So for all those who were bemoaning the lack of a fast (1.4) normal prime on APS-C Pentax, be unbemoanful.
http://www.pmda.com/2012/11/sigma-corporation-of-americas-35mm-f1-4-dg-hsm-now-available Almost more important is Sigma's new clever marketing angle for this very expensive ($900) bauble: they are creating new use-based "lines" for their lenses and this one is being labelled "Art". "As the first lens released under Sigma’s new Art line, it will feature a new matte finish and overall new design concept, which includes a clearly defined category label on every new lens." I for one cannot wait to see what gets released under the Decisive Moment line. Or what about the Undraped Women line? What if you try using a Landscape line lens for birds? Maybe a large red circle with a diagonal line appears in your viewfinder. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
