Meike’s Statement Regarding the Temporary Removal of Z-Mount Lenses
Recently, rumors have circulated online regarding the removal and discontinuation of sales of Meike’s Z-mount lenses, causing concern among users and partners. Meike takes this matter very seriously and hereby clarifies: This temporary removal is a normal inventory optimization adjustment, not a cessation of sales.
To further improve product supply stability and user purchasing experience, Meike is optimizing its inventory structure, conducting quality re-inspections, and coordinating channel management for its Z-mount lens series. This work is progressing smoothly, and these lenses will be relisted for sale at the end of this month, continuing to provide Z-mount camera users with stable and reliable optical products and services.
Meike always adheres to a user-centric approach, continuously investing in R&D and quality control. We thank photography enthusiasts, distributors, and friends from all walks of life for their understanding, trust, and support. We will release relisting information through official channels as soon as possible; please stay tuned.
