Today Zeiss becomes 120 years old! Happy Birthday!

Zeiss has such an incredible history! An example: Did you know that Zeiss produced a Planar 0,7/50 mm Lens which has been used by Stanley Kubrick in „Barry Lyndon“? Zeiss Lenses have also been used by astronauts on the moon and for the “Lord of the Rings” movies.

What do I wish for the future?
1) More Sony Zeiss fast prime lenses of course!
2) Lower the price please
3) Make a digital Zeiss Ikon ZM :)

Hi!
I didn’t post a lot in this days. I have been really busy and I also had to transfer the SonyAlphaRumors website on a new server. I still have some job to do but I will start now to post the latest Sony rumors and news.
I had the chance to talk with some of my sources. I have a bad news and a good news. I will post them soon…
