There have been rumours about Sigma releasing a 50mm f/1.4 DG DN Art series lens for mirrorless cameras for a little while. A couple of weeks ago, we saw some of the specs leak and now, thanks to Sony Alpha Rumors, we have our first photo of the lens showing what it’ll actually look like. It’s a significant design change from the Sigma 50mm f/1.4 DG HSM Art for DSLRs, showing quite a different exterior.

The interior is also different, with a new optical formula with more elements in more groups. Sigma has also announced a Sigma Stage Online event for February 7th, with a description talking about discovering new products. So an announcement for something is definitely imminent. Could it be the new 50mm f/1.4 DG DN Art lens?

Sigma product announcement scheduled for Jan 12th – First Sigma Z mount lens on the way?

Sigma Global has announced a new Sigma Stage online event for January 12th at 9pm JST. That means noon for the UK, 7am Eastern or 4am Pacific. As per usual, Sigma hasn’t given any hints as to what might be coming, simply saying “New Products Presentation” – suggesting we might see more than one thing – but recent rumours suggest we might be seeing the new Sigma 60-600mm f/4.5-6.3 DG DN OS Sports lens.

The DG DN designation means it’ll be a full-frame lens designed specifically for mirrorless cameras. But what’s particularly special about this lens – other than being an update to the past popular DSLR lens – is that it looks set to be Sigma’s first lens for Nikon Z mount cameras. If it turns out to be true, then “new products” might be many of their existing DG DN lenses also being announced for Z Mount.
