Tokina promises to launch five new E-mount lenses in 2020!

Share

Today Tokina issued a press release to inform about the development of five new lenses for the E-mount system

  1. 35mm f/1.8 Full Frame E-mount
  2. 50mm f/1.8 Full Frame E-mount
  3. 23mm f/1.4 APS-C lens for Sony E
  4. 33mm f/1.4 APS-C lens for Sony E
  5. 56mm f/1.4 APS-C lens for Sony E

The APS-C lenses aren’t coming as a big surprise. These exact same lenses have been announced a couple of months ago by Viltrox :) And we know Tokina 85mm f/1.8 FE  and Viltrox 85mm f/1.8 FE share the same optical design (article here).

All lenses are expected to have autofocus. The APS-C lenses will be released in Summer and the Full Frame lenses in autumn.

RUMOR: Sony A7IV coming this year and Sony A7rIV low resolution shooting mode in the works?

Share

A source shared some tidbits about Sony and Zeiss:

About Sony he said:

Sony representatives mentioned that we should expect the a7IV later this year and NOT at the CP+
A different Sony representative mentioned that they are actively working on allowing a7RIV shooters to shoot at lower MegaPixels. He mentioned that it’s been one of the highest requests, so they’re working on it.

About Zeiss he said:

Zeiss expects their ZX1 camera early summer or late spring. They also might consider developing more lenses for E-mount, but they still considered the 40 to be new, so not sure about that.
