Sigma’s 14mm f/1.4 Art Lens Rebrand

Sigma’s 14mm f/1.4 DG DN Art has been one of the most sought-after ultra-wide primes since its 2023 launch, but demand has so far outpaced supply. The company admits there have been “significant delays in delivery times,” and to address the issue Sigma is making some unusual changes. Starting September 4, the lens will no longer be sold in its current form. Instead, it is being rebranded as the Sigma 14mm f/1.4 DG Art, given a small exterior refresh, new packaging, and a higher price tag.

Originally priced at $1,599 (later bumped to $1,759 after tariffs) the lens will now cost $1,839. It will continue to be available in both Sony E and L-Mount versions, but only through a special made-to-order system. Customers will be able to place orders between September 4 and October 31, with deliveries scheduled to begin in March 2026. Sigma says there may be another order window later in 2026, but nothing has been confirmed yet. In the meantime, the company notes that whatever stock of the DG DN version remains on shelves is all that’s left.

Sigma emphasizes that this change doesn’t affect image quality or optical design. The 14mm f/1.4 DG Art will deliver the same performance as before, just with a new name and updated branding in line with the company’s recent design overhaul. Sigma says the price bump is due to higher raw material and shipping costs.
