In a surprise move Sony US raised the price of the 135mm GM lens by $200! This  is the first time ever I see something like that from Sony. I am only guessing now but I think the China-US trade ware and new tariffs could bethe cause of that?

On a positive note: The big Sony camera and lens savings are back (Check them here at BHphoto). Also the Zeiss E-mount lens deals are back (Check them here at BHphoto).
