After reporting that Zeiss has discontinued its legendary Otus lenses for DSLR cameras, Zeiss alerted PetaPixel that while, yes, it has adapted its product portfolio, some of the company's DSLR lenses are so popular that the company will keep making them.
Zeiss has launched the next chapter in its storied history of cinema lenses. Zeiss' brand-new Horizon anamorphic lenses for full-frame cameras deliver a 2x squeeze factor, pronounced oval bokeh, and a fully motorized design. The seven Horizon anamorphic primes cover focal lengths from 35mm to 200mm.
Zeiss has been very busy in the cinema lens segment ahead of the Cine Gear Expo in Los Angeles this weekend. Alongside new Horizon 2x Anamorphic lenses for full-frame cameras, Zeiss unveiled Panoptes 65 lenses that, as their name suggests, cover large-format 65mm cinema camera sensors.
As Zeiss turns the page to its Otus ML series of lenses for full-frame mirrorless cameras, it appears that the company's legendary Otus DSLR lenses are finally finished.
