Meyer-Optic Görlitz is back again and they are prepared to launch three new lens designs that should be suitable for modern mirrorless cameras. Sadly their first relaunch attempt was not successful due to a variety of reasons so let’s hope this attempt is a more successful one.
“We are currently revising the entire portfolio and are expected to release the first optimized lens at the end of November. This is the Trioplan 100 f2.8 II. The other lenses such as Trioplan 50, Lydith 30 or Primoplan 75 will follow (presumably) in monthly intervals.”
Meyer Optik Görlitz version II lenses:
- Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 100 f/2.8 II: “With our Trioplan 100 f2.8 II we present you the classic of the Meyer Optik Görlitz family in a new, revised version. The optimized mechanics, the improved optical design and a newly designed lens coating enable the best Trioplan pictures of all times. In addition, the minimum focussing distance has been reduced to 0.9m. The Trioplan 100, worldwide known for its distinctive soapbubble bokeh, offers photographers the opportunity to rediscover the artistic soul of photography in times of point-and-shoot, instagram snapshots and pixel battles from major manufacturers. With our Trioplan 100 f2.8 II you create unique images and stand out from the crowd.”
- Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 50 f/2.9 II: “Our Trioplan 50 f2.9 II has been redesigned from scratch. A new mechanical design based on the Trioplan 100 f2.8 II now offers photographers an excellent handling of the 50mm focal length from the Trioplan family. By optimizing the optical design, it is now possible to focus on infinite sharpness even at aperture f2.9 and thus nothing stands in the way of versatile use. Of course, the Trioplan 50 f2.9 II also draws the famous soapbubble bokeh and at shorter distances a light swirl is created in the bokeh of the image. Like all current Meyer Optik Görlitz lenses, the Trioplan 50 f2.9 II was also designed for full format, but can of course also be used on APS-C cameras.“
- Meyer Optik Görlitz Lydith 30 f/3.5 II: “Like our Trioplan 50 f2.9 II, the new Lydith 30 f3.5 II has undergone a complete mechanical redesign. Haptics and handling could be improved and at the same time the compact construction could be maintained. The optical improvements support the brilliant sharpness over the entire image, as well as the faithful color reproduction of the photographed object. The imaging performance of the Lydith 30 f3.5 II achieved in this way leads to its special charm.“
Coming for Canon EF, Fuji X, Leica L, Leica M, M42, MFT, Nikon F, Pentax K and Sony E mounts.
