Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 FE Lens Firmware Update Released

Sigma released a new firmware update for the 14-24mm f/2.8 FE lens designed for Sony E-mount.

The company calls it the ‘definitive lens for astrophotography’ and emphasizes its ‘outstanding’ resolution to the edges of the frame, achieved in part thanks to the inclusion of low dispersion elements and Sigma’s Nano Porous Coating (NPC).

The lens is splash and dustproof, and features a rear filter holder. The aperture diaphragm uses 11 rounded blades, and the lens weighs 28 oz / 795g. US Price of the lens is $1,368. Check availability at Adorama, BHphoto, Amazon)
