Här kommer en snabböversättning (webb) till engelska av artiklen från sidan som nämts ovan:
"With the occasion of Photokina, Sigma reveals four new objectives which did not finish making salivate amateurs and professionals. The time when Sigma teased the large marks with cheap objectives is quite completed: from now on, the turbulent Japanese optician privileges the chart of the innovation, as the four innovations testify some which have been just announced:
- zoom trans-standard 28-70 mm f/2,8-4 HSM: will be available as of October 2002 in mountings Canon, Nikon D, Minolta D, Pentax AF and sigma.
- Telezoom 80-400 mm f/4,5-5,6 EX OS "Optical Stabilizer". Yes, you well read... "80-400 stalibilized!!! A true innovation, with two modes of stabilizations: Mode 1 (H + V) for the static subjects, mode 2 (H only) for the follow-up of subjects moving. Like the other objectives with ultrasonic motorization HSM, it authorizes the permanent final improvement of the point without disengaging of AF.
- zoom 120-300mm F2,8 EX IF HSM is a luminous ultra telezoom with constant opening F2,8 with motorization HSM.
- zoom 300-800mm F5,6 EX IF HSM is an ultra telezoom with constant opening of F5,6 with motorization HSM. These three new zooms EX will be compatible Canon, Nikon and... Sigma, which means that, contrary to certain rumours, the numerical reflex camera of the mark is far from being buried.
In parallel, Sigma announces two flashs:
- flash EF 500 DG ST, automatic flash TTL with head directional automatic zoom, intended for the cases silver and numerical reflex cameras.
- flash EF 500 SUPER DG, intended for the photography advanced with the flash with the cases reflex cameras silver and numerical (special functions of the compatible cases).
Frågorna är många t.ex.
- Är det buffel o båg?
- Om det är så, priserna på sådana objektiv som 120-300/2.8 lär bli dyra
- Photokina är om 6 dagar så då får vi se.
