Polarpro announced three new 16mm f/11, 28mm f/11, and 50mm f/11 LightLeak lenses for E/R/Z/X mount:

“Get that timeless, nostalgic look straight in-camera with the PolarPro LightLeak lens. This lens brings back the timeless feel of analog photography, allowing you to instantly capture filmic-style images with your professional digital setup. It’s a useful alternative for shooting photography or videography in a unique and authentic way, providing that nostalgic feel and answering your creative calling. Each frame tells a story and will have a distinct, vintage look—characterized by rich colors, natural grain, and adjustable light leaks that digital cameras simply can’t replicate.”
