A few days ago I made the big 2020 rumor check, and among the not yet verified rumors there was the one talking about the fact that Venus optics would release the widest f/0.95 lens for Fujifilm X Mount.

Some people wondered if that is the 35mmF0.95 lens for Full Frame recently announced.

But it’s not.

According to information I have received, it will be a 33mm f/0.95 lens and it is scheduled for release in 2021.
