Earlier this week, Sigma announced the #SigmaShotatHome photo and cine contest. From April 6th through June 26th, participants can submit their best photos and short films. The theme is life at home during the quarantine. Participants can win weekly and monthly cash prize.
As our readers know, Sigma is a fav lens brand for Sony shooters. I’m usually carrying glass like the 35 with me.
We are in the midst of an unprecedented moment in history that has dramatically impacted the heart of the creative imaging community,” says Mark Amir-Hamzeh, President, Sigma.
#sigmashotathome is a humble attempt to bring inspiration to a very difficult situation. Above all, Sigma wants to remind creators, regardless of stylistic choices, field or gear preferences, that we are in this together.
After that, each week, a panel of Sigma professionals will judge entries based on creativity, originality and adherence to the theme. Then the panel will select a winner to receive a $500 American Express gift card.
After that, a monthly winner will be chosen from the pool of weekly winners to receive a $1000 American Express gift card. An overall contest grand prize winner will receive a Sigma fp + 45mm F2.8 DG DN Contemporary lens. Similarly, a second place contest winner will receive a Sigma lens valued at $1000 or less.
