OM Digital is set to announce a new telephoto zoom lens soon—but there’s one possibility that gives me real nightmares. What if, once again, it’s just a rebranded Sigma full-frame design?
There’s an unconfirmed rumor suggesting the upcoming OM lens might actually be a white-painted, OM-branded version of the Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8 full-frame lens—similar to what we saw with the OM 150-600mm, which turned out to be a rehoused Sigma.
Hopefully, this is just a bad dream—and we’ll soon wake up to see OM Digital unveil a truly original, high-performance lens, crafted in-house with the same level of excellence as the legendary 150-400mm PRO.
