Al Dolega Posted Friday at 07:28 PM Share Posted Friday at 07:28 PM https://www.canonrumors.com/canon-aps-c-shooters-rejoice-sigma-to-launch-the-rf-17-40mm-f-1-8-and-rf-12mm-f-1-4/ Remember those like 5 years where everyone had the 18-35mm f1.8? Seems like this would be the successor. Full frame is of course dominant now, so this wouldn't be as omnipresent as the 18-35, but could still be a very popular choice, at least if it comes to other mounts too. eatstoomuchjam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted Friday at 10:44 PM Administrators Share Posted Friday at 10:44 PM I will take a Sigma 17-40mm F1.8 for my Fuji X-Pro3 thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Dolega Posted yesterday at 02:43 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 02:43 AM Looks like E, X, L, RF. I would assume Z too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSMW Posted yesterday at 05:49 AM Share Posted yesterday at 05:49 AM Really great focal range for me, but I don’t have any APSC cameras. Interesting though…especially if I do move over to Sony next year because on an FX30 body, that would be a very neat pairing for my needs… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Members BTM_Pix Posted 19 hours ago Super Members Share Posted 19 hours ago Not sure what the situation is with Sigma and the Z mount. They do three of their fast compact APS-C primes in Z mount but not the zooms or full frame. They do more in RF mount but, again, no full frame. You could speculate that pressure from both their L mount partners and their sensor supplier keeps them out of supplying the big two with full frame lenses. In the case of Nikon it’s a bit moot as with the Megadap you can just buy the e-mount versions anyway and have them as near as dammit native anyway.

ntblowz Posted 19 hours ago Share Posted 19 hours ago Curious about the size of 17-40mm 1.8, if it is still similar to 18-35mm I think the FF 28-70/24-60 2.8 will be a better choice for smaller size/weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Framed_By_Dan Posted 17 hours ago Share Posted 17 hours ago I'd honestly love a 17-40mm f1.8 in L mount for sake of the crop in 4K50 on the S1. As long as it's not a behemoth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emanuel Posted 10 hours ago Share Posted 10 hours ago I will probably add this one to come now when I have a 16-300mm f/3.5-6.7 [tiptop AF & breathing as well 6-stops @16mm & 4.5-stops @300mm stabilization performance*] for day light, paid last Thursday and scheduled to just arrive by this June 2... *These tests serve as example why new releases can bring a whole difference working out as useful add-on to your arsenal... A bit more of love spread wherever fits wouldn't hurt ; ) No use of primes match the resource of zoom lenses and how handy they are. Fast glass is not everything in life, even though their blesses I also stand as irresistible indeed. Go figure to couple a lightweight zoom range like this one is.
