I will not bother you with meaningless paragraphs explaining the meaning of the word Plena – we have plenty of clickbait websites that will just do that. Here are a few hints from the video:
- Very large lens
- Prime lens
- Appears to be a portrait lens
- Bubble bokeh
- The Plena engraving is similar to the Noct
B&H categorizes Plena as a lens:
Nikon is expected to announce two new lenses this year that are still listed on their latest lens roadmap:
- NIKKOR Z 35mm f/1.2 S lens (S-Line)
- NIKKOR Z 135mm f/1.8 S lens (S-Line)
A while back we also had some rumors for Nikon coming up with a new lens with defocus control similar to the Nikon AF DC Nikkor 135mm f/2.0D lens for F-mount:
I will jump straight to the rumors – now, I have to be careful when reporting rumors, because the Rumors Police will get me again:) I think Plena will be a new 135mm f/1.8 lens, possibly with defocus control (as many of you already suggested in the comments section of the previous post). I am still waiting on a confirmation and will keep you updated. Stay tuned!
Oh yes, another rumor – it will be very expensive (Plena’expensive):
I’m gonna guess it’s going to be Plena’expensive. 😁
