Brightin Star is teasing the launch of a new 50mm f/1,05 Full Frame manual focusing lens. Sounds like a clone of the couple of years old (and now discontinued) 7Artisans 50mm f/1.05 lens. No idea yet about pricing but the lens should be announced within days and be available in E/Z/RF/L mount versions

CineD has shared its list of the best cameras of 2025. The Nikon Zr was chosen as Cine Camera of the Year!

Key Reasons for the Win:

1. Internal RED R3D RAW Recording

   • A first at this price point — previously exclusive to much more expensive cinema cameras.

   • Delivers high-end flexibility and color grading power in post.

2. 32-Bit Float Internal Audio

   • Another industry-first in this segment — simplifies audio workflow with unmatched headroom and dynamic range.

3. No Overheating, IBIS Included

   • Unlike Canon’s EOS C50, the ZR includes in-body stabilization and runs reliably without thermal issues.

4. Large 4” LCD Screen

   • Even without a viewfinder, the massive screen gives excellent visibility and usability on set.

5. Z-Mount Flexibility

   • Opens the door for users from other systems (especially Sony E-mount) to switch — a potential “Trojan horse” feature.

6. Price-to-Performance Champion

   • At $2,197, it dramatically undercuts the competition while still delivering pro-tier features.

   • As Johnnie said: “a no-brainer” for many — and sales reflect that.
