Zeiss posted a new set of images shot on the soon to be announced new Batis tele prime FE lens. The Photographer Irwin Wong said this about the lens:

Great low light performance, which helped when I shot this bamboo grove in twilight.
I can’t tell you too much about it except that it is a telelens. What’s something that we all use telelenses for? That’s right, sweet, sweet bokeh. I think this lens will not disappoint in that regard, as you can probably see from this photo of some plum blossoms.

Here is an image that shows you the nice bokeh of that lens (Click on it to see large size version):

The lens should be a 135mm lens will the aperture could be f/2.8. But for sure I would be glad it would have a faster f/2.4 or f/2 aperture.

The lens will be announced by end of the Month. If I could guess the date it will be March 21 because usually Zeiss announces stuff on Tuesday. But thats’ just a guess.

DPreview  added the Fuji GFX studio samples. The camera uses the Sony 51MP medium format sensor. But despite the size advantage there doesn’t seem to be a big quantum leap over the Sony A7rII:

“In terms of high ISO noise, the GFX 50S performs fairly similarly to the Pentax 645Z and, as sensor size alone would lead you to expect: better than the Canon EOS 5D SR. However, because Sony’s a7R II sensor uses a more modern BSI design, it’s able to be more efficient, which means it’s able to close the gap to the bigger sensor cameras. “

As I stated many times I think Sony should use the much larger 55x41mm sensor if they ever are going to make a medium format RX or system camera. That should really give us a visible difference in both, quality and esthetic of the images.
