Press text:

The SIGMA Corporation is pleased to announce the development of a new high-performance, large-diameter wide-angle lens, SIGMA 16mm F1.4 DC DN | Contemporary.
This is the world’s first interchangeable lens for mirrorless Sony E-mount cameras in the APS-C format to offer a 24mm focal length (35mm equivalent) and F1.4 brightness. This is the large-diameter wide-angle lens for which mirrorless camera users have been waiting.
With an optical system that rivals that of interchangeable lenses for full-size SLRs, the lens features a wide variety of high-tech optical elements. SIGMA has crafted a lens that leverages optical aberration minimization via the in-camera digital correction. This lens effectively minimizes optical aberrations and offers superb resolution at wide-open aperture and throughout the aperture range. The optical design and stepping motor deliver smooth autofocus during video shooting, while the mount features special sealing creating a dust- and splash-proof design.
Release date and price: TBD
Accessory: Petal type lens hood (LH716-01)
Corresponding AF mounts: Sony E-mount and Micro Four Thirds
* The appearance and specifications are subject to change without notice.

By now you will have learned via all possible photo websites that Adobe launched the new Lightroom CC. The real disaster news is that there will be no standalone version of this. Now its “cloud” or nothing. Imaging Resource brought it straight to the point: “It’s time to stop living under the illusion Adobe cares what you think”

time to seriously check out alternatives like Macphun and Capture One. I know they often do not the same thing as Adobe. But Macphun for example already promised that they are working on a Lightroom alternative.
