"Risks

Any new venture or innovation includes an element of risk. The Trioplan 50 is no different.


Meyer Optik has a strong and experienced team of manufacturing, photography and business professionals and have carefully evaluated and mitigated all foreseeable risks and challenges, but may face unforeseen challenges".

Actually they explicitly mention the "bubble" bokeh so it's an intentional effect.
