So they are now supporting the x mount w/ the complete line of lenses.

they have a 16/2…looks big though...

Huge, they look like they just screwed on adapters from the DSLR versions.

Not interested. Does anyone use these? Seems like they are not so popular.

While the lenses seem gigantic, I must say the 24/3.5 tilt-shift lens is very interesting to me.

I am inching closer to replacing my D700 bodies, my 16-35/4 and 17-35/2.8 Nikkor lenses for a set of XT-1 bodies with two Fujinon 10-12/4 lenses. The 24/3.5 TS lens just makes this more tempting.

I think there maybe some using the 8mm either under Sanyang or some other third party name. But for me, if I am going to use a manual focus lens it will be a Nikon or Leica. I would have rather have Sigma Art line available for the Fuji myself.

Anyway, just a heads up just in case others were interested.

Yes, that one could be cool to have.

I own the 7.5mm for my M43 kit with the 14mm and 500mm for my Canon 5D. They are, in my opinion, astonishingly good value and capable of results as good as much more expensive objectives.

This is the 14mm on my Canon 5D...
