New f1.2 primes coming out from Sirui and a first for them: autofocus.
I know they make more cine-type lenses, but I'm intrigued enough to see how they will fare in reviews later this year. In particular, the 23mm f1.2 might be a worthy opponent to Sigma's 23mm f1.4, though I suspect the Sigma will be optically superior for stills.

The Sigma equivalents will be very hard to top.

Are they any good? My Son might want one.

These haven't shipped yet, I think November of this year. Sirui has yet to prove themselves in the autofocus arena.
The Sigma line of lenses I compare these to, is excellent. I have my eyes on the 23mm next.
