Sigma has announced it is developing a 70-200mm F2.8 DG DN OS for Sony, Sigma, Panasonic and Leica full-frame mirrorless cameras.
The lens will be part of the company’s ‘Sports’ series of lenses, and becomes the second lens (after the 60-600mm F4.5-6.3 DG DN OS) to have its focus driven by an ‘HLA’ ‘high response’ linear actuator. Despite being part of the Sport series, Sigma makes clear it is designed to work alongside the 14-24mm F2.8 and 24-70mm F2.8 lenses from the Art series.
Pricing has not yet been announced but the company says it will be available from December this year.

Our DPREVIEW Tribute:
After nearly 25 years of operation, DPReview closed on 10 April 2023. This difficult decision was part of the annual operating plan review that parent company, Amazon, shared earlier this year.
Over the course of 25 years, DP Review built up a reputation as being one of the most informative places to go for information about that new camera or lens you’re after. DP Review began as an independent reviews site based in the UK in 1998, the brainchild of Philip and Joanna Askey, but it was eventually purchased by Amazon in 2007 and relocated over to Seattle in the USA in 2010.
Cheers DPReview – thanks for the great work and content that guided photographers, videographers and techno junkies the world over!
