RUMOR: Sony 14mm f/1.8 GM will cost 1600€ and “performs like a beast”

A source told me this (Thanks!):

The forthcoming SONY 14mm 1.8 will be 1600€.
It is a stellar lens, and performs (on the paper) like a beast, neat perfect.

UPDATE: The lens will be announced tomorrow (April 20) at 15:00 London time!
