Meike will announce two new lenses at the 2026 NAB show:

• Optimized optical structure delivers delicate and clear image quality and ultimate bokeh effect.
• The lightweight body design significantly improves handheld shooting comfort.

• The F1.2 ultra-large aperture delivers exceptional bokeh and low-light shooting capabilities, empowering creative portrait and documentary works.
• A 58mm focal length is equivalent to approximately 87mm on an APS-C sensor, perfectly covering the classic golden focal length for portrait photography.

• Available in black and white
