Sigma Patents Fast 24mm and 28mm f/1.2 Primes

Sigma filed patents covering optical designs for 24mm and 28mm f/1.2 primes — which, if they follow through, would round out a compelling fast wide-angle trio alongside the recently launched 35mm f/1.2 II. Patents don't guarantee production, so treat this as directional intel rather than a shopping trigger. That said, Sigma has been aggressive about executing their Art-series roadmap lately, so portrait and event shooters who've been waiting for a sub-35mm alternative to Sony's GM or Zeiss Loxia options should keep an eye on this.
