Every time I kept the news of photography for you together, I cannot help, but the miracles in the never -ending stream of announcements. So many lenses roll in the week after a week! And in the last seven days, a lot of piles have been added from them. Just portrait lenses are so many today that it is difficult to keep an eye on them all. One who really attracted my attention this week was Sigma’s new 135 mm F/1.4 (Bokeh) demon. If my picture themes knew that I am using such an unusual lens, I wonder if it would change their expressions?

Tamon announced the development of a superzoom
It is not crazy as a 20–200 mm lens of Sigma which was declared today, but Tamran is apparently working on 25–200 mm f/2.8–5.6 G2.

Tamon says it will be available for Sony E in this autumn, and some more details have been announced. Press releaseBut pricing is unknown for now.
