remake Industar-69 so that it covered a full frame?

    • Pokemon

      fp is positioned for the video and there is a buyer, not a foveon.
      And the camera itself is advertised on rollers with Sigma lenses for video shooting.
      Look at the videos on the official Sigma channel - a special cooling system is built into the camera to remove heat from the camera board when shooting video.

    • Oleg

      Yes it looks more like a camcorder

    • Victor

      But what, in general, the difference is what and how they promote there. The main thing is that this is the first full-frame camera that you can stuff into your pocket. Well, except for the film, of course.

      • Arkady Shapoval

        What about sony rx1 and her descendants?

      • Pokemon

        First, let's wait $ prices $, and then talk about stuffing in your pocket ;-)

    • BB

      How to 'remake' it, if it is designed, let's say, for a 'crop 1.5', also with a small flange distance?

      • anonym

        What crop are you talking about?

        • zengarden

          Under the crop SF, probably :)

  • Vitali

    Why are the other lenses under l mount sigma some kind of long? It’s as if she’s not making new ones, but simply redoing the adapter for a different bayonet mount, and inside the same circuit as on the DSLRs?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      Because there are only a few “clean” mirrorless lenses, this is the DG DN series (that is, full frame mirrorless lenses)

      Sigma 45mm 1: 2.8 DG DN | C (Contemporary)
      Sigma 35mm 1: 1.2 DG DN | A (Art)
      Sigma 14-24mm 1: 2.8 DG DN | A (Art) not to be confused with similar mirror DG HSM | A (Art)
      Sigma 24-70mm 1: 2.8 DG DN | A (Art) not to be confused with similar mirror DG HSM OS | A (Art)

      The rest of the L-mount / Sony FE lenses are originally mirrored versions, which were redesigned for mirrorless lenses by simply lengthening their rear part to compensate for the flange distance. That is why they look so “long”, but there are no adapters there, and the optical scheme is really the same
