Four new lens models from Schneider Kreuznach and Samyang are hinted at for the L-Mount system.
In the ever-evolving world of visual storytelling, the L-Mount Alliance is making significant strides. With an increasing number of lens options, growing third-party support, and improved affordability and accessibility, thanks to the addition of Samyang, the alliance is rapidly evolving.
Recent developments at the International Broadcasting Convention (IBC) 2025 in Amsterdam showcased the future of the L-Mount lens ecosystem. Four new autofocus zoom lenses confirmed for L-Mount were exhibited, hailing from manufacturers Sigma, Samyang, Viltrox, and Panasonic. Sigma announced new lenses such as the 35mm F1.2 DG II | Art and 20-200mm F3.5-6.3 DG | Contemporary. Samyang and Viltrox announced several lenses, including the AF 16mm f/1.8 L and AF 28mm f/4.5 L. Panasonic is expected to announce a 100-500mm f/5.0-7.1 zoom lens.
Two fresh announcements for the L-Mount and Sony FE lens systems were made: the 60-180mm f/2.8 and 28-135mm f/2.8. However, prices and release dates for these new lenses, as well as the Sony FE lenses, have yet to be disclosed, with a launch expected sometime in late 2025 or early 2026.
