I've read on the Luminous Landscape forum that the lenses will be by Schneider-Kreuznach and that one of them is a 3.5/35.

It's name?

"Flektogon"

Lens list:

Zeiss Flektogon 3.5/35 HFT PQS
Schneider Super-Angulon AFD 2.8/50 PQS
Schneider Xenotar AFD 2.8/80 PQS
Schneider Tele-Xenar AFD 4.0/150 PQS
Schneider Tele-Xenar AFD 2.8/180 PQ
Schneider Variogon AFD 4.6/60-140 PQS

Wow! Price will be in the sky I guess, what you think ?

[bob955i]

More than likely Attila.

It's interesting that it's designed to take either film or digital backs with the film backs being either 6 x 4.5 and 6 x 6 - the backs are rotatable like the Mamiya RB67.

I'm sure it will be closer to the 20xxx than the 10xxx.

Evidently Schneider has obtained license for Flektogon name.

This kind of stuff will always be out of my possibilities, so I don't even stop and dream about it...
