Have you noticed it? Zeiss did not announce any new photographic lens in over three years!
Back on Apr 24, 2019 Zeiss announced their last lens, the Otus 100mm f/1.4. Their last E-mount lens was announced on Sep 27, 2018 (Batis 40mm F2 CF). They did announce some expensive Cine PL-mount lenses and they made some “noise” with their ZX1 camera, but that’s it. I wonder, has Zeiss given up doing “photographic” lenses for system cameras?
This would be a stunning news for a company that was founded in 1847 and made camera lenses since the 1890s:

Even the first camera lenses made by ZEISS in the 1890s stood out thanks to their ability to correct spherical aberrations, outstanding color reproduction, and their minimal distortion. © ZEISS
Last time I got a rumor about Zeiss the source told me they definitely abandoned the APS-C lens lineup. But I didn’t expect that they would also pause the Full Frame lens development. I was hoping they would launch a newly redesigned Otus lens lineup for mirrorless. I hope Zeiss will read my post and let us know if they are still alive and kicking :)
