Those "Pasha style" sample shots that are presented for the E-mount version on the product page are quite impressive.

New announcement from Cosina Voigtländer for December release (specific dates not yet announced). There is already the discontinued 35/1.2 SE E-mount version that I have, I guess this will be optically identical. This new version (E-mount only) has aperture ring declick option (whereas the SE version didn't). I don't shoot any video and for me the declick option is not very useful but some may appreciate it. The new E-mount version is 380g while SE version was 387g so they could fit in the declick option while still making the new lens a little bit lighter.

This new version is stated to be based on VM mount 35/1.2 IV lens but would be optimized for E-mount and Z-mount in the respective versions as usual. I think VM version III and IV are optically identical though and E-mount 35/1.2 SE was based on version III.

I'm very happy with my SE version but I also pre-ordered this new version in E-mount to see which version I prefer in the end.

I was hoping to see an announcement for a new pancake 28/2.x that would pair perfectly with Septon 40/2, but no such announcement yet. I hope there would still be such a new release hopefully sometime next year.

This is simultaneously cool, but also somewhat disappointing.
