It seems that Miyazaki San is preparing a new lens for this September, a fast 50mm based on a Sonnar optical design:

Reading Miyazaki's San handwritten comments, it is pretty obvious that the lens has a manual coma adjuster on the rear element...

I've always enjoyed looking at his creations.
They are something different from the normal.
I've always thought they are quite reasonably priced considering they are bespoke.
