New 28mm f/6.3 MoMo Soft Focus Lens on Kickstarter

Share

You know Yasuhara because of their rather unique Nanoha 5:1 Macro MFT Lens. They now launched a new Kickstarter project to finance their 28mm f/6.3 MoMO Soft Focus MFT lens:

Yasuhara a Japanese lens maker, just launched their MoMo Soft Focus Pancake Lens for digital cameras on Kickstarter. The MoMo Lens is based on the single meniscus lens used in the Vest Pocket Kodak (VPK) camera from 100 years ago. It is designed to achieve the same dreamy, soft focus pictures with the convenience of today’s digital cameras.
The soft focus on the MoMo Lens is set at F6.4, but users can adjust the aperture through F22 to control the power of its effect. MoMo Lenses will work with mirrorless and DSLR cameras. It will be available with mounts for Micro Four Thirds, Sony NEX, Canon-EF or Nikon F-Series, and eventually Canon EOS-M as well as Fuji X cameras. Further specifications provided below:

Chuck:I know you show videos made from M43 cameras. Here’s one I made with for our school. It’s about State funding so any publicity helps! If anything it’s at least cool to show for the TrackX features where I embedded video on the walls taken of the computers/iPads the students were using.

(FT4) There may be a delay with the first Olympus f/1.2 PRO lens announcement

Share

[shoplink 56524 ebay]50mm12[/shoplink] Image on top shows the [shoplink 56524 ebay]OM 50mm f/1.2 lens (here on eBay)[/shoplink]

We know from top sources that Olympus will launch a new 25mm f/1.2 lens this year. One of the sources told me that there could be a short delay with the lens announcement. The lens was expected to be announced this summer. Now the best bet for the announcement is September (Photokina).

But before that lens Olympus will definitely launch the already leaked 30mm f/3.5 macro lens.

Bit of history: Olympus OM system had two f/1.2 lenses: The [shoplink 56524 ebay]50mm f/1.2 (here on eBay)[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 56525 ebay]55mm f/1.2 (here on eBay)[/shoplink].
