SIGMA has announced a price revision for some of its products. The release date is May 27, 2024. All prices will increase from the current rates. The new prices will be effective from May 29, 2024.
The affected products belong to the Contemporary line, specifically the 'DC DN' lenses designed for APS-C image sensors and mirrorless cameras. The reasons cited include rising costs of raw materials, manufacturing, and logistics due to recent external environmental impacts.
