The Nisi 75mm f/0,95 Lens Is For Full Frame Mirrorless Cameras, Canon EOS R Included

Nisi 75mm F/0,95
View Post

Nisi will launch a new 75mm f/0,95 lens in 2019. The Nisi 75mm f/0.95 will be available for Canon EOS R, Nikon Z, and Sony E mounts.

Phillip Reeve tested the Nisi 75mm f/0.95. He says:

The lens is quite big and heavy as is to be expected from one with these parameters. It is a short flange/mirrorless design and will be available for several mounts […]. The prototype we saw is native E-mount and the lens covers the full frame sensor area.

Of course we weren’t able to fully evaluate the cine lenses by spending a bit of time with them at Photokina, but handling and build quality both left a good impression, the focus and aperture rings had a really nice resistance.
The emphasize of the optical design is meant to be on bokeh rendering and indeed I would describe it as very smooth. Contrast and sharpness were more than sufficient as well.

So far we have no clues about the price and the availability.

Canon EOS R Sample Images from Havana, Cuba (by Richard Bernabe)

Canon Eos R

Professional photographer Richard Bernabe had the chance to spend some time with the new Canon EOS R. And while having the EOS R in his hand he happened to be in Havana, Cuba’s capital city.

About the Canon EOS R he says:

I found the camera to be very intuitive to use, especially if you are a Canon shooter already, it fit my hands comfortably, and the image quality was very similar to that found in the Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, which is my current go-to camera body for travel and landscape photography, as well as the occasional wildlife shoot. I thought the ISO performance on the new mirrorless camera to be just a tad better than the 5D Mark IV […] but it could be my imagination. It’s certainly a subjective observation at best. The two RF lenses – the Canon Canon RF 28-70mm f/2 L USM and RF 24-105mm f/4 L IS USM were amazing performers – some of the sharpest Canon lenses I’ve ever used.

Be sure to check Richard Bernabe’s sample picture and read his opinion and first impression about the Canon EOS R. You can follow Richard Bernabe on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, or on is website.

Is The Next, Higher Tier Canon EOS R Coming in Q1 2019? [CW2]

canon rumors canon full frame mirrorlesscanon rumors canon full frame mirrorless camera

Rumor has it that Canon might announce a “full-blown” EOS R camera around February 2019, ahead of Photokina 2019.

We recommend you take it with a huge grain of salt. While entirely possible, we have some doubts and didn’t get any hint let alone a confirmation from our sources.

There are no specifications at this point and we also have a bit of a hard time to figure out what a “full-blown” EOS R might be. Something on EOS-1D X Mark II level?

What we know is that Canon is set to announce three new RF lenses in 2019.

Stay tuned.
