Sony is expected to announce new E-mount and possible A-mount lenses next week before the start of the PhotoPlus 2015 show. So this could be a good surprise for all Sony users especially if its for the A-mount system.
Sure there is no specs and price information for the bla but when we look at the adapted A-mount lens market current competitors are not cheap. The Canon 85mm f/1.2 price is around $2,000 and the manual focusing Speedmaster 85mm f/1.2 costs below $1,000. So the price with the autofocus version should be at the higher end.
On the other hand the company previously rumored to update the current 135mm f/1.8 and the 85mm f/1.4 prime lenses for A-mount cameras and improve the overall autofocus performance. Also according to previous Sony rumors, the sources mentioned early prototypes of the Sony FE 85mm f/1.4 lens.
Stay tuned for more information.
