Hi Fellow Photozoners,
Samyang caused quite a stir with some of their lenses. (By the way, I would love to see a 24mm tilt/shift lens from Samyang.) But I wonder can we expect more brands like Samyang or are there already brands in the same league? I came across Arax for example, but don't know much about it yet.

There will be a 35mm 1.9 DX announcing in the near future by a Chinese manufacture. it has the look of those range finder type lens.
See the pic of its alpha model here: http://img3.fengniao.com/forum/attachpics/525/36/20967187.jpg
and here: http://img3.fengniao.com/forum/attachpics/525/36/20967165.jpg
The selling points are: 3 ED lens, 12blade aperture, and a price at about US$100.00
Also some sample shots (down sampled)here: http://img3.fengniao.com/forum/attachpics/524/104/20940730.jpg
and here: http://img3.fengniao.com/forum/attachpics/524/104/20940751.jpg
The background blur seems pretty creamy.
Sorry i dont know what brand will they sell it under. Posibly Mitakon.
