A few new Sigma and Tamron branded lenses were announced over the last few days, two are now available for pre-order.<\/p>\n

Sigma announced the Sigma Art 50-100mm f\/1.8 DC HSM for Canon<\/a>, this is a fast aperture (f\/1.8!) telephoto zoom designed for crop-body (EF-S) sensors. It’s quite a novel range and aperture, similar to their Art 18-35mm f\/1.8 DC<\/a>. It’s available for pre-order for $1099.00 at B&H<\/a> with an expected ship date of April.<\/p>\n

Tamron announced the Tamron SP 90mm f\/2.8 Di Macro 1:1 VC USD<\/a>, a vibration-controlled f\/2.8 Macro lens that will likely compete toe-to-toe with the Canon 100L Macro<\/a>. It’s competitively priced at $649.00 at B&H<\/a> and is available to ship this week!<\/p>\n

Finally, Tamron also announced the Tamron SP 85mm f\/1.8 Di VC USD<\/a>, a vibration-controlled f\/1.8 prime. No pricing has been announced, but we expect it to be aggressive; they are likely hoping to take market share away from those waiting for the Sigma Art 85mm (still nowhere to be seen.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
