Certainly a very impressive trio of lenses they've released today. Sigma really are the lens company that dares to make what others only dream of.
Of course, these two will be well beyond my budget but I'm sure they'll be fantastic.

Considering that the 35mm F1.2 Art is my all time favourite lens, there is no chance I'd pass up on it's successor. I know, the Viltrox F1.2 LAB is also a very impressive lens, but they haven't announced it for L mount yet and ultimately, I have some positive feelings towards Sigma (being reasonably priced and high quality while still continuing to manufacture in Japan) and I just wanna support them.
The 135 F1.4 also looks like a top class lens but since one of my main subjects, my wife, wasn't too happy with the rendering on the 105 F1.4 - she said it renders her body proportions unflatteringly - I ended up selling that lens and I don't think 30 mm more tele is gonna help to convince my wife.

Wives are never happy with the portraits their husbands shoot of them - wrong lens, wrong place, technique: there will always be something wrong
Oooh, I really want the 35. But, I’m taking delivery of a Rivian on Friday. Gulp. Need to watch my spending for a while...
