This evening, Sigma has announced that the primes in their ART series lens lineup will soon be available in L-Mount. When? Well… sometime. Probably this year. Furthermore, Sigma has announced the MC-21 lens converter that adapts 29 of Sigma’s EF-mount lenses to L-mount, with full functionality on L-mount cameras, including image stabilization info and chromatic aberration correction profiles. If you’re one of the dozen or so people who own a Sigma camera, there will also be a similar SA-mount to L converter available. Launch date: TBD.
However, photos are available, so it can’t be too far off. You can check out all of the available primes and the mount converter in the photo gallery below.
The list of primes that will be available in L-mount includes the following:
- SIGMA 14mm F1.8 DG HSM | Art
- SIGMA 20mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art
- SIGMA 24mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art

- SIGMA 50mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art
- SIGMA 70mm F2.8 DG MACRO | Art

- SIGMA 135mm F1.8 DG HSM | Art
Price & Availability
Prices of the new lenses should, if history can be our guide, be the same as they are in any other mount. All of these lenses are currently available in Canon, Nikon, and Sony-E mount, so there’s no reason to believe that the L-mount should be more expensive. You can always check them at B&H Photo or Adorama (our affiliates).
I can only guess about availability, but I’d guess that we’ll start seeing these lenses hit store shelves late in the spring and throughout the summer.
