Sigma unveils world's first 20-200mm superzoom for full-frame – alongside game-changing landscape and portrait fast prime lenses

There are gear drops... and there are moments like this. Today, Sigma announced not one, not two, but three new full-frame mirrorless lenses. Two of which are the first of their kind anywhere in the world, all built for L-mount and Sony E-mount systems.

First up is the Sigma 35mm f/1.2 DG II | Art – a refined take on the beloved Sigma 35mm F1.2 DG DN | Art original. Sigma has re-engineered it for better optical and autofocus performance, lighter weight, and improved balance, especially on compact full-frame bodies, and it will be available for $1,549 / £1,299.

Then there's the new Sigma 135mm f/1.4 DG | Art – marking a global first. It's the only AF lens of its kind at this focal length and aperture, and it's clearly built with portrait photographers in mind. Priced at $1,899 / £1,649, you can expect beautiful falloff, crisp detail, and bokeh that melts away distractions.

And finally – maybe the biggest surprise of the morning – the world's first high-power 20-200mm zoom lens for full-frame mirrorless. The Sigma 20-200mm f/3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary is an absolute powerhouse: versatile, robust, and with a price of $999 / £799, it is shockingly affordable. For cross-genre creatives, this could easily become your go-to glass.

If you're in London, you can get hands-on experience with all three lenses at Sigma's pop-up store, which will be open from September 13 to 22 . The lenses go on sale from September 25.
