While Meike was launching this probably good lens, the 4/3 system began to die. Now all that remains is to buy this system for Chinese manufacturers, I anticipate that sooner or later it will be so, of course, if someone wants to buy a dead system, maybe especially for the domestic Chinese market ...
Well, the other day only the announcement of the Panasonic G100 was. Are you specifically talking about Olik
So Olik in late May filed a patent for full-frame lenses (https://photowebexpo.ru/news/Olympus-patentuyet-polnokadrovye-objektivy) and a new camera registered the other day (https://photowebexpo.ru/news/Olympus-IM022-novaya-bezzerkalnaya-sistemnaya-kamera-so-smennoy-optikoy) and immediately announced the closure of the photo business. According to my feelings, Nikon will be next to Olik.
Sorry Olika
And today, Olik himself updated the roadmap on lenses. And there was added a new, past wide-angle zoom. There is some incomprehensibility with olik
And what incomprehensibility? There, Pentax already twice outbid. Wait and see. Now there is a global economic crisis. And smartphones are stepping on the heels of cameras. Photo business will not work at a loss. Now there will be a major restructuring in this direction.
At CP + 2019, they showed the camera from Yangnuo to m43, I would have fussed in place of the Yangs and bought Olympus)))
The Chinese are quite smart and prudent people who have a special relationship with Laovians and Japanese. I am sure of their prudence.
Sorry, but, Twicecrop - amen. It's just a matter of time.
It is on sale there, I came across reviews, but it did not reach us and, it seems, will not reach us anymore. Also, lenses for EF mount.
I was promised her a review, but then something went wrong
Looks like a door peephole
And yes, there is also Rokinon 85 1.4 manul for $ 400 released.
Here's a review of a similar 4mm / F 2.8 lens: m43photo.blogspot.com/2020/01/laowa-4mm-f28-fisheye-fun-and-nice.html
Laowa is usually a cut above Meike :). They generally have unique solutions.
