Meike AF 33mm f/1.4 Shipping Starts

The already teased/announced Meike AF 33mm f/1.4 has now started shipping in Asia according to reports shared at the Japanese website asobinet.

What an exciting and much needed lens (*sarcasm).

No seriously. The more, the merrier. But I still believe third parties are missing out on a chance by releasing already existing AF lenses instead of coming up with something new that fills wholes in the Fujinon X mount lens lineup.

But it is what it is. And the specs are below.
