LOL 1: what happened to your post, Kllaus?
LOL 2: Tokina: "Meet the new lens, same as the old lens"

Corrected my post - the editor got confused it seems.
Well, at least the focus clutch thingy is gone and it has a new AF motor. But yes, it is silly just to extend the barrel to fit a mirrorless camera.
That design is how old? 15y?

Close enough, 14 years (2005).

Isn't what everyone does now days? Just change the mold... Except may be Samyang
RE: Tokina FIRIN 100mm f/2.8 FE macro announced - Klaus - 04-20-2019
Well, the new Samyang MF 14mm Z and 85mm Z aren't exactly dedicated designs.

Agree.
But at least for Sony the try to do the right thing.
