We knew there would be no real new mirrorless product at the CP+ show that starts today in Yokohama. But instead we have lot of mockups and a new Sony roadmap!
Olympus shows pictures of a new pro Zuiko lens (no details given). Sigma shows a prototype of a 30mm f/2.8 (macro?) lens for NEX. And Sony unveiled the E-mount lens roadmap:
Carl Zeiss lenses (scheduled for release in 2011, focal length: 24mm)
Telephoto zoom lens (available in 2011, focal length :55-200mm)
Macro lens (scheduled for release in 2011, focal length: 30mm)
Lens – Portrait (scheduled for release in 2011, focal length: 50mm)
G – High-performance standard zoom lens (available 2012)
Zoom wide (scheduled for release in 2012)
Medium Telephoto Lens (available 2012)
The Sigma lens for NEX

my guess (hope/dream) is that this is an E-P3 with 21mm f1.0
Where is the roadmap?
If that 30mm f/2.8 is Sigma´s great outing plan for NEX system, it makes absolutely no sense. What a lame excuse for a lens.
Now it’s there:)
30mm macro for NEX is a bit of a bummer. Why not make a 30mm f/1.4 lens instead? I’d much rather have a “fast fifty” equivalent than a f/2.8 or slower macro. Seems like 30mm is a bit short for macro anyway. 60mm would be better.
Sigma have been assembling best friendly SLR lenses for almost 40 years that are well-known for their valued optical performance, innovative & modern design and build quality, Sigma lenses produce exclusively in Japan.
That’s rellay thinking at a high level
