Chinese Autofocus Zoom Lenses Coming Soon


There are multiple Chinese autofocus zoom lenses going into production soon that could be from VILTROX, SIRUI, 7Artisans, LAOWA, and DZOFilm according to weibo.

Big news! Another domestic brand is developing a zoom auto lens. Mr. Ma just got the exclusive news, and it is a big zoom lens! So, there are currently three domestic brands developing zoom auto lenses, one of which is developing full-frame and APS-C zoom lenses (common focal lengths) at the same time; the zoom auto lenses being developed by the other two are currently unknown.

Chinese manufacturers are expanding their lens lineups with Viltrox being one of the first to tease an upcoming zoom. In fact Viltrox just announced a nonautofocus zoom lens that we haven’t covered here, but it is going to be a stupid expensive lens the 10x zoom VILTROX LUNA 42-420mm T5.6 Large-Format Cine Zoom for medium format sensors. It can create a 60mm image circle that comfortably covers the sensors in the GFX100SII and Hasselblad X2D with a T5.6 aperture.

Chinese lens makers have caught up to global lens makers in almost every way and with Chinese autofocus zoom lenses on the way photography could become exponentially more affordable in the not-too-distant future.
