More options is good! I can only afford L, the 'eica' bit will never be in my budget.

Interesting. Maybe we'll see the viltrox 28/1.8 L mount.

I have a couple of Viltrox lenses for my small Fujifilm setup and they are excellent and well-built. I'd be very happy to see them get an official license and start producing lenses that fill gaps - the 135mm and 28mm options already mentioned would be a great start!
