Just got this image. It shows a Zeiss Loxia (50mm?) on the Sony A7r! The new 50mm and 35mm f/2.0 Loxia could be announced tomorrow (or Tuesday). No idea how much they will cost yet.
Share it where you want and be nice…link back to me please 😉

Nice 550$ the lens and 550$ supplement for the blue logo on the sunshade. Let’s wait what the budget has to be for it? Without AF and minimum electronics it should be more pricey, but with Zeiss, no one really knows. Blue or red marks on cameras and lenses or stars and angels on cars cost often a lot of useless money.
Have you ever used a lens with blue or red mark? Sure they come at premium, but the feel great to use and they deliver quality you expect. I say – great to have that option too. There is plenty of cheaper yet very good glass for those who have different priorities, needs or budgets.
Some people drive a Mercedes or a BMW when a Kia or a Hyundai will get you there.
Both “red” and “blue” lenses offer the same advantage – excellent engineering, precision manufacture, and the intangibles of ownership – not to mention exceptional
image quality in difficult situations. Pay your money, take your choice.
