According to a quote from Sigma’s CEO Kazuto Yamaki, Sigma will make a new full-frame 24-70mm F/2 lens.
“We might do, but not with the quality that we would like or at least not with good performance at maximum aperture.None of the current 24-70mm f/2.8 zooms are excellent to the level he aspires to achieve. Only the latest Canon version, he says bluntly when talking about competition, is really good.”
Sigma made the 24-70mm F2.8 EX DG HSM lens several years ago and going from f/2.8 to f/2 is not just twice as hard as the single stop difference suggests, so can we realistically expect it?
