Ronkonkoma, New York–(Newsfile Corp. – February 24, 2026) – Sigma Corporation of America, the US subsidiary of Sigma Corporation (CEO: Kazuto Yamaki. Headquarters: Asao-ku, Kawasaki-shi, Kanagawa, Japan), is pleased to announce the launch of the Sigma AF Cine 28-105mm T3 FF as part of Sigma’s Cine Lens series.
Based on the optical formula of Sigma’s 28-105mm F2.8 DG DN | Art lens, the AF Cine 28-105mm T3 FF is perfect for solo operators and small-scale production teams who require autofocus capability, yet also want the specific features found in traditional cinema lenses.
