Venus Optics launched two new Cine E-mount Lenses

Share

Xitek reports (google translate)

  • 15mm T2.1 for Sony Full Frame (Price: 7980 yuan)
  • 9mm T2.9 APS-C E-mount lens (Price: 3980 yuan)

Venus Optics writes (google translated text):

These wo lenses all have ultra-wide viewing angles, which can be more shocking in the creation. The large aperture design can bring greater light flux, which can ensure the purity of the picture in the shooting of specific scenes. In addition, these lenses have excellent close-up ability, which is conducive to the dramatic exaggeration of the picture. And these three lenses all adopt the design of low distortion or even “zero” distortion, which can reduce the correction work in the later period.

RUMOR: The new Tamron lenses will be “exciting” for the Sony Alpha Rumors community

Share

Now this is funny: A reliable source told me that the new Tamron lenses coming this year will be “exciting for the Sony Alpha Rumors community“. I asked him what exactly this means and he said that Tamron is aware that SAR readers weren’t that much happy with the f/2.8 primes. The new lenses will be more appealing for our readers and he also told me some of these lenses would be actually have the specs readers requested.

For obvious reason the source couldn’t share the specs of the three lenses….yet. But My guess is that this means some of these lenses might be FAST primes and 1-2 of them may be long tele zoom. My guess is based on the comments you left in the past months…

Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 FE review by Admiringlight: “outstanding for an ultra-wide zoom lens”

Share

Admiringlight tested the Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 FE lens and concluded:

The Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 DG DN is not a cheap lens at $1,399 US, but it manages to justify that cost and then some, producing some of the highest image quality I’ve ever seen at these focal lengths. Truly exceptional image sharpness, even at 14mm, with outstanding color and contrast, great flare control, virtually non-existent chromatic aberration and an outstanding build quality make this lens not only outstanding for an ultra-wide zoom lens, but outstanding for an ultra-wide prime lens.

Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 FE at Adorama, BHphoto, Amazon, FocusCamera, Henrys. In EU at Calumet DE, ParkUK, WexUK.
