Sorry for the bad joke guys, it isn’t the NEX-FF or a new A-mount Full Frame. What’s in Stock for the first time is the [shoplink 21164 ebay]Hasselblad Stellar on eBay Germany (Click here)[/shoplink]. They do ship worldwide if you want! Found via DealsRunner.com

I hope Hasselblad can go back to what they can really do fine, great cameras like the [shoplink 21165 ebay]Hasselblad 503cw[/shoplink] for example. Make them with a large Sony medium format sensor. That would be something don’t you think?

[shoplink 21147 ebay]The Full Frame 85mm T1.5 Cine Lens for NEX[/shoplink]

–

If you are considering to buy the soon to be announced NEX-FF cameras you will certainly look for compatible lenses. And you may don’t knwo that there are alreayd four E-mount FF lenses from Samyang (also branded under other names). These are Cine-Lenses with manual focusing. But there is an “problem” and one “qestion”. These lenses are very big and we also have to see if they are good enough for a high resolution FF sensor. Anyway, here are the links to the lenses (Click on them to see price):

14mm T3.1 Cine Lens for Sony E sold as [shoplink 21135 ebay]Samyang (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21136 ebay]Rokinon (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21137 ebay]Bower (eBay)[/shoplink].
24mm T1.5 Cine Lens for Sony E sold as [shoplink 21138 ebay]Samyang (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21141 ebay]Rokinon (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21142 ebay]Bower (eBay)[/shoplink].
35mm T1.5 Cine Lens for Sony E sold as [shoplink 21143 ebay]Samyang (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21144 ebay]Rokinon (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21145 ebay]Bower (eBay)[/shoplink].
85mm T1.5 Cine Lens for Sony E sold as [shoplink 21147 ebay]Samyang (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21146 ebay]Rokinon (eBay)[/shoplink], [shoplink 21148 ebay]Bower (eBay)[/shoplink].

It would be nice if NEX-VG900 owners could tell us more about the photoquality of the lenses!

A message for Samyang: If they would keep this specs to make a dedicated more compact (and non cine) lens for the NEX-FF system it would be a hotseller!

And now the bad news:
Our reader Jim just received the following bad news from Sigma when asking about the 18-35mm f/1.8 A-mount lens release:

“Unfortunately, our parent company has needed to delay the release of this lens in all mounts but Canon.  We are still waiting for the Nikon version, which should be next.  As of right now, we are expecting the Sony and Pentax versions of this lens to be released in mid-late November.  This could always change, but that is the expected release as of now.
