First leaked image of the new Sony 28-70mm f/2.0 GM lens?

Share

An anonymous source just sent me this image of the 28-70mm f/2.0 GM lens. I have yet not been able to confirm if this is real or not. What do you think about this?

Hard to get a real idea of the size of this lens with the had cut off. That “FE 2” looks a bit overblown…don’t know if it’s because it’s a prototype or because of a weird compression-angle from the JPG image. Maybe some of my trusted sources can confirm if this is the real deal or not?

Officially announced: New Viltrox 135mm f/1.8 lens now available at BHphoto for $899

Share

Viltrox has officially announced the 135mm f/1.8 FE LAB lens. You can pre-order the lens at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here). Full press text on Explora (Click here).

The new Viltrox 135mm f/1.8 lens is part of Viltrox’s LAB series, designed to provide high-end performance at a more accessible price point than many other premium lenses. This 135mm f/1.8, compatible with Sony E-mount, is intended as a budget-friendly competitor to the Sony 135mm GM lens, retailing at $899—significantly less than Sony’s version. With an 82mm filter thread, a close focus distance of 70cm, and weighing about 1.2kg, this lens aims to offer strong optical quality and build.

The LAB series, newly launched by Viltrox, promises “pro-level” performance, similar to Zeiss’s Otus line, but with a focus on balancing quality with affordability. Although specific reviews are still emerging, expectations are high for sharpness and accurate autofocus in portrait and event photography settings. This lens rounds out an expanding line from Viltrox, who has recently been adding more high-performing autofocus options at competitive prices, hoping to appeal to both amateur and professional photographers looking for value without sacrificing quality.
