(SR4) Sigma will launch two new ART prime lenses this year: 14mm f/1.8 and 135mm f/1.8

We have been told by a reliable sources that Sigma will launch two new ART lenses this year:

-14mm f/1.8
-135mm f/1.8

It’s yet unclear if there will be an A-mount version of those. While the current 35mm ART and 50mm ART are available for A-mount the 85mm ART is not. My guess is that as usual Sigma will first announce the Nikon/Canon/Sigma mount versions and maybe later the Sony A-mount and Pentax K-mount versions. That said these new Sigma lenses will get full electronic compatibility on E-mount cameras when you use the Sigma MC-11 Mount Converter.

if the Sigma 135mm f/1.8 is as least as good as the 135mm Zeiss but for under $1,000 well than I am sure the A-mount folks will be very happy about that new glass!
