New L-mount add-on...

[Emanuel]

It's Sirui the 5th brand to join the L-mount alliance, after all... just announced:

And a fast lightweight tele is the 1st one to arrive...

Interesting…

Fairly soon, I need to invest in a few small light primes, specifically for full frame 6k video for my S9.

Sirui might just be a little too late to the party however because I am looking at the Lumix 18, 50 and 85 which can all be had at decent used prices and are actually available.

I hate mixing brands for this kind of thing and if they were launching a trio of maybe 24/50/85, I might have been more interested, but with only an 85 announced…

It's very nice to see more companies joining the L-Mount Alliance, but I really, really, REALLY like those Lumix f1/8 primes and it's hard to justify getting any others, especially with how affordable they are on the used market. 

Now if someone released super affordable and compact f2.5 primes I'd be all over those, no matter who made them, especially if I end up getting the S9.

So it wasn't Dji making a L mount camera after all?
