Sigma 35mm f/1.4 EX HSM and an updated 120-300 f/2.8 OS comming
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned it here.
Sigma announced a new 35mm f/1.4 EX and
an updated version of the 120-300mm f/2.8 EX OS.
More info
If the 35 is anything like the 85 it could be a winner. :thumb

I've been a huge fan of Sigma's venture into the full-frame fast prime world. I'm dying to see how this 35 1.4 EX performs...

Same here.
I just hope Sigma is more rational with their prices this time.
I'm guessing 1200 MRSP and 800-900 street price ... or at least I hope it's not higher ^^

Natural selection is responsible for every living thing that exists.
D3s, D500, D5300, and way more glass than the wife knows about.
Yes, one new thing about the lens is upgradable firmware. It is upgradable usiing a newly announced USB module so that the lens can be connected to a computer. There is also new software to use with the module to adjust the lens like you would with a microadjustment feature of a camera. There is also a different finish on th lens and a different tripod ring.

My wife's is sharp, but the focusing speed is rather slow.

Sigma always over-estimates their MSRP by a huge margin. With a suggested price of $4600, you might expect a $3-4K price tag. Or, just a couple/few hundred $$ more than the next older version I'd bet...
