Press release
Bad Kreuznach, Germany - July 19, 2022 – Meyer Optik Görlitz presents native versions for Nikon Z and Canon RF of the lenses released to date - Primoplan 58 f1.9 II, Primoplan 75 f1.9 II, Lydith 30 f3.5 II, and Trioplan 50 f2.8 II. The lenses are available in stock and can be ordered as of now.
"The successful launch of Trioplan 100 f2.8 II and Trioplan 35 f2.8 II as native Nikon Z and Canon RF versions has shown us, that there is a great demand for native Z and RF versions of our lenses, despite their very good adaptability," says Timo Heinze, Managing Director Meyer Optik / OPC Optics. "After an intensive preparation phase, which took quite a bit longer than usual due to the extremely volatile economic situation (capacity bottlenecks, lack of resources, extreme price & availability fluctuations for raw materials, etc.), we are now especially happy about the completion of the new versions of our lenses."
The lenses Primoplan 58 f1.9 II, Primoplan 75 f1.9 II, Lydith 30 f3.5 II and Trioplan 50 f2.8 II can now be ordered, for the first time also for Nikon Z and Canon RF, at www.meyer-optik-goerlitz.com.
What are the next steps?
The Biotar 58 f1.5 II currently in final production steps is expected to be released within the next 4 weeks. Series production of the Biotar 75 f1.5 II was started in parallel, but the current situation has led to considerable delays in that project, so that a release before the end of September is not to be expected here. For both lenses, the preceding prototype tests have created a particularly high level of anticipation, as the results surpass the historical originals while retaining the popular image styles. In addition, new lenses are in planning / development and will be released early next year.
