Just a speculation: What if Zenit is really going to launch an E-mount camera?
Back in April Zenit displayed this 50mm f/0.95 E-mount prototype lens. And I did post some image samples and hands-on review reports on SAR (Click here). But the past months we got no info about the possible release date of this lens.
But there is one major news posted via MR: Zenit announced they will launch a new Full Frame mirrorless system camera in 2018. On the forums I saw people speculating that Zenit might use Sony’s E-mount based on the fact they announced this 50mm E-mount lens back in April. I have no solid info on this but my best guess is that the Zenit will have a new kind of mount.
That said, I surely would like the idea to have a Zenit E-mount camera. I think there is a market for a well-built, manual focusing and low-cost FF camera. What do you think?
