L-Mount Alliance’s 2025: Leica at 100, Sigma Lenses, Panasonic Flagships!

In 2025 we got 17 new cameras and lenses in total. Big year! BHphoto wrote an article about this and listed all products:

• Sigma BF Mirrorless Camera: A radically minimalistic full-frame camera with an aluminum unibody, internal storage, and a single USB-C port. Its futuristic design impressed some, but lack of a proper grip drew criticism, prompting SmallRig to release a custom handle plate.
