Sigma Corporation (CEO: Kazuto Yamaki) announces changes to the sales method for the SIGMA 14mm F1.4 DG DN | Art, due to the significant delays in delivery times.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience these changes may cause and kindly ask for your understanding as we strive to continue providing high-quality products and services.

Going forward, we will transition to a made-to-order system as follows.
