Optics manufacturer Zeiss hasn’t launched a dedicated mirrorless lens in awhile – but a new teaser shared to Instagram suggests that hiatus is about to come to an end. Zeiss has shared a new teaser on social media with the line “Get ready for owlsome news!” along with a photo of an owl. Because the term Otus refers to a genus of short-eared owls, I’m predicting the brand is getting ready to launch an addition to the Otus line of photography lenses.
Zeiss makes optics from smartphone camera lenses to scopes, but the company's line of camera lenses has had a quiet few years. The company launched some cinema lenses in 2021, but Mirrorless Rumors points out that the company hasn’t launched any optics focused on stills for six years.
