Well, we knew Samyang had two new astrophotography-focused lenses on the way. One of those lenses, for full-frame Sony E mount cameras, has already been announced. That’s the Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 FE, which features a dedicated custom function button that allows you to zip straight to infinity focus in an instant.
The other lens, for APS-C Sony E mount, was suspected to be a shorter focal length and according to images posted to Weibo, it’s going to be the AF 12mm F2.0 E autofocus lens with a pre-order price of 3,099 Yuan (~$450). The images aren’t very big, but it looks like the 12mm won’t feature that same custom function button of the full-frame 24mm.
