If you’re the kind of photographer that
likes to get down to the nitty gritty when making adjustments,
Sigma’s new direction is going to make you very happy.
Starting with
their new 35mm f/1.4 lens, the company is adding the ability to tweak
to your heart’s content through your computer via a USB dock. You
can update firmware, play with different parameters and even make
micro focus adjustments.
The 35mm F1.4 DG HSM is also the first
lens in Sigma’s Art line. It sports a hyper sonic motor for quiet
autofocus, Super Multi-Layer Coating to help in the elimination of
flare and ghosting and four Super Low Dispersion lenses that pair
with a single Low Dispersion lens.
Sigma’s new 35mm F1.4 DG HSM runs $ 899.
The USB dock will be out in the near future – no word on pricing
yet.
