Sigma 100-400mm f5.0-6.3 DG DN OS Contemporary Coming for Fujifilm X Mount (New Source)

Share

I know, I know.

In the Sigma world, DG lenses are for Full Frame, whereas DC lenses are for APS-C.

Got it.

But I also got a rumor from a new source (via the revived anonymous rumor box), that Sigma will launch a X series version of their Sigma 100-400mm f5.0-6.3 DG DN OS Contemporary.

The release should happen still this year.

Yes, it’s a full frame lens, but it is not a new practice to adapt Full Frame glass to APS-C, as we can see for example with the Tamron 150-500mm f/5-6.7, which was also initially launched for Full Frame but then Tamron released it also for X mount.

So, if the rumor is accurate, Sigma would just do the same.

Look, I also prefer it when lenses are specifically designed for APS-C, as it would make the lens smaller, but I also get it that for Sigma, Tamron & Co it is simply very cost efficient to take an existing FF lens and swap the mount to make it fit for APS-C.

Again… this rumor comes from a new source. So, while we are grateful for the tip, we also have to take it with the mandatory grain of salt. I was not able to double confirm or multiple check it.

  • TO THE SOURCE: Thanks for giving yourself a nickname so I can identify you in future if you decide to share more details.

Don’t Worry: Fujifilm GFX100 Successor Still with Detachable and Tiltable EVF (unlike GFX50S Successor)

Share

One of the features many loved when Fujifilm launched their original Fujifilm GFX50S, was that thanks to the EVF-TL1 and EVF-GFX, the camera had detachable and tillable EVF.

Sadly its successor, the (currently heavily discounted) Fujifilm GFX50SII, has lost this feature.

And the (also discounted) Fujifilm GFX100S did not even came with the tilt and detachable EVF, making quite some GFX lovers worry that Fujifilm had given up on this feature.

Well, for lovers of that feature, I have a good news for you today.

According to our trusted sources (thanks!!!), the Fujifilm GFX100 successor will retain the “tilt-and-detach” EVF feature.

I guess it’s time to start our rumor recap:
