The Two Awesome Announcements from Brightin Star at CP+ 2026
Our take
At CP+ 2026, Brightin Star captivates the photography community with two extraordinary lens announcements. Designed for the Leica M mount, the new 35mm f1.7 APO lens promises unparalleled optical excellence and artistic expression. Meanwhile, the innovative 50mm f2 Tri-Sight lens, tailored for full-frame mirrorless camera mounts, introduces a unique perspective that echoes the creative spirit found in offerings from brands like Lomography and Lensbaby. Previously impressed by their collaboration with Funleader, we are excited to see how their latest innovations elevate our photography experience.

At CP+ 2026, Brightin Star is announcing two really fascinating pieces of glass. For the Leica M mount, they're announcing a new 35mm f1.7 APO lens. Then, for full-frame mirrorless camera mounts, they're offering up the new 50mm f2 Tri-Sight lens; which is something that we typically only see from brands like Lomography and Lensbaby. The last time we tested lenses from them was a collaboration they did with Funleader. We're also currently using their 35mm f2 APO and loving it a whole lot.
