News Meike 55mm F1.8 "Pro" fullframe AF L-Mount lens

[Nevyn72]

Bear in mind that there's a cheap 50/1.8 but also a more expensive "Pro" 55/1.8. The cheaper one has no aperture ring and I think someone commented that the coatings are worse on Meike's non-Pro lenses. I don't know what other differences there are.

Yeah, but for the PRO price i can buy a Lumix 50mm F1.8. And that might just be a better option for matching the footage of 2 camera's. I can buy the Lumix for €369,- in the Netherlands brand new, and even cheaper second hand. For video that might be a much better option, but at the other hand - I can buy the Meike F1.8 for €159,- brand new.
