Sigma is announcing three new lenses, sort of. First off, they’re announcing that they’re marketing/categorizing their lenses in three different ways now: contemporary (for more casual use), art (seems to be an emphasis on fast primes) and sports (for, well, do I need to explain?). In the contemporary section is the 17-70mm f2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM. Then the art lens is their new 35mm f1.4 DG HSM, which took them long enough to get out and now completes the 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm trifecta of fast primes for the classic photographer. Then there is the 120-300mm f2.8 DG OS HSM lens for sports photographers. This lens is not to be confused with the previously announced version.

Specs are after the jump. No word on pricing yet.
