Tokina and Ricoh announced plans for new lenses at PMA

By PR admin | Published: February 22, 2010

Tokina announced plans for a new 16-28mm f/2.8 wide angle lens for full frame (source).

In 2010 Ricoh is planning to release a new P10 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 VC lens piece for the GXR system. This lens was reported as a rumor here over a month ago. The included sensor will be back-illuminated CMOS with 10MP (same as in the Ricoh CX3 camera). The other lens will be A12 28mm f/2.5 lens with manual focus, bundled with a 12MP APS-C sized CMOS sensor. One additional accessory will also be released (source).

Photorumors.com reprints news first seen on dpreview? Is that what Photorumors is all about?

I can’t wait for this. 12-24mm f/4 works really well at 18-24mm wide open on full frame already. It must be a killer lens if the price is right. There are many 24/28-70mm zooms to cover the longer F, and 16mm is wide enough.
