The Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 135mm f/2.5 Is a $299 Medium Format Portrait Lens

Medium format lenses are normally quite expensive and of a narrow maximum aperture. So, the prospect of a 135mm f/2.5 lens for just $299 sounds almost too good to be true. That is what the new Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 135mm f/2.5 offers. The new Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 135mm f/2.5 lens has been available for full frame mounts for a bit, but now, the company is upping the ante by introducing a version for Fujifilm's medium format GF mount without increasing the price ($299), making it quite an intriguing option for genres like portrait work.
