The Schneider Kreuznach AF 14-24mm f/2.8 FE was developed in co-operation with Samyang (which is also the manufacturer of this lens in Korea). There is no information yet about the price and availability of this lens (except of a general 2025 note). But we have at least some pictures showing it mounted on the Sony camera:

And first image samples shot with this lens can now be found at Lenstip (Click here).

I just realised that not a single SAR reader has pre-ordered a single Zeiss link through my affiliate links. And in general, store managers told me that reorder numbers were extremely low. I suspect there are a number of reasons for this:

• These lenses are expensive lenses with manual focus.
• Meanwhile, there are many extremely good lenses that cost less or/and have autofocus (like the Sony 50mm GM or the Sigma 50mm lens).
• Some said these are just Cosina lenses with a Zeiss logo on them. While I suspect Cosina makes these lenses, I’m pretty sure Zeiss is behind the design of these lenses.

I would ask you to comment on this post and let Zeiss know why you have not reordered the new OTUS FE lenses.
