Just cam back from a climbing trip in the dolomites and there are already new leaks! Those are the fullsize images of the upcoming three E-mount lenses. Click on the images to enlarge. As I already told you the Zeiss 24mm f/1.8 will cost around $999, the 55-210mm f/4-6.3 OSS will cost $299 and the 50mm f/1.8 OSS will cost $349.

There is also a nice size comparison (Thanks PaulPI!):

On top you can see the very first (real!) design of the new LA-EA2 adapter with built-in translucent mirror! As you see the adapter is quite BIG. It allows the use of the phase detecion autofocus with 15 AF points! As I already told you weeks ago the adapter will cost around $400. My guess is that the adapter is partiularly welcome by filmmakers that want to use the Alpha mount lenses on the [shoplink 6170]NEX-FS100[/shoplink] and other future E-mount camcorders.

The current LA-EA1 adapter is much cheaper (around $150) but autofocus is slow. Check the price and specs of the LA-EA1 at [shopcountry 8114].

While we are all waiting for Sony and Zeiss to release new high quality lenses Samyang is not resting at all. After releasing that 35mm f/1.4 super quality and super cheap manual lens they now announced first on facebook than on their website that their next lens will be the 24mm f/1.4 fast wide angle! It will have 13 elements (in 12 groups) including four ED elements and two aspheric lenses. The Samyang 24mm should be in Stock by end of this year with Nikon, Canon, Pentax, Samsung NX, Sony Alpha and Four Thirds mounts.

Those are the two current Rokinon/Samyang lenses I recommend to you:
1) The 35mm f/1.4: In US you can find it as Rokinon at Amazon (Click here), Adorama (Click here), BHphoto (Click here) and on [shoplink 7453 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. In Europe the name is Samyang and you can find it on [shoplink 7380 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink] and with the name Wallimex again on [shoplink 7831 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
2) The 85mm f/1.4: You can get for $274 on Amazon (Click here), branded with the name Rokinon on [shoplink 7456 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink] and branded with the name Samyang on [shoplink 7454 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].

Noooo! Incredible! Here it is the very first A77 commercial! That looks sexy! The lens on the video should be the [shoplink 8105 ebay]Zeiss 135mm (Click here to see that lens)[/shoplink]. But that lens isn’t dust proof :(
Before it gets removed download it and upload it to your own youtube channel. That will allow us to have enough backups :)
