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.

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.
