Hey Guys,

just glancing over at the cameraquest site and notice this in the description of the 25/4...

"this gem of a lens is sadly discontinued, eventually to be replaced by a larger, more expensive rangefinder coupled lens."

Stephen do tell! Enquiring minds need to know...

Cheers,

Larger? That would be a shame. One of the best things about the 25 is its small size which makes for a truely portable setup.

Hi,

I sent Stephen an e-mail with regard to the arrival date of the new 25 f4 last week. He said that it would probably be around a six month time frame, any further news will be posted on his site if and when received.

Regards,

Perhaps it will be built in the style of the 40/1.4 and new 35/2.5 Pancake II. I really like the build quality, ergonomics and styling of these newer lenses. They cost more, though.

It's bigger, rangefinder coupled and LOTS more expensive!
