This morning, Sigma announced its upcoming launch of lenses for the Fujifilm X mount camera system. Initially, three lenses — the 16mm f/1.4 DC DN, 30mm f/1.4 DC DN and 56mm f/1.4 DC DN — will be available. Sigma also plans to release the 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary lens, which is currently available for Sony E and L mounts, in December 2022.

Currently, the Sigma primes are available in four mounts — Sony E, Canon EF-M, Micro Four Thirds and L mount.

The three Contemporary primes feature a control algorithm with autofocus drive and communication speed optimization specifically developed for X mount lenses. In addition to realizing high-speed autofocus, the lenses also support AF-C and in-camera aberration correction on supported cameras. The mount is rubber-sealed to cater for use in a variety of environments.

The three prime lenses will be available beginning in April 2022. Pricing matches the other version of the lenses, at $449 for the 16mm, $339 for the 30mm and $479 for the 56mm.
