Re: What lens would you like to see next?

Ah, it is indeed, I should have clarified that I was speaking about rectilinear lenses. I really doubt that we would see an 11 mm rectilinear pancake lens for NX... but others have gone to some extremes to use a non-retrofocal design. There is a Voigtlander wide angle for Nikon mount that protrudes far into the body and can only be used with mirror lockup. At least we don't have a mirror to worry about, so while it's probably possible, I think it's an extremely unlikely design choice.

About lens design, I mostly know just what I've been able to pick up reading in the science and technology subforum. Take things there with a grain of salt though until you've been there long enough to know who's reliable and who is actually full of crap.
