After the YN 85mm F1.8R DF DSM, Yongnuo might soon release a second lens for the RF mount.
It seems the YN 50mm F1.8R DF DSM has been displayed at P&I Shanghai (image on top). No information about the release to the general public and about the specifications.

Rumor has it that lens manufacturer Yongnuo might release a 85mm F1.8R DF DSM lens for the EOS R system.
Asobinet reports:
This lens has a new logo design, a lens configuration of 9 elements in 8 groups, a 7-element aperture, a minimum focusing distance of 0.8m, a 58mm filter, a stepping motor, 67 x 88mm, and approximately 380g.
Well, I hope the rumor is reliable :-)
Interesting Canon rumor coming from Asia. YONGNUO might be set to soon release a lens for the Canon RF mount.
An image shared by CameraBeta shows EXIF information suggesting a YN35mm F1.4 UWM was used on a Canon EOS R6 body (see image above). Interesting.
While this would be one of the very few third party lens for the RF mount. However, if it is an autofocus lens (it seems) then the question is how Yongnuo has solved the patent infringement issues Canon already raised with Viltrox.
Let me know what your thoughts are.

We know the brand Yongnuo for their inexpensive lenses and flashes. Here is something different and rather unusual.
The Yongnuo YN450 is a camera with a 4/3 sensor and Canon EF mount, and like a smartphone it’s powered by Android.
As Cinema5D sums it up:
The Yongnuo YN450 is a smart mirrorless camera with Android operating system and a 16MP micro four thirds image sensor. It features a Canon EF mount, a 5″ multi-touch 1080p display, as well as a 4G SIM card slot for instant content sharing.
Yongnuo decided to equip their camera with the Canon EF lens mount, which might have to do with Yongnuo’s lens portfolio, which is based on Canon EF mount (and Nikon F mount). However, that mount makes the whole camera-lens combination very bulky and actually prevents one from being able to use more compact micro four thirds lenses, which would be a better match for the sensor, in my opinion.
Who need such a camera, and does it make sense?
