According to the latest we have from the rumor mill, Sigma will announce Canon RF Mount lenses in February of 2024. It looks like Sigma will become the first third-party lens maker to offer lenses for Canon’s RF Mount officially.
Apart from this rumor, we have a different set of rumors from the rumor mill again. According to Canon dealers, four lenses for Canon’s RF Mount are coming – two for APS-C and two for full-frame. Although he didn’t know if it was coming from a third-party lens maker or Canon itself, so right now we cannot clearly say that these four lenses are coming from Sigma or any other third-party lens maker planning to introduce four lenses by the beginning of 2024.
TNC Take: Sooner or later we will have a third-party lens for Canon RF Mount, its Canon’s way of bringing things late but stable and perfect. So, just wait a little more and we will have them.
