First leaked Sigma 12mm f/1.4 APS-C E-mount lens images!

Share

Here are the first images of the new Sigma 12mm f/1.4 APS-C E-mount lens. It comes along a “bad” news. In very last minute Sigma postponed the announcement of this lens for unknown reasons. It should have been launched next week on June 17 along the new 17-40mm f/1.8 APS-C E-mount lens (which I leaked on this post).

I also have some pricing info about both lenses:

  • 17-40mm lens will cost 999 Euro and 1650 AUSD
  • 12mm f/1.4 will cost 1090 AUSD

Again, 17-40mm lens is coming on June 17 while at this point I don’t know if and when the 12mm lens will be announced…

German company Rollei is back and announced a new 85mm f/1.8 Full Frame E-mount AF lens

Share

The German company Rollei is back in the lens business and they announced a new 85mm f/1.8 lens you can preorder for 299 Euro. Rollei is also an official partner of Viltrox, so I don’t know if this is a revised version of the Viltrox 85 mm f/1.8 or if it includes some new optical design elements. What do you think?

Product highlights:

🔸 85 mm portrait focal length – natural proportions without distortion
🔸 F/1.8 aperture – sharp at open aperture and soft, round bokeh thanks to 11 blades
🔸 VAF series – high resolution for mirrorless full-frame cameras
🔸 HFT-X coating – reduces ghosting and flare, maintains contrast
🔸 STM autofocus – fast, quiet + face/eye tracking for photos and videos
