Sigma 60mm f2.8 DN Art

The new Sigma 60mm f/2.8 DN Art lens should be available later this month for $239. It will be available in both NEX mount and Micro Four Thirds mount.

The new lens was announced along with the 19mm f/2.8 DN and 30mm f/2.8 DN lenses back at CES 2013. The wider lenses carry a slightly lower price tag at $199 and have been shipping for a few weeks now.

The 60mm offers an equivalent focal length of 120mm on Micro Four Thirds cameras and 90mm on Sony NEX cameras. Minimum focus distance is at 19.7-inches and it contains Special Low Dispersion (SLD) glass to reduce chromatic aberration.

SLR Magic Lenses Now Available at Adorama

April 18, 2013 By Eric Reagan

SLR Magic Noktor 50mm f0.95 HyperPrime

Adorama is now stocking SLR Magic’s line of lenses, including the Noktor 50mm f/0.95 HyperPrime lens and the new Noktor 35mm T 0.95 HyperPrime Cine lens. There are plenty of cool Micro Four Thirds, Sony E-Mount and other lens mount options from SLR Magic.

These ridiculously fast primes could also turn out to be solid mates for the upcoming Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, along with the 12mm T/1.6 lens, which works out to roughly 36mm field of view equivalent on the Super 16 sensor of the BPCC.

Check out the full line of SLR Magic lenses here at Adorama.

Sony NEX-9 to Use Full Frame Alpha Lenses?

March 11, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Sony NEX-9 Rumors

The upcoming full frame NEX-9 is rumored to accept full frame Sony Alpha lenses; however, it is supposed to do so without the use of the LA-EA3 NEX-to-Alpha converter like the Sony VG900 camcorder uses.

Sigma 30mm F2.8 DN and 19mm F2.8 DN NEX & MFT Lenses Priced at $199

March 11, 2013 By Eric Reagan

 Sigma-30mm-DN-640x475

Sigma’s refreshed Micro Four Thirds and NEX primes, the 30mm F2.8 DN and 19mm F2.8 DN lenses, will begin shipping later in March for $199 each.

These new lenses are priced the same as their predecessors and should be solid additions to mirrorless kits – particularly the NEX versions due to the limited selection of available lenses thus far. I own the 30mm in the older version in NEX mount  and have been more than happy with the performance it delivered at the $199 price point.

You can order the new, improved versions from B&H at the below links.

Sigma 30mm f/2.8 DN: Sony NEX version | Micro Four Thirds version

Hasselblad Lunar Arrives Next Month

March 10, 2013 By Eric Reagan

Hasselblad Lunar

Hasselblad has confirmed that its new $5,000 Lunar mirrorless camera will launch next month.

The Hasselblad Lunar will be officially launched in April 2013.

We will, within a short time, launch a new and dedicated website section for the Lunar with all the information.

Recall that the Hasselblad Lunar is basically a rebadged Sony NEX-7 with Hasselblad’s cosmetic changes and a $4,000 markup. I can’t think of a good reason anyone should buy this camera, but I’m open to suggestions…
