Little pricey is an understatement.

So how do you focus the damn thing? (apparently the aperture is fixed, I kind of see that)
Anyhoo, I'd probably take the Canon 24/40 'cakes instead of such stuff.

"Look at that Bokeh! It’s round, it’s creamy, it’s soap bubbly"........ not another one!

"Stealth. The barrel is black and completely untagged".........another manufacture's saving?..

"We expect to be able to make 10-20 lenses per year"......... .........even on a planet where seven billion people live?......statistically realistic I'd say!

........."towards the image corners, a drop-off in sharpness may be noticeable, as well as soft vignetting"........so a poor lens!

......and I suppose that is the nearest we will get to a technical specification.

Minimum pledge: 4000 €.......????

May the Lord have mercy upon our souls!

It's 1200. 4000 is a bundle with a 50/0.75 lens or something (WTF?)
Not that 1200 is any better in the practical sense. They misplaced a decimal point there. Smile But even at 120, the Canon 40/2.8 STM still beats this.


RE: New Kickstarter campaign ... - davidmanze - 09-09-2018

OK the Lord did have some mercy........just nowhere near enough!




Edit: What's this price then?

"€2 400 engagés sur un objectif de 2 290 €"

Seems it's nothing but the lens of Lomography LC-A 35mm with shutter removed , camera itself is selling at 250$ now
