It’s been a long time since rumors started circulating, and it seems that Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 for E mount and L-mount mirrorless cameras is finally coming. 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.

In addition Sigma 10-18mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary lens will be announced. This lens will be available for E / L and X-mount. Sigma has been aggressively releasing lenses for X mount and APS-C lately.
