Small bad news: It will still take 1-2 months before Tamron will open the preorders in mid 2019 only. Which means lens might start to ship out in September-October only :(
The lens is listed with no pricing at BHphoto, FocusCamera and Adorama.
First a clarification: Viltrox has two different 85mm E-mount lenses:
The one tested on the video on top is the manual focusing 85mm f/1.8 FE you can find in Stock right now at Amazon US, Amazon DE, Amazon UK, Amazon FR, Amazon ES, Amazon IT.
Then we also have this newly announced 85mm f/1.8 FE autofocus STM lens you can preorder for $379 at BHphoto (Click here).
The deal we had a few days ago is back: The Sony Zeiss 55mm f/1.8 sells for 658 Euro only on Amazon Italy (Click here). That’s 150 Euro less than the next best price I found in Germany. Moreover you get 100 Euro back with the new cashback action!
Read the full details of the cashback action on the special Amazon Germany page (Click here), on that Amazon UK page (Click here) and Amazon FR (Click below the camera name).
UPDATE: You also get this Sony A6400 for 922 Euro at Amazon France (Click here).

Press:
Nearly one year ago, the Supreme Court ruled that out-of-state retailers must collect sales tax on internet sales. B&H found a way to eliminate the impact this ruling has on their customers. That’s why they’ve created “Payboo” to solve the sales tax impact for you.
