The L-Mount Alliance has a new member – on March 20, lens company Sirui joined the ecosystem as the ninth brand in the group. The move means that L-Mount shooters will soon have even more optics to choose from, and Sirui has already teased the lens that’s coming first to the L-Mount.
The first lens that Sirui will launch in the L-Mount format is the Aurora 85mm f/1.4, a full-frame lens geared towards portraits. Sirui’s membership inside the L-Mount means the autofocus lens will be a first-party lens, rather than a third-party lens choice. The lens is one of the brand’s first with an autofocus motor, with the light 504g weight and $499 / £456 / AU$763 list price being key selling points for the existing lens available in Nikon Z, Sony E and Fujifilm X mounts.
