Market is saturated and tons of used gear and aftermarket to choose from. Oem prices are too high. They can choose what they want to do regarding prices. I still have the power to decide

Theres...

Let the mfr sweat and put effort in products people will want. Prices are too high as well

So the prices need to be high to counter the low sales? Thats fine, ill buy used and the mfr wont see...

I doubt anything is different except external

"It combines the award-winning optics of the original (old) ATX model with a sleek new look that matches the cosmetics of today’s advanced DSLR cameras.”

Same straight blades or rounded aperture lades?

Doing the nelson (simpsons) point and laugh
HAW-HA!
HAW-HA!
HAW-HA!

For $1400 +doesnt exactly sound enticing for amazing performance boost. You're expecting nothing less then amazing performance for that price.

If you said $400 and said the same about performance...

You work for sigma its obvious.

You put down tamron
You try to soften any negative blow against sigma
You put tons of effort into arguing their side
You sound like a brochure

Id flush the money...

Im putting 50 that you amd possibly your sidekick thw mrs, work for sigma

Projecting. Stupid American buzz words.

Sigma make great lenses. All their primes are great. I doubt this 24-70 is different and will substantially better. Well see.

Yes mr sac. Lenstip is...

Lenstip is awesome. Theyre the only ones who dont have a personal interest in mind. Like those companies who are in the us who want tou to buy from them so they can make money

I have nothing to...

Naive sub you are mrs thinker

Damn if i worked for sigma I would straight up say it and be proud but I wouldnt be here getting all flustered when someone said this specific lens is horrible. You...

Yea you work for sigma. Its obvious.

You sound like a brochure

Cool, both you suckers believe everything a mfr says. I have a lot of great things to sell you both

It can be a new design to fit mirrorless but it doesnt mean the optical performance has changed....

Its all hearsay to me. Are you a sigma pr agent trying to soften any blows against sigma? You're backing them on this lens like its a personal affair

Its not new. Theres a nikon rep on NR. Theres...

Lets hope so. Well wait and see.

Best for their sake it is.
You should see rhw fstoppers comparison of the sigma art/tamron g2/nikon vr trio. The sigma wasnt in the running

Like I said above, I...

This is a 2.8 art as well. Just a different look and different mounts. Im going to guess and say its like the old just tweaked with the mount.

Its known that if you pay sigma they will chnage your...

Out of all the 24-70 2.8, the sigma is the most lacking
Canon/nikon/sony/tamron

Dont know about the tokina. It has no stabilization. I wouldnt touch it

Front means in front of the mount. Rear zoom ring means towards the end of the lens.
If you look at rhe lens the rear elements are closer to the front of the lens. And the front of the lens is the...

Wuhhhht? I would have never guessed

Its an awesome camera. Congrats.
