From minute 39 Sigma CEO Yamaki joined the podcast. Here are a couple of highlights:
- He doesn’t work with other manufacturers, they prefer to produce lenses in their own factory
- Sigma made no profit in past fiscal year due the increase of cost.
- Response of the market on the Sigma BF was way beyond his expectations
- Sigma 14mm f/1.4 lens is a niche lens only being produced in January and February
- Demand for L-mount lenses continuous to increase
