Zeiss to produce lenses for Sony NEX and Fuji XF mirrorless system cameras
Zeiss announced on their blog plans to produce lenses for Sony NEX and Fuji XF mirrorless cameras. The first three lenses currently in development are 2.8/12, 1.8/32 and 2.8/50 macro. What to expect:
- All new Zeiss mirrorless lenses will have autofocus
- Zeiss lenses for X-mount will have also a manual aperture setting
- Priced at around EUR 1,000
- Shipping will start in early summer 2013
- The new lenses will be made in Japan
- For now Zeiss will not make lenses for Micro Four Thirds because... their sensor is too small (finally someone said it)
