The favorite, Laowa (Venus optics), intervenes in this race.
Argus line with 0,95 aperture has been announced. Incl. 35 and 45 mm for full frame.
And the price tag is around $ 900

They have not been announced. There was no announcement yet and there was no data on the lenses either.
Laowa's level of optical design will be more interesting.
Therefore, a competitive battle is coming to the delight of the consumer.
You look, and the price of Mitakon will move ...
The scheme is a variation on the Herzberger lens or Planar 1: 0.7. Long Planar with a collecting system at the back. True, the “unique original” used a thick lens as a “speed booster”.
Laowa 35mm / 0,95 optical design for full frame

A very conservative estimate.
I advise you to look.
Well, as I understand it, this is a lens for those who like to “improve” the picture with a swirling box at a high price - well, because the audience is a drinker.
But the original mitacon / jongui 50mm f0.95 III version itself - won in comparison with Laova Argus 35mm - and significantly. See an overview from Camera Conspirasies
