New Sony FE roadmap hints more fast primes. Sony says fast portrait lens is coming among them.

FE_roadmap

The German Journalist Martin Vieten got this updated German March FE lens roadmap. Unlike the English lens roadmap pdf from Photokina the new info is that Sony says that “fast primes” (yes plural!) are coming within 2015. A total of over 20 FE lenses should be available-announced by end of the end of this year. And Martin also share an unofficial info he got directly from Sony. One of the new fast primes should be a portrait lens (around 90mm).

My guess is that most of these primes will be announced by end 2015 but available from early 2016 only. What lens do you hope to get? My wishlist: 24mm f/1.4, 85 f/1.4 and 135mm f/2.0.

Full Zeiss 35mm f/1.4 FE lens review at SLRgear.

SLRgear (Click here) is the first site having published a full detailed review of the new Zeiss 35mm f/1.4 FE lens. They write:

Image quality from the new 35mm ƒ/1.4 lens is very good, with excellent sharpness — though being an ƒ/1.4 optic, there is some softness, especially in the corners, when shot wide-open. Other optical qualities such as CA and distortion control are also very good, and while vignetting is understandable strong at ƒ/1.4, it’s less of an issue at smaller aperture.

Overall, Sony has produced yet another very good lens for the A7-series cameras — a super-solid lens with excellent build quality, a nice feel and great image quality. Sure, it’s significantly larger, heavier and more expensive than the earlier FE 35mm ƒ/2.8 lens, but if you’re a professional or advanced enthusiast photographer in need of a superior low-light lens for the your full-frame Sony mirrorless camera, this is the one to consider.

The Zeiss can be preordered here:

in USA at Amazon, Adorama, BHphoto.

in Europe at Sony Germany, Sony UK, Sony FR, Sony IT, Sony ES, Sony NL, Sony BE, Sony AT, Sony CH, Sony SE, Sony FI, Sony NO, Sony PT.

in Asia/Australia at Digitalrev, Sony Australia.

What’s hot with the lens:

– The lens has super fast Direct Drive focusing

– Advanced Aspherical Lens

– Aperture ring with click or clickless switch

– It’s weather sealed
