RE: Photos of new Sigmas
They need to wait for the Pentax to be released before they can backwards engineer it. Do I read this right that this means Sigma now have IS for their own bodies too? It must have been some work to backwards engineer both Nikon and Canon systems... -Original Message- From: MPozzi [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 19 September 2002 16:52 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Photos of new Sigmas Fantasctic (120-300 f2.8!), and they have IS...

Let's hope they will produce HSM and OS versions for Pentax not too long after Pentax will introduce similar solutions on Photokina... anyway I would like them to do so :-) Regards Sylwek

RE: Photos of new Sigmas
If they think that they can sell enough, then it is worth it. For Pentax (I haven't bought anything new in 20 years!) why bother. Right now IS and HSM are in the realm of rumor for Pentax: a patent is not a product announcement. Minolta announced 3 lenses quite some time ago with their version of HSM, and they aren't out yet. When/if they are actually put them on sale then Sigma will probably offer these features in Minolta mount. The fact that Minolta hasn't started selling them yet should tell you something about Minolta's priorities.
