Thanks to BHphoto (Click here) we now have the estomated shipping date for the third Touit lens, the Zeiss 50mm f/2.8 macro. It will ship form October 1.
Zeiss (Click here) posted an article about “How an extraordinary family of ZEISS lenses were developed“. They explain why they didn’t go Micro Four Thirds: “In order to stay true to the high quality standards of the ZEISS brand, it was decided to focus on cameras with an APS-C sensor“. Some new image samples shot on the Fuji X camera can be found at SystemKameraForum.

This doesn’t sound much different from any other manufacturer’s development process.
I would have been more interested in an article explaining how they decided to name them “Tweet”…
In other words, Zeiss doesn’t want to degrade their quality by doing low standard m43 system.
That’s about the same reason as to why I never want to touch micro sensor cameras 😀
