At photokina 2012 in September of last year, SLR Magic showed off some of their latest lens designs for mirrorless systems. Among these was the 35mm T1.4 for Micro Four Thirds, Sony NEX and Fuji X. We have recently gotten hold of a review unit of this lens for the Micro Four Thirds system and I was able to spend some time with it and to collect some first impressions.

First a Ferrari, and now beer. What on earth does this have to do with photokina? Well, every day at 3 p.m. the guys from Peak Design (read more on their awesome products below) were giving out Freibier. This was their PR strategy, and you can bet it was well received!
This is part six of our photokina 2012 report, with a main focus on SLR Magic, the small lens maker from Hong Kong that has come up with a lot of amazing products in the last two years. Beside an exhaustive report on SLR Magic’s new lenses, the following companies and/or products are featured in this post: Alpa, B.I.G. Photo, Fotoman, the Impossible Project, Lensbaby, Peak Design, the Plustek 120 film scanner, Rollei, and SanDisk.
