I read somewhere on another forum that there is a new 12mm Zeiss Hologon to go with the new SW camera but for the life of me cant find where I read it. Is this true or did I just imagine it?
 
I believe it's the 2.8/15 Distagon.

Anyway a Hologon is no fun to use: fixed aperture, severe light fall-off without the centre ND filter which takes off even more speed.
 
the 16mm is fantastically expensive. Can't even imagine to what heights they would put the 12.

This is the "masthead" on the Zeiss site, shown with the Distagon.

The Cosina 15/4.5 is reputedly miles ahead of the 16/8 G-Hologon. I don't think a 12/8 Hologon would look good compared with the Cosina 12/5.6 either.
