Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 to Cost €999 and Sigma 12mmF1.4 DC DN Delayed (+ First Leaked Images)

An anonymous (and trusted) source with nickname has given us additional information about the upcoming Sigma lenses

Nevertheless, the Sigma 12mmF1.4 is planed and to prove it further, we share the first leaked images in this article. The fact that the images of the Sigma 17-40mmF1.8 leak at the same time as the ones of the Sigma 12mmF1.4 shows that both were originally planed to be announced together.

But thanks to our sources we now know about a last second delay.
