Zhongyi Optic's latest lens is the Chuichi Kogaku Speedmaster 20mm f/0.95, an ultra-fast, manual focus, mirrorless lens designed for Nikon, Canon, Sony, and Fujifilm APS-C cameras that suspiciously shares a lot in common with its 20mm T1.0 Mitakon lens.
Chinese lens manufacturer Zhong Yi Optics has announced the Mitakon Creator 28mm f/5.6 lens, a $299 recreation of the Leica Summaron M 28mm f/5.6 which the company says has a "faithful adherence to the original lens characteristics while maintaining an affordable price for photographers".
Chinese lens manufacturer Zhong Yi Optics has announced the Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm T/1.0 Cine Lens, designed to be part of a lineup of Micro Four Thirds cine lenses.
Zhong Yi Optics has announced the Mitakon Turbo Adapter II for Nikon Z-mount, which takes M42, Canon EF, or Nikon F-mount full-frame lenses and adapts them for use on Nikon Z APS-C cameras and widens the angle of view to more closely mimic their focal length on full-frame bodies.
Zhong Yi (ZY) Optics has announced that the mirrorless Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 lens originally launched for Sony E-mount, Canon RF-mount, and Nikon Z-mount (and later came to Leica M-mount) is now available for Leica L-mount. It is the first-ever f/0.95 lens that has been produced for L-mount.
Two years ago there were rumors floating around that the Meyer-Optik-Görlitz Nocturnus 50mm f/0.95 was just a very expensive rebadge of the Mitakon Zhongyi Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 that was supposedly assembled in Germany and therefore priced higher around $2,000+.
The Chinese company ZY Optics has just announced the Zhongyi Mitakon Speedmaster 35mm f/0.95 Mark II, an improved version of the original manual focus lens.
Shenyang-based camera lens manufacturer Zhongyi is taking to Facebook to give a sneak peek of its latest creation, a Mitakon 25mm f/0.95 pancake lens for Micro 4/3 cameras. The new lens will be one of the fastest lenses available for the system: matched only by Voigtlander's Nokton series of f/0.95 lenses. The Mitakon looks to have the edge with a more affordable product in a much smaller package.
