Yeah looks cool. 35mm and 45mm for full frame. But I'm sad to see aspheric lenses included. It will hurt bokeh unless they are made like Leica does them.

I wouldn't want an f0.95 lens that didn't have aspheric elements as the performance would be crap. I have several Schneider cine lenses with aspheric elements and they have beautiful bokeh.

If the bokeh is free of onion rings I'm for it. A horrible example is the new Meike 50mm f/1.2. Onion rings everywhere. Strange priorities from the maker if you ask me.
But people don't seem to mind.

Define crap. If you are looking to shoot landscapes at f/0.95 or astro and want corner to corner sharpness, then you will need aspherical lens elements. Probably even more than just one. If you are looking for general shooting/portraits than you don't. Try a Mitakon f/0.95 lens or 7Artisans. They don't use any aspherical elements and are sharp from f/0.95 in the center.

The 35mm f/0.95 would be interessing for me - portrait / sensual work most times.
I love to work with the Mitakon 50mm f/0.95, would be a interessting wideangle for that.
