Guinea pig, going to give it a try

I ordered a Songraw 50mm f/1.2 Moonlit lens. $759.05. Says up to 3 weeks for delivery so probably coming from China. Yes, they are new and this is their first lens. But from reviews I have seen and the price point, it should be worth it. 1/2 of the Sigma 50 f/1.2, and 1/3 the cost of Nikons 50mm f/1.2. I don't work for National Geographic, so the quality is probably on point for me.

B&H, Amazon and others show $999. But they are selling them on their site for $799 sale price, plus if you give them an email, they will give you a 5% code / discount. Free shipping.

The Voigtlander 40mm f/1.2 Nockton keeps distracting my attention lately. I want it, but I have 2 F-mount lenses to upgrade to Z-mount with more urgency.

Huh. That's a new company to me. Let us know what you think when you get it and have used it for a while, if you will. :)

It's a new Chinese company. The E version was their first lens. The z is their second mount of it. They also have an 85 version as well. From technical graphs, it shows it's just shy of the Sigma 50 f/1.2 in the E mount. But 1/2 the price of the Sigma. No tech data that I saw between it and the Nikon or Sony lenses though. But it's 1/3 of those price wise. It may also not focuse as fast as the Z or E lenses, but from the videos I have seen it's not a slouch and faster than my screwdriver D lenses by a bit.
