Zeiss CP.2 cine-lenses for AG-AF100, VG-10 etc
« on: September 08, 2010, 03:10:56 pm »

Carl Zeiss has announced versions of its Compact Prime CP.2 lenses in Micro Four Thirds and Sony Alpha (not NEX) mount, following the PL, Canon EF, and Nikon F versions. The targets I suppose are not teeny consumer cameras like the GH1, but more serious camcorders like the Panasonic AG-AF100, Sony VG-10, and maybe some Sony DSLRs starting with the A55.

The PL mount versions were already usable on m43 through adaptors (do not know about PL-to-alpha adaptors) so bothering with these suggests that Zeiss expects a significant market for these lenses on professional camcorders like the AG-AF100. Though at their high prices ($3,900 each mostly) "significant sales" might only need to be in the hundreds!
