    They will respond but it takes a while, I know they aren't taking an orders until December right now, got a bit of luck and was able to snag one for review... SWEEEEEEET... IMHO best wide for the M43 format right now(Although the Olympus 12mm f2 is close, I tend to shoot wide open a lot so I'm biased by my shooting style, and the price diff certainly helps lol).

    I am eagerly anticipating this lens too and got on their notification list. When it's in, I want it. This clearly is a lens that we've been waiting for. I love the Voigtlander and this will be a great wider/cheaper version...

    I have two in the living room. My partner Michael and I have been testing them.

    They are using a previous mold (from another lens -- due to cost) and this presents
    a bit of play in the mounting of the lens.

    They are working on this as it presents issue with video. If you focus one way
    then the other the mount/lens twists and is very present in video. You will notice it
    quite a bit.

    They sent another (Hence the two not just one in the living room) and it still has
    problems with being to tight (I'm a tester -- it's to be expected).

    Michael's lens on the other hand is great and free of these problems (since
    we have informed them of these issues they are fixing them as best
    as possible.)

    The manufacturers are quite receptive to our testing information which is good.

    I will be interested to see the final product and if our suggestions
    affect the final lens design.

    They also have idea's (optional attachments) for us video folk, interesting
    ideas from them. Could be quite good.
