These three new lenses are oddballs, but they’re outselling traditional optics in Japan as a 25-200mm zoom, 1.4x macro, and an unusually affordable f/1.2 lens top sales charts

November was a fantastic month for new lenses – but the lenses topping the sales lists in Japan all have unusual features. Japanese retailer Yodobashi has shared the sales data for lenses for the second half of November, a list that’s topped by unusual optics.

The top three lenses for the retailer are all new launches with relatively unusual features: the Tamron 25-200mm f/2.8-5.6 Di III VXD G2, the Sony FE 100mm f/2.8 Macro GM OSS, and the Canon RF 45mm f/1.2 STM.
