Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mk III arrives for full-frame mirrorless cameras

Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mark III

A new version of the Mitakon Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 is here – and now it available to fit full-frame mirrorless cameras from Canon and Nikon, as well as Sony. The Speedmaster 50mm f/0.95 Mark III not only is available for these mounts for the first time, but also has an updated design that reduces the size of this manual-focus prime, but also reduces issues with flare.

Made by Chinese company ZY Optics, this lens is constructed from 10 elements in seven groups - including five UD elements, and one high-refractive index element.
