Sigma to Announce New Fujifilm X-Mount Lenses on February 26 at CP+ 2026

According to Fujirumors, Sigma is expected to make a major announcement on February 26, 2026, which may include new APS-C lenses for Fujifilm X-mount. The announcement timing coincides with the CP+ 2026 show in Japan.

Sigma Fujifilm X-Mount Lenses

Sigma has been steadily expanding its Fujifilm X-mount lens lineup over the past couple of years, and this could be a significant expansion. While specific lens models haven’t been confirmed, the mention of APS-C lenses suggests Sigma may be adding dedicated crop-sensor options rather than just adapting their existing full-frame designs.

Tamron Link TL-01 Wireless Lens Control Accessory Announced, Available for Pre-Order

Tamron has announced the Tamron Link (Model TL-01), a new wireless accessory that enables Bluetooth control of compatible Tamron lenses via smartphone. Alongside the Tamron Link, the company has also released the Tamron Lens Utility Mobile app for iOS, expanding compatibility beyond Android devices.

Tamron Link TL-01 Wireless Accessory

The Tamron Link connects to a compatible Tamron lens and communicates wirelessly with your smartphone via Bluetooth 5.4, with a maximum range of 5 meters (16.4 feet). This eliminates the need for a cable connection between the camera and phone, giving photographers and videographers more flexibility on set.

The accessory works with the updated Tamron Lens Utility app (now version 5.0), which adds several new features including Focus/Iris Marker Link, Ring Stopper for preventing unintended adjustments, selectable focus and aperture rotation angles, Focus Time Lapse for interval shooting, Astro Focus Lock with fine adjustment, and a Night Mode that turns the screen red for low-light shooting.

7Artisans AF 135mm f/1.8 Lens Coming Soon for Sony E, Nikon Z, and Leica L Mount

7Artisans is preparing to announce a new AF 135mm f/1.8 full-frame prime lens at the 2026 CP+ show in Japan. The lens will be available in Sony E-mount, Nikon Z mount, and Leica L mount.

7Artisans AF 135mm f/1.8 Lens

The 7Artisans 135mm f/1.8 AF combines a classic portrait focal length with a fast f/1.8 aperture, delivering shallow depth of field and a natural compression effect that makes it ideal for portrait photography. The lens features a relatively short minimum focusing distance of 0.68m for a 135mm lens, allowing for tighter compositions and close-up detail shots.

The lens includes a physical aperture ring for intuitive exposure control, an AF/MF switch for quick focus mode changes, and a customizable function button that can be assigned to various camera functions. It appears to share a similar optical design with the well-regarded Viltrox AF 135mm f/1.8 LAB lens (B&H), which currently retails for $899.

Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD Lens Announced, Available for Pre-Order

Tamron has officially announced the 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A078), a new fast-aperture portrait zoom lens designed for Sony E-mount and Nikon Z mount full-frame mirrorless cameras. It will hit the shelves on March 26, 2026.

Tamron 35-100mm f/2.8 Di III VXD (Model A078)

If you’re familiar with Tamron’s popular 35-150mm f/2-2.8 Di III VXD (Model A058), think of this as its more portable sibling. The A078 trims the zoom range to focus on the sweet spot for portrait photography — 35mm to 100mm — while maintaining a constant f/2.8 aperture throughout the entire range. The result is a lens that weighs just 565g and measures only 119.2mm in length (Sony E-mount version), making it noticeably easier to carry around all day.

The optical design uses 15 elements in 13 groups, and Tamron says it delivers high resolution with rich, smooth bokeh — exactly what portrait shooters want. The VXD (Voice-coil eXtreme-torque Drive) linear motor provides fast and precise autofocus, which should help nail those fleeting natural expressions.

One nice touch: the minimum focusing distance at the wide end is just 0.22m (8.7 inches), giving you some real close-up versatility for tabletop and detail shots. The lens also features a unified 67mm filter size (consistent with many other Tamron lenses), moisture-resistant construction, and fluorine coating on the front element.

The lens is compatible with the TAMRON Lens Utility™ app, which lets you customize button functions and fine-tune AF behavior. Tamron also just released a new Tamron Link (Amazon) wireless accessory for remote lens control via Bluetooth.

This new lens is now available for pre-order at B&H/ Amazon.

TAMRON has announced the development of the 11-20mm F/2.8 Di III-A RXD, the company’s first Canon RF mount lens. Designed for APS-C sensors, this fast ultra wide-angle zoom lens will launch in 2024.

Covering an impressive focal range from 11mm to 20mm, the lens maintains a bright F/2.8 aperture throughout. This facilitates low light shooting and creative bokeh effects. Despite the fast specs, the lens retains a remarkably compact and lightweight construction.

TAMRON’s expertise in optics shines through with a sophisticated optical design that delivers superb image quality. Shoot wide open at 11mm with a minimum focus distance of 0.15m for unique perspectives. The quiet RXD AF motor provides fast, precise autofocus for stills and video.
