話說 Sigma CEO 山木和人都頗常接受訪問，而且也常常會說英文，在主流攝影器材品牌中，算是相當活躍於幕前的老闆。今次他是接受 Sigma Canada 自己人的訪問，而對談內容都相當正路，大家可看如下︰

比較受用家注意的，大概是 E-mount 鏡頭問題了 (時間 9:26)，因為很多 A7 系用家都期望，Sigma 能夠製造 FE 鏡頭 (最好是 Art 啦) 讓他們有更多選擇。而 CEO 就表示，他們是會製造 FE 等 E-mount 鏡頭，但到底是會改變設計，遷就無反相機 (又或更輕更細)，還是只把現有 DSLR 鏡改一改接環，目前就還有研究中，未能公開詳情。

值得注意一點是，山木和人強調他們推出了 MC-11 轉接環，重點是讓 DSLR 及 Sony 無反雙修的用家而設，甚至相信這個市場在未來依然會存在，大概是看準了單反 vs 無反，兩者其實各有各的價值，彼此無法完全取代吧。

另外還談及 Sigma 去年推出過電影鏡，CEO 表示其實有製作人曾用他們的鏡頭來拍片，因此可見其鏡頭有此潛力及質素，未來亦會繼續擴充，看來 Sigma 近年的發展頗不錯呢。

根據其 Youtube 描述，以下是不同時間在問的問題︰

0:22 – The Sigma ART series has been a huge success, what was the philosophy behind moving to the new Global Vision Series?
1:23 – The Sigma 24-70mm f/2.8 Art lens is about to start shipping. How long has that been in development at Sigma? How many prototypes do they go through? Did you ever try to make a Sigma 24-70mm f/2.0 Art?
2:24 – The Sigma 14mm f/1.8 Art lens is about to arrive. What’s the process like for building a lens design that has never been created before?
3:55 – It took new equipment to make the aspherical element for the 12-24mm Art. You were able to reuse it for the 14mm Art. Did you know that would work? Will you be able to use it on future lenses?
5:08 – Camera technology has evolved greatly over the last 100 years, but the way lenses work is very much the same. What do you see in the future of lenses?
6:34 – What was the reason behind entering the CINE lens market?
7:43 – There has been a high barrier to entry in the CINE market for true anamorphic lenses. Are anamorphic lenses a consideration for the future?

9:00 – What did you think of the Sigma ARTisan Series we shot with Canadian filmmakers?
9:26 – A lot of our customers are asking about the Sony E-mount. How are things looking for dedicated FE lenses in the future? Will they be unique designs or new mounts on the existing Global Vision Series lenses?
