Sigma has announced a new diagonal fisheye lens that is sure to make ripples in the market and will have APS-C users reaching for their wallets. If this prime lens lives up to the name that Sigma has made for itself with their other APS-C lenses it sure to be a solid seller. Sigma has some tough competition however as Tokina have recently announced their 11-16mm f/2.8 zoom which will take a little glory away from Sigma’s prized 10-20mm f/4-5.6. More information on the new 10mm 2.8 fisheye can be found on Sigma’s Website.
