Sigma Corp. of America introduced new lenses for Sony E-Mount and L-Mount. The Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras, available in late September 2025, starts at 20mm, and the starting range is much wider than the average high-power zoom lens. It weighs in at only 550 grams in a 4.5-inch body. Ideal for travel photography and everyday documentation of life’s moments, this lens is the perfect all-around lens for any photographer.
A maximum magnification ratio of 1:2 is achieved at a focal range of 28mm to 85mm. At 28mm, one can capture a broad background to emphasize depth, while at 85mm the background can be blurred extensively for a clean look. Even at the telephoto end of 200mm, a magnification ratio of 1:3.3 still enables close-up shooting.
Swift, accurate autofocus is driven by Sigma’s HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) motor, allowing for fast subject acquisition and tracking.
The Sigma 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary lens will be available in late September at authorized Sigma dealers in the US for Sony E-mount and L-Mount for a retail price of $999 USD.
Sigma also introduced the Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art lens for full-frame mirrorless cameras, available in late September 2025. It is designed as the successor to the Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG DN | Art lens released in 2019, and follows in the footsteps of the ultra-fast, high-performance 50mm F1.2 DG DN | Art lens released last year.
The Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art features a much smaller footprint, comparable in size to the 35mm F1.4 DG DN | Art. Autofocusing performance has been upgraded, and overall optical quality has also been improved. With its bright F1.2 aperture, the lens is ideal for nightscape photography in addition to portraiture, landscapes, street photography, and many other genres that embrace the 35mm focal length.
The Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art lens will be available in late September at authorized Sigma dealers in the US for Sony E-mount and L-Mount for a retail price of $1,549 USD.
Sigma also introduced the Sigma AF Cine Line 28-45mm T2 FF, the first lens in the AF Cine Line and the first Sigma Cine lens to feature autofocus capabilities.
Based on the optical formula of the 28-45mm F1.8 DG DN | Art lens, the 28-45mm T2 FF is designed to support full-frame camera sensors with completely redesigned electrical and mechanical parts to provide the focus and aperture drive features required for use with cinema cameras. In addition, the appearance and build quality are representative of a premium cinema lens, with exceptional dust- and splash-resistant performance for use in varied environments.
Similar to the 28-45mm F1.8 DG DN | Art, the autofocus of the 28-45mm T2 FF is driven by a High-response Linear Actuator (HLA) motor. For manual focus operation, this lens features a focus ring with a distance scale and fixed rotation range. It is compatible with DMF (Direct Manual Focus) and AF Assist on Sony E-mount, as well as the AF+MF function on L-Mount.
The Sigma AF Cine 28-45mm T2 FF lens will be available in early November at authorized Sigma Cine Lens dealers in the US for Sony E-mount and L-Mount for a retail price of $3,399 USD.
