Is Venus Optics is working on a new Laowa wide-angle zoom autofocus mirrorless lens?
A few days ago, Venus Optics conducted a survey for a new Laowa fast wide-angle zoom lens:

Today, when the Thypoch 24-50mm f/2.8 full-frame autofocus zoom lens was officially announced, Venus Optics released a teaser for a new Laowa lens with three rings (aperture ring, zoom ring, and a focusing ring):

The new lens will most likely be a wide-angle zoom autofocus mirrorless lens with a front element that allows normal filter use (12-20mm f/2.8?). The new lens is expected to be released for the 2026 P&E show in China in late April or May. Stay tuned for details.
