Sigma just announced a first of its kind lens, the 18-35 F1.8 DC HSM Art Lens. What is so unique about this lens is that fact that it has a fixed aperture of F1.8 all the way threw its zoom range. This lens is only for APS-C sensor cameras which means it is not meant for a full frame camera.

The 35mm equivalent of this lens is 27mm-52.5mm at F1.8. This lens will be available for Nikon, Canon and Sigma mounts.

There has not been a priced announced yet which leaves me with some questions. Will this lens be over $1,000 or will it be less? If it is not much less than a grand I can not see to many beginners purchasing it. The reason I say this is that many beginners just spent a lot on a camera body and don't yet understand the importance that the glass plays.

I am not sure how well it will sell as many pros have ventured into full frame at this point. If the price is right I could see this being the new must have lens though for all APS-C sized sensors.

When this lens is officially released with more information on pricing I will be sure to bring you a full review from Allens Camera.
