Hey barkeep! Any news on the 25/.95?

[mabelsound]

Stephen and other CV insiders...any idea when this lens will get a price and ship date? I am getting some early-adopter jitters.

It's the new product that I am most looking forward to, as well...!!!

Elisa the girl i spoke to at the CV stand at photokina seemed to imply it was already available in germany and japan.

She kindly let me try the lens on the E-p1 - but tiredness and lack of inspiration only got me these shots

it certainly focuses close but weirdly it didn't seem to have a stop on the focus ring at the closest point

Yeah, odd there are no sample shots on Cosina's site yet. You'd think it would have CPU contacts too.

Those look great! I am really looking forward to seeing some more results from the wild.

Not yet.

Updated info will appear at CameraQuest when it becomes available.

I can tell you its generating an unusual amount of pre-release attention.

Man thats a cool lens, but I want to see like 3 focal lengths before I abandon the idea of saving for a digital M. It's going to be fun to see what the come up with.
