The image on top shows the package for a yet to be announced new Viltrox 55mm f/1.8 EVO AF Full Frame Z lens. I have bee told an E-mount version is coming too!

It is a sort of successor to the iconic Sony Sonnar T* FE 55 mm f/1.8 ZA lens. The Zeiss, now 12 years old, is still on sale today for over $1,000/€1,000 on BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, Fotokoch, FotoErhardt, Calumet, Clifton. The new Viltrox will cost less than half the price, probably have twice the image quality, and focus much faster. I hope to see some images of the lens INSIDE the box soon!

A Chinese photographer is testing the newSG-image 35mm f/2.2 FE AF lens and he wrote:

I quite like the third version of the engineering lens that Master Gu handcrafted; I take it with me almost everywhere. Not long ago, I went to the countryside for the winter solstice and even took some nighttime photos of the small town. Today, the fourth version of the engineering lens came off the production line for its final round of testing. It’s being fitted with the final product’s exterior components, and this should be what it looks like when it’s finally released.

A side-by-side photo of the 35mm/2.2 and the “out-of-stock king” Deeplight 25mm/1.8 APS-C silver.

You can see that although the 35mm 2.2 is full-frame, it’s only a tiny bit thicker than the 25mm. The photographer also wrote:

To achieve this level of detail, the designers’ hair has almost turned half white.

The lens will be announced soon for Sony E, Nikon Z and Leica L-mount. Here are some images samples and some more pictures of the lens:

Our reader Z.W (Thanks) sent us this image of an extremely beautiful and technically impressive 35mm f/2.2 autofocus Full Frame E-mount lens mounted on the Sony A7c. Z.W. told us the the official bundle probably includes a square lens hood, metal.

What you see on this images is a near final prototype version. I hope the image quality is decent and if that’s the case it will sell very well. Also because usually SG-images are extremely affordable (you can find them here on Amazon).

Brightin Star new 35mm f/1.4 Full Frame manual focusing lens is now available on Amazon for $159 (Click here) and on the Brightin Star store. I found no images of this lens on a Sony camera yet. Only got those images on the Nikon ZF and Sigma FP:

But the silver lens surely will look good on the Silver Sony A7cII.
