[/shoplink]
The eccentric Japanese Lens designer Mr. Miyazaki just released the new [shoplink 36037 ebay]MS-Optical Perar 21 mm f/4,5 MC Super Wide Triplet lens[/shoplink]. And the extraordinary thing of the lens is that it is only 5,2mm thick and weights 42g! It’s smaller than the [shoplink 34266 ebay]M to E-mount adapter[/shoplink] you will have to use on your E-mount camera. This makes it likely the smallest and lightest third-party Full Frame(!) lens you can use on your A7 cameras. Instead of using a cap on your camera you can simply put that lens on it and the camera will be always “ready” for a quick shot.
You can see the very first image samples and buy the lens at [shoplink 36037 ebay]BreguetCamera on eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
This is the third Perar lens from Mr. Miyazaki. The other two are the slightly thicker [shoplink 36038 ebay]24mm (here on eBay)[/shoplink] and [shoplink 36039 ebay]28mm (here on eBay)[/shoplink] lenses.

Too bad that it’s missing sample pictures.
Except that it isn’t .. (not fullsize though)
You’re right. I didn’t scroll enough. 🙂
If it doesn’t have a colour problem in corners… I really want this Lens. (Hopefully Sony releases something like the a5100 as a full frame version soon….)
There was a really bad corner problem with the 24 already, I don’t expect this to be any better. Only the 28 is actually usable on E-mount.
problably neither have problem on a7s
The third Perar lens indeed, but the fourth(?) MS-Optical as there is also the
MS-Optical Sonnetar 50mm f1.1 MC
At least the sixth actually. There was a 50mm f1.3 and a 35mm f3.5 (which was the first flat Triplet, IIRC).
Cool, love these hand made/designed things.
And a Sonnetar 25mm f/1.1 dedicated to Pentax Q, too.
And the images are actually from Japancamerahunter.com

(but i guess you’d prefer people buying it via your ebay referer.) *wink*
There are no image samples on Japancamerahunter! Only image samples I found are on eBay. Please send me the link to the image samples on Japancamerahunter if you find them
Sorry, i was only referring to the “Images via DSLRmagazine” text at the bottom of your post, there are indeed only small samples on the ebay page so far. 🙁
But that’s more than no samples. 🙂
$800 for this toy lens . . dayum. I mean I want it and all, but at that price I don’t think so.
Wow an $800 bodycap! And I thought Sony was expensive 🙂
This lens is for Leica users, they don’t care too much about price anyways…
hahahah, cool
Samples on an A7? Not great IQ but would love a cheap knock off version to use as a lens cap. Correct the distortion digitally and Sony can call it there cheap 24mm
you don’t need to, it’s more a fashion accessory rather than lens
And it just so happened Lomography released a similar lens today for pre-order and it’s alot cheaper. http://www.lomography.com/
No autofocus? No OSS?
Every wide-angle lens should have it. 🙁
Time to switch to Canikon…
Hmm… I wonder is there enough room inside a camera to use a collapsable Leica 50mm lens? If so it wouldn’t be quite as compact as this thing but would certainly give you a better photo and still provide the same manual only operation.
You still have to use the leica M to E adapter, which essentially turns the camera into a leica M, giving it plenty of room inside the body.
You have trouble focusing a manual 21mm f4.5 lens?
Yikes… I didn’t notice it was a f4.5 lens until you mentioned it… Then again considering the ability of an A7S to suck up light maybe the best option is to just tape some thick aluminum foil over the front of the camera and put a pin hole in it…. come to think of it… with a flange focal distance of 18mm on an e-mount your pinhole would be about 18mm and using a .3mm pinhole you would only have an f-stop of about 60… I think it might actually work.
Sorta like that Olympus body cap lens, except sixteen times the price! 😀

It’s the Leica version and priced accordingly.
It has aperture control and rangefinder coupling.
And no Tripod Collar ?!?
industar 69 – 3 times cheeper than the shipping cost?
This takes “Paying for less” to a whole new level.
Sweet corner performance! (sarcasm)
Great looking little thing. As for price. It is hand made. Its same as mechanical watch. You don’t buy it for performance. You buy it for its aesthetic value. And Leica as whole it usually for people who like expensive watches cars and suits 🙂 Also. I really would like to have such thing. Every so often to put it on camera and enjoy it.
and has 69 in the name 🙂
That’s the important part!
Attractive lens but optical quality is so so.
