First image of the new Kase 85mm f/1.4 FE AF lens
At the Cp+ the Chinese company Kase did display a prototype for a new 85mm f/1.4 Full Frame E-mount autofocus lens. The lens has a declickable aperture. We already have fifteen 85mm primes according to this BHphoto list. So I don’t think we really need this one?
