Today at the CES show in Las Vegas Sigma announced two new lenses for Nikon F-mount: 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM and 120-300mm f/2.8 DG OS HSM. Full specifications available on PhotoRumors.
In approximately 24 hours Nikon will have their announcement at the 2013 CES show for the Nikon 1 J3, S1, two 1 Nikkor lenses and probably the introduction of the D5200 in North America. I do not expect any other surprises for tomorrow. The official announcement should happen at, or around, midnight EST on Monday. I think some “more interesting” products will be released during the CP+ show in Japan (January 31 – February 3). Stay tuned for detailed coverage.
