In addition to the other responses noting that you can use an L-Mount converter to make use of L-Mount lenses, Sigma also has a lens conversion service where you can change the mount of your lens to some other supported mount (like Canon or Nikon). You could always do that later if you switched systems, or just thought it would help resale (though I personally think SA mount resale should be pretty decent with some L-Mount cameras out that can use them, even if just via adaptor).

Last time I checked, the Sigma mount conversion service only applies to Global Vision lenses held by the original buyer, purchased from an authorized retailer, with proof of purchase.

That's a big gotcha.

Can you give a link to where you got that information about being the original purchaser with proof of purchase being required as I have read a bit about the mount conversion service and never come across that provision.

PT,

Nor have I. It is a paid service and all that needs to be done is to give the lens to your local Sigma Centre or to the import agent for Sigma in your country.
