Back in July, Sigma announced it was working to bring three of its DC DN lenses to Canon’s APS-C EF-M mount. Now, we have an official release date for the 16mm F1. 4, 30mm F1. 4 and 56mm F1.
4 lenses—October 18th.
An additional mount conversion service will also be offered for those who own the MFT or E mount versions of these lenses who would like them adapted for Canon’s M mount, according to a post on Sigma Global's website (translated). To start the conversion process, Sigma requests you contact your nearest authorized Sigma service center starting October 19.
The Canon M mount versions of the 16mm F1. 4, 30mm F1. 4 and 56mm F1. 4 lenses will cost $449, $339 and $479, respectively. These are the same as the list prices of the existing versions but don't attract the $50 price reductions currently available on the MFT and E-mount versions of these lenses.

Key Features and Benefits of the F1. 4 Mirrorless Trio
Sigma’s F1. 4 Mirrorless Trio, 16mm, 30mm, and 56mm F1. 4 DC DN Contemporary lenses, all benefit from a fast aperture of F1. 4 to achieve sufficient amount of bokeh and admirable brightness even with APS-C size cameras which tend to have smaller bokeh effects compared to 35mm full-size systems.
