Sony re-introduces the Carl Zeiss 24mm F/2, and lifts the veil on a couple new additions to the Sony lens lineup, the 85mm F/2.8 (weird combo) with plastic mount, and the 35mm F/1.8 (Nikon inspired) also with a plastic mount.  The two lenses are known as “easy choice” lenses, I suppose because they’re cheap!  I’ll estimate the US price at around $250-300 for the easy choice lenses.  The special use Carl Zeiss 24mm will more than likely sell for about $1600, an awful lot these days, so let’s hope it’s really good.

I’ll have a review of these lenses when they come out, which is supposed to be this fall.
