Samyang managers told at Focus Numerique that they could make Micro Four Thirds lenses with autofocus. But they have yet not decided if they do it because the market is rather small.

The new lens is abailable for preorder at BHphoto, Adorama and WexUK. This is kind of a unqiue lenses as it has three different 28mm lenses on one single mount. You can rotate them to get three different Twist, Velvet, and Sweet effects.

Press text:

Don’t waste time pulling a lens out of your bag or swapping optics with the Lensbaby Trio 28mm f/3.5 Lens. This pancake-style lens incorporates a rotating front that holds Twist, Velvet, and Sweet optics for selecting different effects at a moment’s notice. The Twist uses a true Petzval design for a sharp center area surrounded by a swirl of twisty bokeh. Velvet has a dreamy central area with a soft focus look along with a soft glow. Sweet creates a sharp spot of focus in the center with a gradual fall-off to blur. And, all of these can be carried without stuffing your bag with a variety of miscellaneous equipment.

Available here for Fujifilm X-mount cameras, the Trio will provide a 42mm equivalent field of view that provides a normal perspective for working in a wide range of shooting conditions. Also, it has a fixed f/3.5 optic that ensures predictable looks in a variety of situations. All of the optics are multi-coated for minimal flare and ghosting and it has a manual focusing ring for focusing anywhere form 8″ to infinity. Additionally, users can attach filters using the front 46mm thread for even more creative control.

Works with APS-C cameras where the normal 42mm perspective that can be used to capture a variety of subjects, including street, portraits, landscapes, and more.

I was told by a source that the reason there are different names is because some regions want to be able to distinguish the local official model from the grey import easily. So with different model number for each region, you can easily tell if the camera is from local official distribution channel.

I believe the solution creates more problems than it wants to solve…
