I don’t know who designed this lens but the Vietnamese site Keh.vn posted a review of the E-mount version of the new Zonlai 25mm f/1.8 E-mount lens. And the site mentions that the lens is available for X-mount and MFT too. The MFT version is already on sale on eBay (Click here).
Image samples shot on the E-mount version can be seen on Flickr.

Wow i can order from this site?
There appears to be an identical lens for Sony under the Kenro brand on eBay.

Thank you for the link. It’s apparently the same Zonlai brand (see pictures), Kenro being the name of the eBay seller (kenro-cn).
Finally some nice manual lenses at an affordable price point!
Can this cover a full frame sensor or only APS-C?
APS-C.
This explains why Panasonic had the promotion, selling their 25mm for $99. Smart move.
